1887
HAMLEY BRIDGE, April 26,
A gloom has been cast over the whole
district by the death of Mr. William
Howard, of Alma, which took place last
night after a few days' illness . He was
one of the oldest residents of Alma, and
was highly respected by all for his sterling
character and kindly sympathy. In the
early days of the colony he was in the
employ of the late Mr. William Peacock,
and was afterwards farming at Enfield.
