Death Takes Away Another Old Comrade (1932)

Obituary from the December 1932 issue of the Socialist Standard

We regret to say that Comrade G. Seach died in a hospital on November 21st, after an illness of several months. So little did he think that death was near, that the day before he died he was regretting that bad health had kept him from participating in the work of the organisation, but he expected to carry on again when he came out of hospital.

Comrade Seach was, perhaps, better known to older members of the Party. Before and immediately after the War he did a considerable amount of speaking, which finally brought on throat trouble. After speaking for twenty minutes, he suffered from bleeding of the throat. On this account he had to give up platform work at last.

He was a sturdy comrade and a valuable worker for the Party, and it is with deep sorrow we place him among the growing band of those who are only our memories. To his family we extend our sympathy.
