Details: The death occurred at Newcastle last week of Mr. Clarence H. Hannell, one of the most popular and certainly the best-known resident of the city, wherein he was born 73 years ago and of which he was so long such a conspicuous ornament. The name of Hannell is closely associated with the early history of Newcastle. Mr. James Hannell (the father of deceased) having been the first Mayor of the place and also of Wickham, positions which he occupied several years in succession, whilst he subsequently represented Newcastle and Northumberland in Parliament. Mr. C. H. Hannell was educated at the old grammar school and in 1855 took a trip to England. As a young man he was naturally devoted to the sea, and as the owner of some sailing vessels he amassed a handsome competence. He devoted much time and no inconsiderable amount of money to philanthropic work, Newcastle Hospital especially coming in for his tender care, and it was mainly due to his efforts in the direction of promoting concerts, dramatic entertainments, race meetings, etc., that a sum of 17000 pounds was raised for the institution. He was also chiefly instrumental in raising large sums of money for the benefit of the public school, Bulli disaster, Seamen s Church, Sailors Home, and Susanah Godefroy and other wrecks. As treasurer of the Ly-ee-moon and Bulli Disasters funds he perhaps excelled all his other efforts in the way of collecting subscriptions. For the Bulli disaster he collected 900 pounds and the expenses only totalled 16s. He occupied the position of shipping master for 16 years and was connected with the Newcastle Jockey Club for about half a century in every honorary position. He was a remarkably keen judge of racing, and as a handicapper he earned the title of the Admiral Rouse of the North. For many years Mr. Hannell who was a man of splendid physique and well over 6ft, in height was the amateur champion sculler, and he was the chief promoter of Newcastle regattas, whilst he was also an ardent supporter of cricket. His death was sudden and pathetic. During the day, although greatly enfeebled by protracted illness, he told the members of his family that it was his intention to attend the meeting of the committee of the Newcastle Jockey Club in the evening for the purpose of advocating the claims of the Newcastle Hospital to a race meeting. He arrived there shortly after 8pm and was in the act of walking along the passage in the direction of the committee room when he suddenly fell back into the arms of his son., Mr. Horace Hannell, and expired. Deceased leaves a family of three daughters and one son, Mrs. W. G. B. Smith, Mrs. W. Miller, Miss Phoebe Hannell and Mr. Horace Hannell. Mrs. Hannell predeceased her husband some years.
