Death of M. H. Silverwood
Matthew Henry Silverwood, whose death is recorded in another column, was well and popularly known on the Pacific Coast and these islands. For several years past, he has been in the employ of the O. S. S. Co. as assistant engineer on the Australia, and was at one time chief of the I. I. S. N. Co's Waialeale on the Kauai route. Not feeling well on his last trip of the Australia, he was introduced by friends to remain over here, where he could be properly cared for. After staying a few days with friends and becoming worse, he was taken to the Queen's Hospital, where he expired last evening. Deceased was a member of the Marine Engineers Benevolent Society No. 35 of San Francisco, and was liked for his many good qualities. He leaves a mother and father in the Old Country, besides a large number of friends, to mourn their loss. Notice of funeral elsewhere. (The Honolulu Advertiser, Tue. 09 Jun 1891, p. 3)
