Morton. confectioner. one of the excursionists. we gather the following particulars of the sad occurence: Mr. Markham reached the Garden City. at the foot of Yonge-st.. a few minutes before 5 o’clock, and ascended to the upper deck. Soon after some Port Hope peoglee close by noticed that he appeared to ill. and questioned him. but he replied that he would be all right ina minute. Then he slipped 03 the seat to the deck‘ just as Mr. Morten reached the spot. A doctor was at once sent for by the captain, but death took place before hie arrival. The body was then taken away in the ambu- lance to await the action of the coroner. ‘ Heart disease was undoubtedly the cause of death. It is supposed that the deceased had hurried to catch the boat, as he appeared to be out of breath when he reached the dock. The deceaeed was in his 66th year. and n to a few months ago had always enjoyeg the best of health. He had been in busi- ness in Lindsay for over 30 years. coming here from Maniila, where he had been in the emplo of Malcolm McLean. He was a man stern men. inst to a degree. and while cmfldants of few, was highly esteemed or his many good quail. ties.
