Death of Mrs. Baring-Gould
The death occurred on Sunday, after a long and painful illness, of Mrs. Baring-Gould, wife of the Rev. Sabine Baring-Gould, the well-known Devon author, and squire and rector of Lew Trenchard. The deceased lady was the daughter of the late Mr. Joseph Taylor, of Horbury, Yorkshire, and became acquainted with Mr. Baring Gould when he was curate of that place. The marriage took place in 1868, her husband being then perpetual curate of Dalton, Thirsk. From 1871 to 1881, Mrs. Baring Gould resided at East Mersea, Essex, where Mr. Baring Gould was rector. In 1872 Mr. Baring Gould inherited the family estates in the parish of Lew Trenchard on the death of his father, and in 1881, on the death of his uncle, he presented himself to the rectory of Lew Trenchard. Mrs. Baring Gould took great interest in the parish and its people, and was much beloved. Of several children, one son is the Rev. Arthur Baring-Gould, formerly vicar of Lew Trenchard, and since 1908 vicar of St. Martin, Haverfordwest, Pembrokeshire. One of her daughters married the son of Mr. Robert Burnard, J.P., of Plymonth.

Funeral of Mrs. Baring Gould
The funeral of Mrs. Baring-Gould took place yesterday at the Parish Church, Lew Trenchard, amid tokens of general regret. The service, which was choral, was conducted by the Rev. G. H. Arundell, curate. The hymn, "Days and Moments," was impressively sung. Miss Walker, of Lydford, presided at the organ, and rendered appropriate funeral music. At the graveside the
hymn "On the Resurrection Morning" was sung. The immediate mourners were: The Rev. Sabine Baring-Gould (widower), Mesdames Dickinson,
King, Rowe, Burnard, Priestly, Miss Baring-Gould, and Mrs. Calmady-Hamlyn (daughters), Dr. A. King, Messrs. Rowe and Burnard (sons-in-law),
Misses Langford and Williams (indoor staff), and Nurse Rogers. The bearers were Messrs. A. Cornish, T. Adams, C. Dustan, R. Lake, W. Wivell, E. Martin (employees on the estate). The remains were enclosed in an elm shell with an outer coffin of polished oak, with brass furniture. An oak cross surmounted the lid, and the plate at the foot bore the following inscription: "Grace Baring-Gould, died April 8th, 1916; aged 66 years. 'Jesu, Mercy'."
There was quite a profusion of lovely floral tributes from the following: Widower and family; the Misses Baring-Gould, Box Grove House; Mrs. E. Baring-Gould; maids at Lew House; Ida Richards; Major and Mrs. Hawkins; Mr. and Mrs. J. Mansdon; Miss Bond; Misses Bray (Langford); friends at Coombe Trenchard; Mr and Mrs. S. C.
