SAD DEATH OP A YOUNG MAN.
We regret to have to record the death of Mr. Josiah Elworthy, the fourth son of Mr. Thomas Elworthy, of St Leonards, under somewhat sad circumstances.  At the beginning of last year Mr. Elworthy was measuring up work at the Sussex Hotel, and met with an accident which at the time did not seem serious.  A floor board was left up by the bell-hanger, and not seeing it, his leg went down between the joists and through the ceiling. This is believed to be the primary cause of all his after suffering.

At the latter end of September be had to have medical attendance, and for some weeks was seriously ill with obstruction the bowels.  The attacks came on periodically, but during the last three or four weeks they grew worse, and his father ‘was advised to send him to St. Thomas’s Home, on the Albert Embankment.  He went Wednesday week, and on Saturday afternoon a critical operation was performed.  It was thought he would pull through, but his friends received a telegram on Wednesday stating that he had passed away quietly at ten o’clock.  He leaves behind him a young wife—to whom he had been married scarcely a year—and an infant child.
