Death of
Richard Birch
Mr. Richard Birch died at
his late home in Delhi on Thursday [26 May
1921], and was laid to rest in the
Delhi Cemetery on Saturday [28 May 1921].
The late gentleman had been
ill for some time, but was getting along encouragingly until a few
days before his death, when he suffered a bad turn. The end came
quite suddenly.
Mr. Birch was a highly
esteemed citizen and had many true friends. Beside a widow, he
leaves two sons:
Wilmot of Jordan Station, and Lorne at home.
The funeral was largely
attended.
