      MARSHALL
      - Perished at sea on board the barque Perseverance of London, after leaving Cumberland Gulf, Davis Straits, in October 1901, James Marshall, shipmaster, 19 Marischal Street, Peterhead, aged 64 years.

      He is gone and never will return again to his own home,
      And though the raging roaring sea be lashed into a foam,
      And though the monsters of the deep about him nightly crowd,
      He lies in calm and perfect peace, the green seaweed his shroud."
