Theodore was buried in the old cemetery on 5th April 1886. Some friends took up a collection to mark the grave but purchased a wooden cross that had been standing for eighteen months over the grave of the only Englishman, Mr Banibridge to die in the Tarawera eruption. They did not account for the money remaining -Bruce Herald 23.3.1888 Papers Past
