OBITUARIES
We (Free Press) regret to hear of the death of Mr. J.S. THOMAS, which sad event took place at Whittlesea on Sunday last. Mr. THOMAS has resided at Whittlesea for many years; in fact we believe he was “the oldest inhabitant”. He always took a lively interest in all matters connected with Whittlesea, the district around and the natives of Ox Kraal, Kamastone and other locations. No committee was complete without his name to it. Mr. THOMAS caught cold on a journey to Grahamstown, which settled on his chest, death resulting from congestion of the lungs. We tender our deep sympathy to Mrs. THOMAS and family in their sad bereavement.
Saturday 29 November 1884
DIED at Whittlesea on Sunday 23rd November 1884, after a short illness, John Stewart THOMAS (eldest son of the late Rev. J.S. THOMAS), aged 41 years and 10 days, leaving a widow and 9 young children to mourn their irreparable loss. Deeply regretted. Friends at a distance will please accept this notice.
DEATH OF MR. JAMES STEWART THOMAS
We regret to hear of the death of Mr. James Stewart THOMAS, JP of Whittlesea, which sad event took place unexpectedly on Sunday afternoon, the 23rd instant, and cast a gloom over the whole village and neighbourhood. Deceased at his death was only 41 years of age, and was the eldest son of the late Rev. THOMAS, who was killed some years ago in Kafirland. He has been in business in Whittlesea for nearly eighteen years, and was always respected as a most straightforward and upright man. As a public man he always took an interest in the welfare of the village and neighbourhood, and was exceedingly liberal in everything connected with religious and educational matters. It will be many years before his place will be filled, or his memory forgotten by his many friends in the neighbourhood. He leaves a widow and nine young children to mourn their irreparable loss. The great esteem in which he was held was exemplified by the very large attendance at his funeral, which took place on Tuesday afternoon last, and his widow and family have the sympathy of all classes of the community.
