Death of Mr Martin, Manager of Denaby Co-Operative Stores.

We regret to record the death of Mr Martin, which took place at his residence, Conisborough, on Thursday week, at the age of 46 years.

Deceased, who was much respected, had only been married to his present wife about four months. Much sympathy is expressed on all sides with the widow. Mr Martin had taken a prompt action in the church work at Denaby main, and also acted as churchwarden; and it is needless to say that he will be very much missed.

The Co-operative society lost has a good servant, deceased having for several years officiated as manager, which responsible post he filled with much credit. The internment took place at Conisborough cemetery on Monday last. The Rev. J. Brooks officiated.
