SUICIDE AT LISMORE Lismore, Friday. - John Howarth, an insurance agent, aged 73, was discovered dead in the bathroom at the Freemasons' Hotel at Lismore yesterday.

A veteran of the South African was, John Howarth (73), was found dead to day in a bath at Lismore with his throat and each wrist cut. The coroner returned a verdict of suicide. Ancestry tree- Smolders, Brabbins etc John Howarth married Margaretta Hobbs Falkiner in 1872 in Maitland NSW Australia. They had 10 children,three of whom tragically died in their youth. Twin girls born in 1873 died of tuberculosis while another daughter born in 1886 lived for only 14 days. All three girls were interred in the same cemetery as their mother, in Ballarat Victoria. Thurday 31 August 1916 , Page 25 of the Bendigonian Newspaper, Bendigo, Victoria THE HOWARTH FAMILY. Mr. John Howarth, head of the now well known Howarth family, which has such a splendid record in the doings of the present war, was born a soldier in the Victoria Barracks, Sydney, his father being one of the llth Regiment (now known as the Devons), who were stationed there at the time. He worked himself up in the militia forces until he became quarter-master-sergeant. When the Boer war broke out he was one of the first Australians to volunteer, and served in South Africa for 14 months. Three of his sons followed him to the South African war, and at the close returned to Australia. At the outbreak of the present war, when the Expeditionary Forces were called for, Quartermaster-Sergeant Howarth, who is now an officer of the Commonwealth Electoral department, again offered his services, but being over the age, had to stand aside. His four sons; however, all married men with families, went to Egypt with various contingents, and all took part in the landing at the Dardanelles, the eldest, Sergeant J. S. Howarth, being killed in action by machine gun fire. The second son, Trooper Horace Howarth, was one of the Light Horse that fought as foot soldiers at Gallipoli. After being in the trenches for nine weeks, he had the misfortune to lose his left arm and the sight of his left eye; which occurred as follows:- One day in the trenches a Turkish shell (an 18-pounder) fell near him and his mates without exploding. He rushed forward to cast it away out of danger, but just as he was in the act of picking it up it burst, shattering his left arm. He was taken to Malta, where the arm had to be amputated just below the elbow. A bullet also entered his head and lodged behind the left eye, where it remained for five weeks, until the eye had to be removed, and the bullet extracted. Trooper Howarth now wears the extracted bullet on his watch chain. He went to Sydney on his return to have an artificial arm fitted. The third son, Private Harold Howarth, was ,wounded in the right hand by a bomb at the Lone Pine action, and has returned home. 'The fourth son, Private Cyril Howarth, who also took part in the memorable landing, has been invalided home through a bad attack of fever. He having recuperated at Castlemaine, is about to return to the front again. Mrs. James Scott, of Castlemaine, is a sister of the Howarth brothers, and her son, James, 18 years old, who was employed in the engineering department at Thompson's foundry, is now on his way to the front. Mrs. Scott has also five nephews in the firing line, while the deceased Sergeant J. S. Howarth's eldest son is now with the Australian fleet in the North Sea. The above is a first-class record for one family.
