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.   A dutchman named Osker S.

J.P. RITCHIE, Francis Lennox CANNING, Esq., A.R.I.B.A., to Charlotte Annie, second Daughter of the late E.T. BARKER, Esq., of Grahamstown. – No Cards.   DIED,- At Queenstown, on the 12th November, 1884, Alexander PETRIE, of the Telegraph department there, in his sixteenth year, son of Alexander PETRIE, for many years Postmaster and Chief Constable of Queenstown.   Tuesday December 9, 1884   BIRTH,- At Queenstown, on the morning of the 30th November, 1884, the wife of Mr. W.J. MARSHALL, of a Son.   DIED,- At Queenstown, on the evening of the 30th November, 1884, the ant son of Mr. And Mrs. W.J. MARSHALL.   Friday December 12, 1884   We much regret to have to announce that Mr. David BOTHA who was so fearfully hurt a short  time since by the falling of a rock has succumbed to his injuries.  The deceased gentleman was a young and energetic farmer and was much respected in his neighbourhood, beyond the Kei in Gangobellas country.   Tuesday December 16, 1884   SUDDEN DEATH.- We regret to hear that Mrs SAMUEL died very suddenly on Tuesday last.  She had been prepared for confirmation, and was on her way to St. Philip’s Church to receive the solemn rite at the hand s of Bishop WEBB, when she suddenly fell down and expired almost immediately. – P.E. Telegraph.   FUNERAL OF MR. D.P. BOTHA. On Tuesday last the remains of the late Mr. BOTHA, second son of Mr. Lewis BOTHA, of this District, were consigned to the grave at his farm, “Forest Range,”  The Funeral was attended by a very large number of friends of the deceased, both English and Dutch, many of them coming from a considerable distance.  No less than 130 persons were present, testifying to the great respect in which Mr. BOTHA was held by his neighbours and all who knew him.  His death is much felt as he was a man greatly esteemed by all with whom he came in contact, and his early death has deprived the country of one of the most promising young men on the Frontier. The greatest sympathy is felt for Mrs. BOTHA and family in their sad bereavement.   MARRIED,- At Barkly East, on the 29th November, 1884, by Rev. E.Y.
