DEATH OF MRS. T. W. MARSHALL
Another old and respected resident of Devonport, in the person of Mrs. T. W. Marshall, of Middle road, passed away at her husband’s residence late on Sunday night. She had been ailing for some time, but did not take to her bed till Monday night. The immediate cause of death was bronchial pneumonia. Deceased was born at London in 1840 and was therefore in her 77th year. With her mother and father, the late Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Hodges, she came to Tasmania in 1888 and settled at West Tamar. The family made the voyage in the sailing ship “Raglan,” racing the “Challenger,” in which Mr. Marshall came out. She married Mr. T. W. Marshall at West Tamar and after some years came to this district. The last 16 years were spent between Latrobe and Devonport and about 8 years at the latter town. Had she lived till July the old couple would have celebrated the diamond jubilee of their wedding. There were 14 in family, five of whom –three girls and two boys – predeceased her. The surviving sons are Messrs. A. J. Marshall, of Sydney; Cr. A. W. Marshall, of Devonport; J. B. Marshall of New Zealand; E. F. Marshall of Devonport; F. B. Marshall, of Melbourne and W.
