Note

DALTON, Thomas Ashburton - The death occurred yesterday of Mr Thomas Dalton, of "Kelk Lodge," (North-East Belt); aged 78 years. Mr Dalton, who was a' colonist of 50 years', standing, was a native of Kelk, Yorkshire, England. After spending four years in Canada, as a young man, he returned to Yorkshire and married and with Mrs Dalton sailed for New Zealand in the ship Lancashire Witch in 1863. For a number of years Mr Dalton resided at Rangiora, and the country being practically in its virgin state, he experienced many of those difficulties incidental of pioneer life. In 1876, Mr Dalton took up a tract of country in its native state in the Wakanui district, which he successfully farmed until about five years ago, when he disposed of his farm and- retired, residing up till the time of his death in Ashburton. During the past three years he had not enjoyed the best of health, but it was not till eight weeks ago that he was compelled to, take to his bed. Mr Dalton was one of those sturdy and determined pioneers who contributed so largely to the progress of the Dominion. He was a thoroughly practical farmer, a good father, and a sterling friend. A few months ago Mr and Mrs Dalton celebrated their golden wedding. He was the father of a large family (six sons and four daughters), all of whom, are married and settled in various parts of the Dominion. ^[4]
