Moxley, at his residence, 81 Park road.
Gloucester, England. He was the young
est son of the Rev. Stephen Moxley, LII.
D., late Rector of Drimoleague. What
renders the circumstance of melancholy
interest is that DR.. Moxley was to have

name prominently before the public
few years ago. DR.. Moxley passed
quietly away on tho morning of July 2let
1.-TWO hours after what should have been
his wedding day., after an illness that
developed serious symptoms very rapidly.

ance on her affianced husband. DR..
Moxley was highly esteemed and re-
spected by all classes in Gloucester,

The report Of Major Marindin, relat-
ing to the recent accident on the Tralee
and Dingle Light Railway, together with
a general report by General Hutchinson
as to the management of the line, have
been issued to Parliament. The two re-

"Balfourian" railways, crippled as they
are with baronial guarantees, under the |

Tully's Railway bill, which has already |
passed the second reading. I
