he had taken an especially active part in the breeding of moor sheep. He was
closely identified with the Black Faced Sheep Breeders’ Association for a great
number of years. The internment took place at Egton cemetery, where the old
church used to stand, and many of the stones from which were used in the
building of the church at Egton, on Saturday afternoon, and the large number of
people present were eloquent of the respect in which they deceased was held.
