The condition was that if Henry enlisted into, attested and finally approved for Her Majesty's Forces within fourteen days from 24 May 1864 he shall be absolutely discharged and become free from his Militia Engagement on 3 June 1864.

R. S. D. Name and surname - Henry Clothier Sex - male, Age - 36 years Occupation - agricultural labourer Cause of death - Weak Heart Fatal Syncope Signature, description and residence of informant - Certificate received from Frederick F Sylvester. Coroner for Wiltshire inquest held April 11th 1882. When registered - Twelfth April 1882 Melksham is located just east of Bradford and Just south of Corsham where William his son was born. The Wilts Times and News on Sat. 15 April 1882 has at LACOCK an INQUEST on GEORGE CLOTHIER..as follows,, On monday before Mr F. Sylvester,and jury,George Clothier [lab] 36 years old, employed by Mr Say,,farmer. At 6 am the employed men and woman, went milking, He seemed in his usual state of health, later after looking around they saw him lying on the ground. a quantity of brandy was got from Mr Says farm and medical attention was sent for. Life was found extint by Dr CRISP..and assigned death to SYNCOPE....the jury agreed the verdict..... Burial - St Michaels, Melksham, WIlshire Burials in the Parish of Melksham in the county of Wiltshire in the Year 1882 Name - Henry Clothier Abode - Melksham When buried - April 12 Age - 36 By whom the ceremony performed - F Slater No. 645 This has to be Henry as the the date of death is the same, the cause is the same, the coroner is the same, the age is out only one year. I did a check on the farmer and could only find one Say in the 1881 census for Lacock, which was spelt Laycock, and that is Henry Say and Fanny and their 3 children of Stroud Farm Laycock Wiltshire. Trevor Mizen has since visited the farm and taken some very good photos of it. 2004 Mom (Eily Mulcahy) has mentioned that after Henry died Norah was offered a job at a large house, probably as a maid, but only on the proviso that the family became Protestant. Norah refused and they then had to make arrangements to get back home as they could not substain themselves without a wage earner. I don't think the Poor Law Provisions would have applied to the immigrant family of residents too. From the North Cathedral baptism records it shows that William Henry was baptised in the North Cathedral on the 1st of May 1882. This then gives us a span of just under three weeks between Henry's death and burial until positive proof of the family being back in Cork. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 13, 14, 19, 20]
