Death and Funeral of Mr. W. Ashworth
We regret to announce the death of Mr. Wm. Ashworth, who passed peacefully away at his own home early on Wednesday morning last. Deceased had been suffering for some years from a tubercular disease, which, during the last few months, made rapid progress, and it was seen some little time ago that the end was not far off, though it came with a greater suddenness than was anticipated. The deceased had been in business as a carpenter and joiner in the village for about fourteen years, and was highly respected by everyone with whom he came in contact. He held the Chairmanship of the Helping Hand Club, until illness compelled him to resign the same last year, much to the sorrow of the members. The funeral took place on Saturday when the deceased was laid to rest in the churchyard at Coates, amidst general signs of regret and sympathy. The Rev. J.T. Skyrme[1] of Whittlesey, performed the last sad rites, taking the service in the chapel (of which deceased had been so active a member) and also at the graveside. The coffin which was of elm, with black fittings, bearing the inscription: "William Ashworth; born June 19th 1859; died April 30th 1913" was carried shoulder high by four of his friends -fellow- members of the chapel - Messrs. J. Woodcock, J. Tarry, J. W. Bedford, and J. Barnes. The chief mourners were: Mrs. Ashworth, (widow), Mr. and Mrs. J. Furness (son-in-law and daughter), Mr. and Mrs. J. Ashworth (son and daughter-in-law), Mr. and Mrs. G. Ashworth (son and daughter-in-law), Miss D. Ashworth (daughter), Dorothy Ashworth (granddaughter), Mr. and Mrs. Tyers, Mr. and Mrs. Garner, Mr. and Mrs. W. Carter, and Mrs. T. Ashworth. Others present included Mr. Joel Blunt. Mr. and Mrs. James Blunt, Mr. James Searle, Mr. J. Barrett, Mrs. T. Rust, Mrs. J. Ruff, and many others. The floral tributes were very beautiful.
