ceased their earthly labors and passed

Mrs. Mallalieu at 10 o'clock, from an
attack of paralysis three weeks ago,
aged 80 years, Z months, day and Mr..
| Mallalieu at o'clock in the afternoon
from general debility, aged 81 years,
10 months, 13 days. They had been a
remarkably congenial, happy couple
| living together as man and wife 61
years last January, given in their bet
ter days to a large hospitality and
known throughout the Peninsula.
Seeing they were allowed a longer
life together than is usually allotted
to welded couples, the wish had often
been expressed by both that they
might also die together: this was al
most fully realized, for they passed
away between the rising and setting of
the sun, thus exemplifying a similar
narrative in the old Testament-'T They
were beautiful in their lives, and in
their death were not divided"
