-------------------------------
William Henry Oliver of Trevose Commercial Rd Phillack East died aged 75 years (burial record).
-------------------------------
One of Hayle's most respected inhabitants passed away on Saturday, in the person of Mr. W. H. Oliver, of Commercial Road. Mr. Oliver, who was advanced in years, had for many years been stricken with blindness, but despite this, he was always of a cheery disposition. He was a member of many years standing of the Hayle U.M.C., and a regular attendant at all the services until through weakness, he was unable to do so. He was also a regular attendant at the Christian Endeavour meetings, and was a staunch supporter of the Band of Hope. He had been in failing health for a considerable time, and although it was apparent that the end was near, yet the news of his death has caused much sorrow and regret amongst a wide circle of friends. He leaves a widow and grown up family who have the sympathy of all in their bereavement.
