Hunt House, Goathland, who died at his residence on Wednesday, last week, at
the advanced age of 92 years, was attended by a large number of
agriculturalists and others from various parts of the North Riding. He was one
of the most familiar figures in the sheep breeding world in this part of the
country, as was stated in an obituary notice in these columns, last week, and
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.
The funeral cortege left Hunt House at 11.30 AM in a heavy rainstorm, and
preceded by Randy Mere, and Egton Bridge, to St Hilda's church, Egton, at which
there was a numerous congregation. The service was conducted by the Rev MC
