Death of Father

24 May 1876 GRANT PETER J J 8654/1876 WILLIAM ELIZA LAMBTON

FUNERAL. The Friends of the late Mr. PETER GRANT are respectfully requested to attend his FUNERAL, to move from his late resideence, Lambton, at 3 o'clock this day (FRIDAY), for Wallsend. RICHARD THOMAS, 714 Undertaker.^[3] DEATH OF ALDERMAN GRANT.— I am sorry to have to report the death of Mr. Alderman Peter Grant, who drew his last breath at about ten o'clock on Wednesday night. Mr. Grant received an accident in the Waratah tunnels several months ago, whereby his lungs were injured by a fractured rib penetrating them. Since that he has been unable to perform any laborious work. The miners, however, placed him in the position of check- weighman, which office he has held up to about a fortnight ago, when he became so ill as to be forced to take to his bed. On Wednesday he fancied himself a little better, but at about ten o'clock at night he was taken with a violent fit of coughing, causing an effusion of blood, which choked him. Mr. Grant was universally respected. He has been twice elected an alderman of the Lambton Municipal Council, and has taken an active part in all public movements for the advancement of the district. He has also held for a number of years a prominent position in connection with the Waratah Lodge of the Miners' Union. The funeral took place on Friday, when the members of the Druids' and Orange Lodges, of which he was a member, walked in procession. Mr. Grant leaves a widow and a small family to mourn their loss.^[4]
