City Charity Worker Dies
The death has occurred at Chester City Hospital, of Mr. Darcy Marfleet of 330 Uttoxeter road Longton, who was for many years a prominent worker for local charities.

During the First World War Mr. Marfleet gave concerts both at home and abroad and appeared with Reece Booth, the well known tenor, during the last war.
He leaves a widow, son and daughter.
The funeral will take place at Normacot Church tomorrow, followed
