SUDDEN DEATH
An old resident of Devonport in the person of Mr. Michael Burke, passed away during Friday at the residence of his son, Mr. William Burke. The deceased, who was over 80 years of age, had been in failing health for some months, but he was able to get about the town during the previous afternoon and the end was consequently unexpected. A few years back the deceased was appointed ranger to the Devonport council, a position that he held until a short time ago when he was compelled by failing health to relinquish it.
