The Passionist Fathers, whose headquarters in South Australia are at Glen Osmond, are a well-known body. Individually they are popular. It will be easily understood, therefore, how the news of the sudden death of one of the community came as a surprise and even as a shock to many of our readers. The death of Father Alfred, C.P., occurred with startling suddenness. Bathing in the Glenelg baths, he collapsed without warning. His head fell, and before help could reach him he was already dead. His funeral took place yesterday afternoon at the Glen Osmond Monastery. Archbishop O'Reily had hastened back from the ceremony at Norwood and presided at the obsequies. The Passionist Fathers are held in high esteem. There was accordingly although it was Sunday, the clergymen's, busiest day, a large gathering of priests.
Among those present were the Very Rev. Dr. Byrne, V.G., the Very Rev. Archpriest Nevin, the Rev. T. Hurley, the Very Rev. Prior Kindelan, O.C.C., the Rev. M. B. Larkin, O.P., and the Rev. Father O'Brien. S.J. The tram company had a busy time of it. Eight cars
were in waiting when the funeral was over, and the Bay-road was crowded with vehicles, carrying sympathisers from every
part of the city and suburbs. The Monastery grounds were crowded, and some hundreds were present as mourners. The late
Father Alfred was English, of the English. Of the Englishman's religion, he was Protestant in the early days. He became a
Catholic, then a Passionist monk, and then a priest. Those who knew him could not but admire bim. He was singularly
straightforward and candid. With all he was gentleness itself, and invariably and in all circumstances courteous. His death is
a serious loss to the Passionist community. Every father among them literally deplores his loss, as do many hundreds of laymen and laywomen.
The Passionist Fathers, whose headquarters in South Australia are at Glen Osmond, are a well-known body. Individually they are popular. It will be easily understood, therefore, how the news of the sudden death of one of the community came as a surprise and even as a shock to many of our readers. The death of Father Alfred, C.P., occurred with startling suddenness. Bathing in the Glenelg baths, he collapsed without warning. His head fell, and before help could reach him he was already dead. His funeral took place yesterday afternoon at the Glen Osmond Monastery. Archbishop O'Reily had hastened back from the ceremony at Norwood and presided at the obsequies. The Passionist Fathers are held in high esteem. There was accordingly although it was Sunday, the clergymen's, busiest day, a large gathering of priests.
Among those present were the Very Rev. Dr. Byrne, V.G., the Very Rev. Archpriest Nevin, the Rev. T. Hurley, the Very Rev. Prior Kindelan, O.C.C., the Rev. M. B. Larkin, O.P., and the Rev. Father O'Brien. S.J. The tram company had a busy time of it. Eight cars
were in waiting when the funeral was over, and the Bay-road was crowded with vehicles, carrying sympathisers from every
part of the city and suburbs. The Monastery grounds were crowded, and some hundreds were present as mourners. The late

REEVES, Augustus died 14 May 1904
Advertiser Tuesday 17 May 1904 page 8
On Saturday about midday Mr. Augustus Reeves, aged, about 50 years, and employed by Messrs. Horn & Co., of Horndale Vine
yards as a teamster, was crushed to death by a fall of limestone rubble in the Reynella rubble pit. It appears that the man had gone as usual for a load of rubble, and after backing in his dray was in the act of putting out the stuff, when a large mass, weighing several tons, which had been previously undermined, suddenly gave way. The unfortunate man was buried in the debris. Another teamster passing, suspecting that something was wrong, went to the spot, and with the help of others quickly succeeded in recovering the body, which was found to be fearfully mangled and lifeless. An inquest was held in the Reynella Hall on Saturday afternoon, when a verdict of "accidental death" was returned. At the conclusion of the inquest the coroner, jurors, and witnesses handed their fees to the deceased's widow, who is left with a family of five small children, and unfortunately in rather poor circumstances. The funeral took place on Sunday, and a large number of people followed the remains to the grave in the Happy Valley Cemetery.

REID, William died 07 June, 1861
Border Watch June 14, 1861
It is our melancholy duty to record the death of one of our earliest colonists, Mr. Inspector Reid, of the Foot Police of South Australia. It appears that on the evening of the 7th June he was proceeding along the jetty for the purpose of embarking on the Ant steamer on his return to Adelaide from a visit to this district, when he was overtaken by a loaded truck, conveying wheat for shipment from the Bay. The men in charge of the truck called out to him, but it would appear the unfortunate gentleman did not hear them till too late. They endeavoured to stop the truck, but from the decline in the jetty towards the sea, were unable to do so. The truck knocked him down, throwing him across the rails, when the wheels passed over him, and death was almost instantaneous. The trucks used have not any " breaks" attached to them, and the decline towards the sea renders it impossible for manual power to check them until they arrive at the lowest level, when the rails make a gradual incline seawards.
The late Mr. Reid came to this colony twenty-one years ago, and joined the police force of South Australia, in which he had gradually raised himself to his late position of Inspector. His gentlemanly behaviour and kindness to all connected with him, both officially and privately, have endeared him to one and all.
His loss will be severely felt by a large circle of friends, and also to all well-wishers to peace and good order.
As a police officer he was not to be surpassed. The deceased gentleman was about retiring from the police on the pension allowed for long service, and had visited this district with the intention of settling here. He was brother to the Rev. Mr. Reid, Episcopalian Minister at Guichen Bay.
We regret to add that he leaves a wife and one child to lament his untimely end.

It is a melancholy fact that as cheques were being sent in for the benefit of the aged pioneer and explorer, Mr. John Ross,
that gentleman died in the Adelaide Hospital on Thursday last. Sir Edwin Smith, president of the Old Colonists' Association,
has communicated with the hon. secretary, Mr. Spencer Skipper, and suggested that the cheques should be devoted to the cost of a simple headstone over the old man's grave. The expense would be something under £10, and the association could add its mite.

Much regret will be felt at the announcement of the death, from diabetes at Goodwood, on Tuesday evening at the age of 59 years of Mr. William Rossi, who recently retired from the Post and Telegraph Department after nearly half a century's service.

He was then appointed as post and telegraph master at North Adelaide where for the first three years he was also returning-officer for the electoral district of North Adelaide.
While at Auburn he became worshipful master of St. John's Masonic Lodge and to the last placed the master's jewel, received from his brethren there amongst the most valued of his many public presentations. He was an Oddfellow for over 40 years and had been a member of the Loyal Auburn Lodge since 1866.
Mr. Rossi was amongst the first to enter the telegraph service. Mr. Rossi was courteous, energetic and capable officer, and he was highly respected by a large circle of friends who sympathised deeply with him in regard to the long and painful illness which caused his retirement from the public service last February and his sad death.
He leaves a widow and four daughters and three sons - Mr W.R. Rossi, a relieving manager of the Bank of Western Australia; Mr. A. Rossi, an operator in the Adelaide Telegraph Office; and Mr. G.B. Rossi who is engaged in the Eastern Extension Company's service. The remains of Mr. Rossi will be interred in the West-terrace cemetery this afternoon.
