Gaige gives name as 'Healey, Frank'. The Sunday Times of 13 Feb. 1859 (supplement, p.3) gives 'Francis Healey'. Gaige gives date of death as 17-02-1906; Sergeant gives date of death as 02-02-1906. Sergeant also says that he died at age 78, but the birth date given by Gaige shows that he was still 77 at his death.
