Obituary MR. J. S. CANTRELL. The death occurred at his residence, Morton Street, East Moree, on Wednesday morning, of Mr. James Stanley Cantrell. The deceased, who was 34 years of age, was the second son of Mr. and Mrs. James Richard Cantrell, of Campbelltown, Sydney. Born at Rosedale, the late Mr. Cantrell, in his younger days, was a keen footballer and cricketer. He joined the Loco. Department of the railway service in 1911, and after serving at Werris Creek and various other places, came to Moree. A little over three years ago he married Alice, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. G. E. Neeves, of East Moree, and went to live in Morton Street, where he resided up to the time of his death. He was greatly interested in both football and cricket, especially the former, and occupied a prominent position in the East Moree Football Club — last year's premiers. Early in January he underwent an operation for appendicitis. He had barely recovered from the operation when he suffered an attack of pneumonia, from which he never recovered. He leaves a widow to mourn her loss. There were no children of the marriage. The late Mr Cantrell, during his residence in Moree, had made many friends, and his death came as a great shock to them. Besides his father and mother, one brother (Mr. Thomas William Cantrell, of Valley Heights) and one sister (Mrs. S. Bell, of East Moree), survive him. The funeral took place this afternoon and was largely attended. The remains were interred in the Church of England portion of the cemetery, the Rev. A. W. Coates administering the last sad rites. A large number of members of the P.A.F.S. (of which society deceased was a member) and of the railway staff preceded the hearse from the gates to the graveside.
