    3. Saturday 31 Aug 1844 (p. 3, col. 6-7) Deaths. In Castle Street, on Monday last the 26th instant, Mr. Thos. CALDWELL, in the 82nd year of his age. He was for half a century a chorister in the Carlisle Cathedral, and upwards of 40 years parish clerk of St. Mary's Church. He was a well-known and skilful disciple of Isaac WALTON, and might be seen throwing his line, early o' mornings, at Eden side, until a short time previous to his death. As cicerone to parties visiting the Cathedral he had long been familiar, and the amount of "perquisites" falling his way during his long tenure of office would be considerable. He was, we believe, four times married, and was a great-grandfather his sons' sons having families. The "great bell," which he had tolled so often for the dead, was tolled for himself on the evening of his decease. He was throughout life much and deservedly respected. At his residence, Swifts Row, on Friday the 23rd instant, in his 28th year, Mr. John SOWERBY, eldest son of the late Mr. John SOWERBY, flax dresser, in this city, and nephew of Mr. William SOWERBY, timber merchant,-much respected.
