The Islander – Nov 1, 1867
In this city at the residence of her father on the 26th Oct., much beloved and deeply regretted by a numerous circle of friends, Helen, eldest daughter of Vice-Admiral Bayfield.
The numerous friends of Admiral and Mrs. Bayfield will deeply regret to observe in our obituary list of today, a notice of the death of their eldest daughter, which sad event took place in this city on the afternoon of Saturday last. The young lady who has been so unexpectedly called from our midst to a better and brighter world, was highly esteemed in this community for her Christian virtues and will be held in grateful remembrance in many an humble cottage where she visited to read the Scriptures, instruct the enquiring, and comfort the sick. Would that it were possible for us to do more than contribute our mite to the universal sympathy which is felt for her bereaved parents, as well as the other member of the family, in their trying bereavement. The funeral of the deceased took place yesterday at 3 o’clock, p.m., her remains being followed to their last resting place in the Protestant cemetery, by a large and respectable procession.
