"A sad accident occurred at Mangatera, Danevirke, yesterday, by which an old and esteemed resident named Anton BERNTSEN lost his life. It seems that he had driven his horse in a dray into the yard at his house and removed the winkers, with the intention of allowing the horse to feed. The animal, however, took fright and started towards the gate, at which it rushed full tilt, carrying with it poor BERNTSEN, who had hung to the horse's head. The poor fellow was frightfully mangled. Dr. MACALLAN was sent for at once and was quickly in attendance, but it was seen at once that nothing could be done for him, and he slowly sank and died at 4.15 p.m. BERNTSEN was 55 years of age and was a married man with a large grown-up family. He had lived upon his farm at Mangatera for many years, and in his unobtrusive way had made many friends. Sincere sympathy will be felt by all with the bereaved family."

Claims (page 1) that Anton and Bodil BERNTSEN paid their passage to New Zealand, so were not assisted immigrants. However, the 1872 "Ballarat" passenger list shows the New Zealand Government subsidised their passage by £17. Anton paid £5 cash for their passage, and gave a promisory note for £30 for the balance of the family's passage.
