MR, J. J. MARSHMAN.
The news of the sudden death of Mr. Joshua Jesse Marshman on Saturday last (writes our Brim correspondent came as a great shock to the community. The deceased was apparently in his usual health that morning, and after attending to some sick horses, took them to a paddock close , to the house, it being then about 12 noon. Shortly after Mrs. Marshman called him to dinner. As there was no reply and she could not see him at the sheds or stables, she concluded he had gone to a neighbor's. At 6 p.m. she sent her grandson, Willie Tremewan, and another lad to get the cows, and on their way, about four chains from the house, they saw him lying dead near the gate, with a stick in his hand which he had to make the gate secure. It is surmised he had heart failure, and had lain there since 12 o'clock. A brother in South Australia died under similar circumstances a few years ago while returning from a picnic. The deceased gentleman was 63 years of age, and was born in Penfield, South Australia. He came to the Mallee, along with a number of South Australian settlers, about 26 years ago, afterwards giving up farming pursuits for his trade as a blacksmith. A few years ago he went on the land again. The anxiety caused by the bad seasons and loss of horses through this drought, combined with the after effects of two serious accidents, apparently undermined his constitution, and prematurely aged him. He was one of the leading men in the local Methodist Church, and took a keen and active interest In the Sunday school. His place as an earnest Christian worker will be hard to fill. He leaves a widow and grown up family of three daughters and two sons to mourn their sad loss; also three sisters and two brothers, viz., Mrs. M. Hovey, Brim; Mrs. Amor, Warracknabeal; Mrs, Barr, Lismore; Mr. Albert Marshman. Winchelsea and Mr. Arthur Marshman, Bena, for all of whom much sympathy is expressed
