Monday 28 March 1864

The Late Rev Mr. GARNER
We regret to state that the Rev Mr. GARNER of the Wesleyan Mission died yesterday morning. Mr. GARNER had for some time been in ill health, but it was not supposed that his disease was mortal until a comparatively short time of his death. During a long residence in South Africa Mr. GARNER proved himself to be an efficient and labourious missionary. He spent most of his life in the distinctively mission work, and was for many years stationed beyond the borders of the colony, in Kaffraria Proper. Few ministers had a deeper insight into the Kaffir character; or had so effective an acquaintance with the Kaffir language, and few had greater influence over the Kaffir mind. During the last three years Mr. GARNER was the Superintendent of the Grahamstown Native Circuit, and resided at the Mission House on the Location. His memory will be held in esteem by many, both natives and Europeans.
The funeral will take place tomorrow morning, the procession leaving Commemoration Chapel (not the Mission House on the Location as announced from the pulpit yesterday) at 9 o'clock.
