severe and injury, as precluded every hope of recovery; but by the efforts of medical skill
and the unceasing attention of his friends, his life was protracted for one week, during

attended by the principal civil authorities of the island, and all the officers in the garrison..

THE REV J. F. BIGGE. It is with great regret that we announce the death of the Rev John
Frederic Bigge, vicar of Stamfordham, one of the best known and most highly respected
clergymen in the diocese of Northumberland. On Saturday, February 21st, Mr Bigge drove
into Newcastle from Stamfordham, being then apparently in the enjoyment of his usual
good health. When walking up Pilgrim Street, however, he was suddenly seized with
illness, and was carried into the shop of Mr Forbes, near the bottom of Northumberland
Street, and his friend, Dr Page, was immediately sent for. Dr Page, on finding that Mr
Bigge was suffering from paralysis, had him removed to his (Dr Page's) residence, 1,
Saville Place, where he received every attention. According to "Burke's Landed Gentry" the
Bigge family in this district is "stated to have descended from the ancient house, seated
for many generations at Hawkhurst, Kent, and Redgewell. Essex." William Bigge of
Newcastle, in 1666 married Isabella, daughter and co-heiress of Thomas Dent, and one of
his daughters married Edward Collingwood of Byker and Dissington; and his grandson.
William Bigge of Benton, married in 1736, Mary, daughter and sole heiress of Charles
Clarke of Ovingham, and the connection of the family still continues. Charles William Bigge
of Linden (grandson of Wm. Bigge of Benton), who for some years was chairman of the
Quarter Sessions of Northumberland, married in 1802, Alicia, only daughter of Christopher
Wilkinson of Newcastle, of the family of Wilkinson of Thorpe, in the county of York; and
the gentleman whose death we now record, was their fifth son. John Frederic Bigge was
born at Linden on July 12, 1814, and in 1843 married Caroline Mary, only daughter of Mr
Nathaniel Ellison, Commissioner of Bankruptcy in Newcastle, and leaves nine surviving
children, five sons and four daughters. One of the sons, Arthur John, is a captain in the
Royal Artillery, and served in the Zulu War in 1879, and was present in the engagement at
Kambala, and on his return home was appointed Equerry-in-waiting to the Queen. The
deceased gentleman completed his education at university College, Durham, where in
1840 he took the degree of B.A., and in 1843 that of M.A. He was in 1840 ordained a
deacon and priest by the Bishop of Durham, and was appointed to the curacy of
Edlingham. The vicarage of Ovingham, which is in the gift of the Bigge family, became
vacant in 1841, and the Rev J. F. Bigge was presented to the living, which he held until
1847 when he was appointed Vicar of Stamfordham and this living he held up to the time
of his death During an active life as a clergyman of the Church of England, extending over
a period of nearly half a century, Mr Bigge earned for himself the respect and esteem of all
with whom he came in contact; and it may truly be said that his parishioners at
Stamfordham entertained for him a much warmer feeling than esteem. The high
estimation in which he was held by the clergymen in Northumberland was shown by his
being repeatedly elected, since 1872, one of the Proctors in Convocation for the
Archdeaconry of Northumberland. Living in the country, Mr Bigge bad abundant
opportunity of cultivating his taste for natural history, and was a contributor to the
transactions, of the Tyneside Naturalists' Field Club, of which he was a member. The living
of Stamfordham is of the annual value of £774, and is in the gift of the Lord Chancellor.

NORTHUMBERLAND VICAR SON Lord Stamfordham, who was born on June 18, 1849, was
the son of the Rev. J. F. Bigge, former Vicar of Stamfordham, Northumberland. A soldier
by profession, he was appointed Lieutenant in the Royal Artillery in 1869. He was in the
thick of the fighting in the Zulu campaign ten years later, was mentioned despatches, and
became A.D.C. to Sir Evelyn Wood. He was gazetted Lieut.- Colonel in 1892, and retired
1898. So distinguished was his career the Army that it is said he was at first reluctant take
up an appointment at Court. He consulted friend. "It all depends," said his advisor. "If you
have the sense I credit you with you will accept the offer. If, the other hand, you are fool,
you will stay in the Army." "So I had to take the post in order vindicate my intelligence,"
Lord remarked afterwards.
Lord Stamfordham had the ordeal announcing to Queen Victoria his engagement. It has
been said that the Queen was never very eager that members of her Household should
marry. When Lord Stamfordham's fiancee, who came of the ancient family of the Nevilles,
of Audley End and Billingbear, was taken Buckingham Palace the Queen was impressed by
her likeness to her grandfather, who was a favourite Dean of Windsor, and the marriage
was approved.
Lady Stamfordham died in 1922. Their only son, the Hon. John Neville Bigge was killed in
the war in 1915. Lord Stamfordham is survived by two daughters - the Hon. Victoria
Eugenie whose husband, Captain Henry Adeane, Coldstream Guards, was killed the first
year of the war, and the Hon. Margaret Bigge. Mrs. Adeane's son, Mr. Michael Adeane, was
a Page of Honour to the King. Lord Stamfordham, the possessor of many honours,
received his peerage 1911. On the dexter side of the supporters his armorial bearings is a
scribe holding in the exterior hand pen.

RESTITUTION SUIT. In the Divorce Court yesterday Mr Justice Horridge granted Mrs Ruth
Oliphant of Kensington Mansions, London, a decree for the restitution of conjugal rights
against her husband, Harry G. L. Oliphant, an officer in the Navy, said to have been
stationed at Plymouth. The marriage, said petitioner, was in 1906. In 1920 she had an
operation, and went abroad in February, 1921. She returned in July, 1921, but he had not
since made a home for her.

In the 1911 census Ralph's mother states that she has borne two children, only one of whom is
