DEATHS. On the 23rd instant, at Canford Manor, Wimborne, of congestion of the lungs, Augustus Frederick Guest, Esq., in his 22nd year, fourth son of the late Sir J. John Guest, Bart.

DEATH OF AUGUSTUS FREDERICK GUEST, ESQ.---
Our obiturary of this week contains a record of the death of Augustus Frederick Guest, Esq., fourth son of the late Sir John Guest, Bart., of Canford Manor, near Poole. The deceased had only been ill a short time, and his death --- which arose from congestion of the lungs --- was quite unexpected to the members of his family. He had arrived at Canford on the previous Saturday from London, somewhat indisposed and depressed in spirits, but his illness was not such as to cause any apprehension of danger, and we believe it was not until Wednesday that serious fears were entertained of his recovery. His death, which took place on Friday, may therefore be regarded as of a somewhat sudden character. Deceased was of a generous disposition, and was greatly esteemed and respected in every circle of society in which he moved. His death is therefore deeply deplored, not only by the members of his own family and the household, to whom he had endeared himself by his kindness and affability, but also by all who were fortunate enough to have made his acquaintance. The funeral, which was of a strictly private character, took place on Wednesday, at Canford. His remains were interred in the manor vault at the Canford Cemetery. The Hon. and Rev. Walter Ponsonby read the burial service in a very impressive manner. The pall was borne by the principal tenants of the estate. A number of persons assembled to witness the interment, and all appeared to lament the loss of so promising a young gentleman as deceased, whose many excellencies had rendered him a general favorite.

St. Germans Church Restoration.---
The harvest thanksgiving services at St. Germans Church celebrated on Wednesday were of a more interesting character than in former years, consequent on the work of restoration which is in progress. It is remarkable that this large and ancient edifice, thought once the Cathedral church of the Cornish diocese, is without a chancel. This neglect of its architect, or it may be the work of later renovators, has now been remedied, at least temporarily. Miss Eliot, elder daughter of Colonel the Hon. C.G.C. Eliot, having designed a beautiful screen, the eastern part of the church is separated by it, and forms an unique and effectual chancel. The screen, which is a work of artistic skill, was placed in position by the Countess of St. Germans and the lady visitors at Port Eliot. Holy Communion was celebrated at half-past eleven service; those held during the afternoon and evening were fully choral. Prayers were intoned by the Rev. E. Buck, curate-in-charge, the lessons being read by the Revs. D. Jenkins and H.N. Wheeler. Two appropriate and eloquent sermons were preached, and the one in the afternoon by the Rev. Sylvanus Gregory, that in the evening by the Rev. Joseph Hammond, vicar of St. Austell. A public tea, partaken of during the interval between the afternoon and evening services, was largely attened, and the arduous efforts of Mr. Buck and his co-helpers in the parish met with well-earned success. Collections made on behalf of the Organ Restoration Fund amounted to over ten pounds.----

A very successful concert was given in St. Germans Townhall last evening, in connection with the Mutual Improvement Society. The programme opened with a brilliantly executed piano solo, Handel's gavotte, by the Hon. Mrs. Eliot, who was also heard to advantage in an instrumental trio for piano, violin and violoncello, the two latter instruments being played most skillfully by Miss Eliot and Miss Evelyn Eliot respectively. An artistically rendered solo by Miss E. Eliot on the 'cello was greatly enjoyed. Miss A. May sang with good effect, as did also Miss Evelyn Warren, and both were encored. They also gave a duet with great taste and expression. Mr. W.G. Broad also contributed to the evening's enjoyment. There was only a fair attendance.

Monday. 18th [November 1907]. I took leave of Angela Reinelt whose guest I have been in Paris & left by 10 o'cl train for London where I arrived at 5 after a perfectly calm passage. Bessborough kindly sent his motor brougham to the station to fetch me & with it a note to say Connie wanted me to dine with her tonight as she was giving a party to celebrate her son Eddie's engagement to Clare Philips & he wd take me there in the motor if I wd go. I agree to this & he fetched me & took me to 8 Onslow Gardens. I met the bride elect & her father & mother Mr & Mrs Philips. Eddie was not there as he had retired into a nursing home to have a cyst cut out of his neck. The Philips invited me down to Montacute for the wedding on 3rd Decr & I accepted. I got home after 11 very tired. Clare Philips seems a nice bright girl & Eddie has been taken into partnership as a solicitor by her uncle, wh makes the marriage possible.

2 December 1907 - Montacute House, Montacute, Somerset
Monday. 2nd December [1907]. I left Inwood & went by train to Yeovil whence I drove in a fly to Montacute to stay with Mr & Mrs Philips on the occasion of the marriage of their girl Clare to my nephew Edward Eliot. Found Connie already there-she had got a violent cold in her head & I had to get her to keep most of the afternoon in her room by a warm fire & she got better. Montacute is a lovely old house in the style of Hatfield but not well kept up & it was very cold & draughty. There was a large party staying in the house relations of both families. The wedding gifts were all displayed on the billiard table & many neighbours came over to see them. Mr Philips' aged mother-of 91-lives in the house-a charming little rosy cheeked old lady who entered into all that was going on & is very courteous & kind to all. Miss Buller (daughter of Sir Redvers) was here-to act as one of the bridesmaids. Evely Eliot, the brothers of the bride & her married half sister &c. In the evening there was a dance in the hall & several neighbours came over amongst them my niece Mildred Mansel & her husband. It was a very cold night.

Chaney- We had to hurry over the visit & get back to an early lunch before the marriage wh was at 2 o'cl. We drove to the church wh was very near the house. The Church was full & the bride & her father arrived soon after us. Evely Eliot played the organ & began with a hymn sung by the choir. All went well-the church was crowded & prettily decorated with flowers. After the service Mr Philips took me to see the remains of the Abbey convent close by wh had belonged to some French monks who were dispossessed by Henry VIII & their lands given to the Philips family. We returned to Montacute & tea &c was served in the hall many neighbours having come in to it. The happy pair started abt 5 for London & the next day left for Venice where they are to stay at Ca' Capello wh I have lent them. We had a quiet evening & went early to bed.
