   Death at Monkerai. — The death occurred at Monkerai on Wednesday last of Mrs Hibbs, aged 82, a very old and highly esteemed resident of that locality. As the deceased lady has been very feeble during recent years, her demise was not unexpected. She is the mother of Mr Thos Hicks, of Dungog. Her remains were interred on the property, alongside those of her late husband's yesterday, the Rev B. Hobson officiating at the graveside. We tender sympathy to the bereaved relatives.
