DEATH NOTICE. Death of Mrs. J. H. Monger. It is with extreme regret we find it our duty to chronicle the death of Mrs J. H. Monger, of Faversham House, York, which sad event took place at her residence on Sunday afternoon last. The deceased had been a great sufferer for many months past, and with the exception of a few brief intervals was for some weeks confined to her room. The deceased lady was highly esteemed by those included within the circle of her acquaintance, and very general regret at her death was expressed on all sides. The cause of death was cancer. Mrs. Monger leaves behind a family of seven—three sons and four daughters, to whom much sympathy is extended in their bereavement.

She is buried in East Perth Cemetery.
