My ever alert correspondent in Dorset has pointed out to me that there was a typo (or mistake by the optical character recognition software) in the below death notice. (The newspaper is not at fault this time!) Correctly it should have been: At Fontmell Rectory, Dorset, on the 6th inst., aged 36 years, Mary, the beloved wife of the Rev. John BROWNE, curate of that parish. FONTMELL (FONTMELL MAGNA) is close to Blandford.
