with the steamers , on board which he was well known for his courtesy and bonhomie , but his arduous duties probably hastened : his decease , for he was not of a very robust constitution . The immediate cause of death was heart disease .

continue to take a close interest in everything that affected the , district . Bnt it was in the promotion of' Masonic principles that much of his time was spent , and by all Masons in his locality his death will be greatly regretted . Perhaps to the furtherance of those principles he devoted
more time and energy than any other in the district . About twenty-five years ago he founded the Eccleston Lodge , and became its first Secretary , continuing in that office until his decease . Two or three years ago he founded the Piccadilly
Lodge , and here again he was the first Secretary , continuing to hold that position until the last . By the members of both Lodges he was held in high esteem . Bro . Beckham was a Life ! Governor of the Boys School , the Girls School , and the Benevolent Institution , says the "Chelsea Mail . "
nnHE death of M .
