A sad death, occurred in the Private Hos pital on Thursday last, when Mr. Henry Braby, brother of Mr. F. L. Braby, of Kyogle, joined the great majority, the im mediate, cause of death - being pernicious anaemia. The deceased was a stranger to these parts, having arrived here some three weeks since, thinking the change might re sult in improved health.-However, from the day of his arrival his condition gradually became worse, and despite the efforts of Dr. Greer and the nursing staff of the Hospital the sufferer sank into the deep slumber of death. The funeral took place on Friday afternoon, the Anglican burial service being read by the Rev. A. R. Pegler. The obsequies were attended to by Mr. G. J. Grove. The late Mr. Braby, who was 58 years of age, was an Englishman by birth, and had been a resident of Northern Queens land for a number of years, where he fol lowed the calling of Consulting Engineer. In connection with his profession he had patented several inventions, one of which necessitated a trip to Glasgow, where he secured a first prize for Australian work manship in the engineering section of the Glasgow Exhibition of 1901. At the time of his death he was engaged in completing a new process for treating refractory ores.— ' Kyogle Exauiinor.' - '
