Jackson, Dawson-street, where ho was residing. He had been complaining of the state of his health for some time, but it was not expected by his friends that his demise would have been so sudden. The immediate cause of his death was haemorrhage in the brain. He was taken ill at about 9 o'clock on Saturday morning when Dr Leatham was called in, but notwithstanding everything was done to relieve the sufferer, Mr Gibson died about 5 o'clock the same evening. Mr Gibson was born in the year 1833, at Sidmouth, Devonshire. He studied for the medical profession at the London University where he took his B.A. degree. He was a pupil of Dr James Martineau, the distinguished Unitarian divine, and of the Rev. Dr. Morgan. Mr Gibson acted as a private tutor and lecturer in Manchester for nearly seventeen years, his favourite subjects being English History and Literature. He came to New Zealand in 1878, and for a short time was the classical master in a private school kept by Mr Ellis in Liardet-street. Owing to failing health he had to resign, and then followed the profession of private tutor. In 1892 he visited England on business matters, returning to New Zealand at the close of that year. Mr Gibson was a writer of considerable ability, and under the non de plume of "Egmont" has contributed to the Taranaki Herald, a number of articles of interesting character, his descriptive writing being of a very graphic nature. He also was a largo contributor to the Dunedin Evening Star, where his articles appeared under the non de plume of " Cuivis." Mr Gibson also contributed largely to the literary and scientific journals in England. Mr Gibson was always ready to give his services as a lecturer to literary societies, and to assist in disseminating the more advanced branches of learning. Those who knew him intimately found him a very social acquaintance, and the anecdotes he could relate were amusing, and were told by the deceased gentleman with a vein of humour which never failed to tell. The deceased gentleman leaves a wife and family of four children. Mrs Gibson is at present in Wellington. The sons, Messrs A. H. Gibson and W. H. Gibson live in the Wellington Province. The daughters are Mrs C. F. Richmond and Miss Marion Gibson.
