[edit] Date and place of death corrected

The article stated that Mason died on 18 January 1905 in Rochdale, Lancashire. However, his death certificate, a copy of which I recently obtained, states that he died on 12 January 1905 in Rochford, Essex. I have amended the article accordingly. The cause of death, by the way, is given as "Syphilis[.] Cerebral Embolism[.]"
