William Pettitt

Obituary—A number of the old people in this village have been taken off lately. We have this week to record the death of William Pettitt, aged 84, the oldest male inhabitant of the village. Deceased was known by a large number of farmers and other tradespeople for many miles round the district, he having for many years followed the calling of a vermin destroyer and could adapt himself to various other occupations. Deceased carried his age remarkably well.
