Death of Mr. A. R. Runnacles. —We regret to report the death, which occurred Sunday night, of Mr. Anthony Raynor Runnacles, only son of Mr. and Mrs. E. H. Runnacles, of Pitfield House, and grandson of the late Mr. Rayner Runnacles, of Reydon Grove. The deceased, who had long been in delicate health, was only 20 years of age. He was highly popular and very keen on motoring and mechanics, which he followed as a hobby. Nothing in the way of motor engineering came amiss for him, and he was a real expert. He was frequently seen with the steam buses of the National Car Co. at Chelmsford and was a great favourite with all. Right up to the last his interest in engineering was maintained, and he had a complete electric lighting set in his bedroom. Much sympathy is extended to the bereaved parents. The funeral took place on Thursday at Reydon, near Southwold.
