James Vincent Kinnaird, 1911-4/7/1933. "on the threshold of life"

MR JAMES VINCENT KINNAIRD. 

At the early age of 22 years, there passed away at Earnscleugh on Tuesday, July 4, James Vincent, third son of Mr and Mrs Robert Kinnaird, Earnscleugh. The deceased was born at Matangi Orchard, Earnscleugh, on April 27, Bill, and received his education at the Earnscleugh and Moray Place Schools. From school, he went to an apprenticeship in the "Otago Daily Times," as a linotypist, and it was there his health gave way. For the last years he suffered from that illness which terminated in his death. 

He was a most popular worker among his fellow employees, having been blessed with a most bright and cheerful disposition, and his nature was such as to endear him to all those with whom he was associated. Mr and Mrs Kinnaird are the recipients of all sympathy in the loss of one, on the threshold of life, so loved.  -Alexandra Herald and Central Otago Gazette, 12/7/1933.
