OBITUARY
Fatal Ending of the Accident to Mr. Alex. Campbell.

Exactly one week after recording the accident that happened Mr. Alex. Campbell, the sad information has to be given of his death from the injuries thus sustained. It was not at first thought that the mishap would have a fatal result, but the event proves otherwise. Mr. Campbell died yesterday afternoon, one week from the day of his fall into Messrs. E. O. Hall & Son's store cellar. The deceased was one of Honolulu's oldest citizens, having been the one merchant tailor of the city for many years. He was a native of Magilligan, County Derry, Ireland, who came here in 1854 from New York, and was 71 years, 10 months and 6 days old at death. Mr. Campbell leaves three sons—A. J., J. T. and W. B.—and one daughter, Mrs. Rycroft, of Hilo. The late Mrs. Mark P. Robinson was another daughter. Mr. Campbell was a devout member of the Anglican Church. The funeral will take place from his late residence, Nuuanu Avenue, at 4 o'clock this afternoon, the Rev. Geo. Wallace conducting the burial service.
