His wife Rachel subsequently received the news in London on 17th May 1906 that he had died out there. He was about 38, born in Devonport. Does anybody have access to Canadian records which will shed a little light on this sad story?

	His death registration is online at web2.gov.mb.ca/cca/vital/Query.php It's the site for Manitoba Vital Statistics. Unfortunately it doesn't give any more info than what you already have other than it gives his age as 37. Margaret
	Researching: Great grandmother Dorothy Bean nee Abbott (1858-1908)
