whom are married. The family consists of William, Dot (Mrs Brock), Henry, Alice (Mrs Jones), Jack (W.A.), Ted, Charles and Mollie (Mrs Cwyford. The late Mr Limmer was a quiet, genial man, and highly esteemed for his fine character, being always prepared to help any one, but never thought of saying a harsh word. He was a devoted husband and an exemplary father, and it was a great joy to him to see all his family settled in life. He was treasurer of the Hazel Glen Church of England, and the vicar of that church (the Rev Watt) conducted the service at the Diamond
