The following cutting is from The Manchester Guardian dated 3rd October 1931 and relates to the sudden death of Dr. Alexander Robert R. Hudson. Alexander was described as "one of the oldest and best known medical practitioners in the city"
I also checked the excellent Sheffield Indexers site and found this burial record for the Hudson family

The age at the date of death differs from the newspaper report by 4 years but 64 is the correct age as Free BMD has this record
Deaths Dec 1931 Hudson Alexander R R age 64 Sheffield Vol 9c Page 469
And it looks from the burial record that the Hudson family were not new to tragedy
