  	Manawatu Times, Volume LXIV, Issue 177, 6 August 1907, Page 4 Howard - On August 4th at her late residence, Edinburgh House, Broadstreet, Frances Howard, aged 66 years. Private interment. Manawatu Times, Volume LXIV, Issue 177, 6 August 1907, Page 4 We regret to have to record the sudden death of Mrs Frances Howard, of Broadstreet, Palmerston North, which took place at her late residence at 5.30 on Sunday evening. The deceased lady was engaged in preparing the tea when she suddenly expired. The deceased had resided in Palmerston for the past three years. She was on old identity of Blenheim and was noted as one who was ever willing to extend the hand of practical sympathy to those in distress. She leaves a husband and a grown-up family of eleven to mourn the loss of a loving mother. To the bereaved we extend our sincere sympathy. An inquest was held yesterday afternoon, before Capt. Mowlem, when a post mortem examination disclosed the fact that death was due to apoplexy, and a verdict was returned accordingly. Marlborough Express, Volume XLI, Issue 183, 5 August 1907, Page 5 News has been received privately of the sudden death, at Palnmerston North, of Mrs James Howard, aged about seventy years. Until a few years ago deceased resided in Bleneim haying been a worthy old settler. Her husband, Mr James Howard, carpenter, who now resides in Palmerston North, is looked upon locally as one of the very few surviving identities who lived in Blenheim as far back as the 'fifties. Had the deceased survived, their golden wedding was to have been celebrated next Easter. The members of the bereaved family, all of whom were born in Blenheim, are as follows :?Mesdames Goodman, Brewster (Levin), R. Fredericks (Palmerston North), Masters (Seddon), and W Humphreys, Misses Gertie, Bertha and Ethel, and Messrs George (Auckland), Wm (Feilding), and Leonard (Palmerston North).
