Death ot Cot. tfocKley Roderick,…
Death ot Cot. tfocKley Roderick, Llamdly. A GElNTLJiJMAN OF MANIFOLD ACTIVITIES. The 'death of Lieut.-Col. W. Buckley .Roderick, V.D., took place at his residence, Ftronlheulog, Llaiieily, on Saturday, after a short illness. The meswB was quite unexpected as earlier in the week it was reported that the deceased gentleman was treco-vering from a (heart affection. The announcement of his death came as a severe shock to the 00011- munity, in which he had (held an honoured place, it being felt that by his untimely death Llanelly has lost O'Die of its most useful citizens. I The deceased genitlemaai was iborn on the 17th January, 1862, being the elldest son of the la/fce Mr Wiiiliam Roderick, manager of the, London aaid Provincial Bank, Llanely, and the 3/ate Mrs Roderick, daughter of the late Mr James Buckley, of Penyfai and Cas- tellgorfod. He was educated at Sidney Col- lege, where he doubly distinguished himself as a scholar and a brilliant athlete. He had a passion for athletics, and HaneUyites still recall with pride his prowess on the bicycle track and in the football field. After leaving school he was articled in 1880 to Messrs Johnson and Stead, a well kmown LlaneHy firm of solicitors, who at that time had an extensive practice. "Whilst studying law he did not forget his old love of outdoor sports, and in 1881 he won the gold medal and the five mile amateur cycling championship of South Wales at Cardiff. He ad-so become one of the most prominent members of the Llen- elly football team, aiqd acquired a national reputation as a three-quarter. He had a hand in bringing the cup to Llanelly in the season 1881-2, and in, 1884 he gained his cap aaid played for Wales agadnist Ireland. Other members of the team at that time included such well kn' wn sportsmen as Fred Nelson Powell, George Watke/ys, W. Y. Nevill, R. W. Evans, and David John. He was admitted as a solicitor in 1885, and he forthwith conimenoed what quickly became one of the most lucrative practices in the Principality. He won an enviable position for himself in legal circles, and the business grew to such proportions that in 1899 he took Mr Martin B. Richards into partnership. Four years later a third part- ner joined the firm in the person of Mr G. Clarke Williams, B.A., since which date the practice has been carried on under the style of Roderick Richards, and Williams. In 1885 he was appointed agent to the Buckley Estate, and in, December, 1892, was appointed coroner for the honour or lordship and liberty of Kidwelly. The quaint title < demotes the coroner for the Lknely district and a considerable portion of East Carmar- thenshire. Several important issues came before him for decision. The most import- ant of these was at the inquiry arising out of the disaster to the Great Western Railway express near Loughor. Mr Roderick con- ducted that iniporbant inquiry coii- sumate skill, and his summing up is still re- membered as a masterpiece of its kind, and at the close of the inquiry Colonel Yürke, on behalf of the Board of Trade, paid the coroner a high tribute for the manner in which he had conducted the proceedings. Since November, 1895, Mr Roderick had occupied tthe positions of registrar and high bailiff for the Llanelly County Court, his predecessor lbeing the Qiate- Mr J. LJoyd Moons. For some time he was ebairrnaii of the Llamelly and Myiiydimawr Railway Company j but relinquished that position as a protest 1 against a policy adopted by Mr Waddell towards the minority shareholders. He was keenly interested in, the commercial life of the town, and up to its sale to the Bargoed Company recently he was one of the princi- pal promoters of the PmMumry Gol'lie-iy. At one, time it seemed likely tbat Mr Roderick would become a prominient figure in the offi- cial public life of the town. and he served a useful apprenticeship in this respect as a ( member of the old local board of health and ,( the harbour commission. His heart, how- ever, was never In this work, and at the first] opportunity he retired from both positions. ( AS A VOLUNTEER, Outside his professional and semi-profes- sional work his affections, there can be no ( doubt, were priJlltCipalQy directed to the Volun teer movement. His connection with the local force dated back to 1882, and he passed through the various grades until he Was gazetted as lieutcolonel commanding the < Llanelly detachment, Curiously enougjh, his lamented father was also the coiiiiiiaiidi,iii, officer before him. It is difficult to ade- quately describe Col. (Roderick's services to Volunteering. The efficiency of his men was of the passions of his aaid he grudged neither time nor trouble nor money to briaig the force up to th eideal he had set. Under his wise and enthusiastic control the move- menlt has prospered exceedingly in Llanelly. out as a I-eaderof men., and he was one of the His fine, handsome appearance marked him one of the best known figures at the annual camp. As had been expected he was deeply interested in the new Territoi-ital Army scheme for South Wales. Upon this he held very stron/g views, iaotid he was successful in inducing the War Office to considerablv modify their first proposals so far as South Wale? was. concerned. The War Office first proposed tilat Breconshire should be joined with Carmarthenshire. Col. Roderick verv quickly exposed the absurdity of such a pro- posal, and did not hesitate to send his views to headquarters. The Carmarthen County Association was formed a few weeks ago, and the deceased was unanimously appolntecl viice-ohairmani. 4n Volunteering matters alone his death is nothing short of a calamity to West Wales. SRCCESSFU, L AGRICULTURIST. The deceased gentleman, was also an agri- curist of no mean order, and he devoted con- siderable time and money to the breeding of cattle aiid At Goodig his farm near Burry Port, lie had «. ranownted herd of Jer- sej_ cattle, with which he had achieved not- able siuocesseis at the Royal and Bath and West of England shows. He was largely instrumental in establishing tfe Carmarthen shire Stud Company, of which he became the chairman in succession to his uncle, the late Mr W. J. Buckley. Tlhe. St. Clears Butter actory was one of his projects, and in other ways he had served in improving agriculture in the county. He had occupied the position of president of the Caimiaaithensliire Agri- cultural Society, and was patron of various local societies and organisations. Mr Roderiick married in. 186 EHa Augusta, tilip daughter of Captain and Mrs Hume Aleholl, of 23, Connaught square, Louden, who survives him with four sons and two daughters. His eldest son. Mr Hiwno Buckley Roderick, was articled to his father only a year or so ago, and has just passed his intermediate law exaaninratioau The deeased gentleman! leaves two brothers, viiz., Dr Sid. J. Roderick, medical officer of health for Llanelly, and Dr Hanry Buckley Roderick, of Cambridge; while his eistitei's are Mrs R. A. Nevill, of Ferryeide; Mrs Long-Price, Talley; and the Misses JSodefrxcK, or UIJB- eithen, Burry Port. Mr Roderi-bk m artkd in 1886 Ella Augusta Prince or Wales Lodge fo Freemasons, bav- in goccupied the Worshipful Master's chair for two yeaxs-in, 891, and again in 1895. He was a man of upright character and of a dis- position that made haim anxious to be of ser- vice to the comtmunity.
