A settler named Thomas Askew, says the Woodville Examiner, who had a section and house in the settlement, died on Sunday night. Mr and Mrs Askew have been living at Ashhurst but deceased came to the settlement to prepare the way for their return.
Mr Goff who lives near, sent a child over for some vegetables and on her knocking at the door she heard groans and opened it, when deceased was found to be dying. He was attended to but died as above. Deceased had been complaining of being unwell for sometime and a post mortem examination conducted by Dr Davenport revealed the fact that death resulted from cancer. He has four sons occupying responsible positions at Lyttelton
