The many friends of Mr. J. T. Werry, of Wanganui, will regret to hear of the death of his nephew, Alfred Werry, which occurred on Saturday at Timaru, at the early age of 14 years. The deceased was a frequent visitor to Wanganui and was extremely popular. -Wanganui Chronicle, 11/7/1921.
The last tribute to their school mate and comrade, Master Alfred Werry, was paid by the pupils of the Timaru Boys' High School at his funeral, which took place last week. The boy, who was 15 years of age, was a son or Mr A. E. Werry, formerly first assistant at the Waimataitai School, and now headmaster of the Belfast School. The deceased, who was a member of the Fifth Form, was highly popular among both masters and his schoolmates, and intellectually he showed excellent promise. The masters of the school acted as pall-bearers. The funeral, which was very large, was a singularly impressive one, there being among those present Messrs Campbell, Bowie, and Satterthwaite (members of the High Schools Board), Mr J. G. Gow (ex-chief inspector of schools), teachers of the local primary schools, and friends of the Werry family from town and country. The Rev. A. Julius was the officiating clergyman. Wreaths were sent by the Timaru High School boys, staff of Timaru Boys' High School, Timaru High School Old Boys' Association, Waimataitai School Committee, staff of the Waimataitai School, teaching staff and children of the Belfast School; Rev. H..N. Roberts and vestrymen of St. David's Church, Belfast; and a large number of private friends. -Press, 13/7/1921.
