WHOSE death at the early age of 35, on January 29, 1867, was much regretted in musical circles, was a native of Brunswick, and arrived in the colony in 1857. He occupied the position of bandmaster to the Volunteer Band, and conductor of the Catholic Band. He was a most accomplished musician, and as well acquainted with the theory as the practice of his art. As a clarionet player he has never probably been equalled here, and the masterly style of his performances on his favourite instrument will not be soon forgotten by those who heard them.
