DEATH.
Dalton. — August 4, at the Hospital, Nelson, Mrs S. Dalton, matron of the hospital, aged 58 years. -Nelson Evening Mail, 5/8/1893.
A Friend to Many. — We are exceedingly sorry to hear of the death of Mrs Dalton, who for very many years has held the position of matron and head nurse at the Nelson Hospital. It is between 25 and 30 years ago that the Nelson Provincial Government secured the services of the deceased, who at that time was a nurse at the Addenbrook Hospital, Cambridgeshire, and during her many years of service at the Nelson Hospital, Mrs Dalton has earned the gratitude of not a few by her general kindliness and constant attention. Some few weeks ago she complained of some irritation in the foot, but during the present week arrangements were made for amputation, as gangrene had set in. It was found, however, that the operation was more than the patient could stand, and yesterday the kindly attendant of others passed away. There are many, we are sure, who will experience very real sorrow at her decease. -Colonist, 5/8/1893.
FUNERAL
THE Friends of the late MRS DALTON are respectfully informed that her FUNERAL will leave the Hospital, at Two o'clock TO-MORROW (Sunday) for the New Cemetery.
A. AMOS, Undertaker. -Nelson evening Mail, 5/8/1893.
