The Late Mrs. J. A. Waddell
The late Mrs. Ann (Annie) Waddell was the youngest child of the late Thomas Pearse and his wife, Mary, and was related to the Rev. Mark Guy Pearse, the eminent author and evangelist. Born at Witney Green, Cornish Settlement (Byng now), Orange district, the young girl became like many other young people, a decided Christian, under the earnest ministry of the late Rev. W. T. Rabone, and found work as a Sunday School teacher and collector for church funds. Her bright, genial manner and ready humour secured success in usefulness. On the 2nd March, 1871, Miss Pearse was united in marriage with the Rev. John A. Waddell, and for over fifty years was the light of the home as a devoted wife and mother. While carefully rearing her family of six children, time was found to aid in church work by taking a class in the Sunday School, “looking up absent scholars and members of the congregation,” and, above all, visiting the sick and the poor, to comfort them with tender sympathy, and give, if needed, personal service and other practical help. Her brave and submissive spirit bore the loss of five children— cause for tears, but not of repining.
Aiding her husband in his ministry with unfailing sympathy and assistance, and considerate of all but herself, years and toil made rest imperative, and the last thirty years of life confined to the home with much weakness. At the beginning of April last pleurisy quite prostrated the worn frame for three succeeding months, with no complaint by the sufferer, who responded promptly to the words of comfort and prayer to cheer and sustain. She said, “The Lord will do what is best, be it life or death, ” and wished her life had been more useful. Mercifully acute pain was spared, only the weary pilgrim craved “rest.” All that the most attentive medical skill and tender nursing care could do to prolong life was in vain, and the patient sufferer passed peacefully into the “rest eternal and blessed” on Friday evening, June 23rd.

There occurred at Kiama, on Saturday afternoon last, the death of another of the early pioneers of the district in the person of Mrs. Walhl, relict of the late Frederick Wahl, for many years a resident of the Riverdale estate. The deceased lady was a native of the county of Frankfert-a -main, in Germany, and came to this colony some 40 years ago, with her husband and members of her familty, settling down to dairying pursuits on a farm on the Riversdale estate. Here the first fifteen years of their colonial experience was gained, the family proving themselves to be not only industrious, but competent to cope with the wilderness which abounded, in these early lines, on every hand. They next removed to the farm, now occupied by Mr. Robert Ford, where the family resided for many years and where Mr. Wahl departed this life in the year 1888. Bereft of the head of the household, they decided to retire from active dairying, and removed to a cottage in Barney-street, Kiama, where the deceased had resided up till the time of her death. She was, like her husband, industrious and thrifty, and, having gone to that bourn from whence no traveller returns, it cannot be said that she was one who had he wronged a fellow citizen in any way. She leaves a grown up son and daughter to mourn her departure.

[FROM OUR CORRESPONDENT.]
Quite a gloom was cast over our township on Friday, the 19th instant, when It became generally known that Miss Maria Fuller, the daughter of Mr. Thomas Fuller (the manager of one of the local banks), was drowned at Mr. Kendall's beach ; Mr. Fuller being on a visit in the Goulburn district. Daisy Fuller, as she was generally called, was a very interesting and intelligent little girl of seven years of age, and was much esteemed by a large circle of relatives and friends. On Saturday morning an inquest was held before tho coroner, Mr. Henry Connell, J.P., and a jury of twelve, when the following evidence was elicited. Mr. Ritchie, a servant in the employ of Mr. Thomas Chapman, J.P., stated that between five and six on Friday evening he heard ahoy calling out that Daisy Fuller was in the water and that the waves were taking her away ; he immediately ran about fourteen chains to the spot indicated at the sea and saw the body of deceased floating in a deep channel of water between two rocks ; with some difficulty, and the assistance of the boy Robert Leggatt, he succeeded in getting the body-which, was cold, and to all appearance dead-out of the water ; he wrapped his coat round the body, which was quite naked, and ran with it to the residence of Mr. Hayes, some ten chains from the spot; when he took the body out of the water Miss Wake ford and two little girls were close by ; he heard one of them say a wave carried the deceased off the rocks, and the other said she fell in the water ; his own. belief was that if she stood on the rock in question (which is very slippery, and, when the waves receded some 4 feet above water) she might have been swept off by a wave. Miss Blanche Elizabeth Wakeford stated that about 4 on the afternoon of Friday she called on Annie Waldron, and they two went to Kendall's beach to bathe, and they found when they arrived Laura, Amy, and Louisa Waldron, and Agnes Wakeford bathing ; she and Annie Waldron joined the other in the water, and while there, she saw deceased coming down with the towels ; after a while they left the beach, which was comparatively safe, and went to a place in the rocks where the water was not very deep ; in a short time Annie Waldron ordered the children out as they had been in long enough, and observed to her (witness) that the current was too strong to remain; they all went out, and almost immediately after Laura called out that Daisy was in the waves ; they shouted to some boys that a child was drowning; shortly after, W. Ritchie came and rescued the body of deceased from the deep water he hind the rocks where the breakers rushed in ; it was not five minutes between Laura calling out that Daisy was in the water, and her being taken out by Ritchie ; she did not know that Daisy was bathing until she beard she was in the waves-none of them could swim. Laura Waldron stated that her cousin Daisy lived with them ; that Daisy did not get into the water with her cousins ; she was on the rock above the hole where they were bathing; when she (witness) came out to dress, she sent her sister Amy (who was covered with: sand) again to the water ; Amy ran back, saying that there was something in the water ; she ran down and saw Daisy's head floating on the water ; she screamed out to Miss Wakeford and her sister Annie, who rushed out of tho waterhole ; she did not see Daisy go or fall into tho water, or in fact did she know that she was bathing; Daisy had bathed with them on previous occasions ; it was Amy who first saw the deceased in the water, and she (witness) did not know how long she had been there. Dr. Miller stated that the deceased had all the appearance of having been recently submerged in water; there was no respiration, the action of the heart had ceased, and she must have been dead fifteen or twenty minutes; he, however, used the usual means to restore animation for nearly an hour without effect ; he was satisfied that death was caused by suffocation from drowning. The Coroner, on summing up, observed that it was highly important that parents and guardians of children should supervise their bathing on the beach and rocks (where a single step might precipitate them into deep water) by sending some competent person to look after them. A number of children were seen daily wandering over steep rocks and bathing in dangerous places, and it was surprising that more accidents did not take place. The jury returned a verdict of “ Accidentally drowned while bathing at the rocks near Kendall's beach.” The Sydney Morning Herald (NSW : 1842 - 1954) Saturday 27 December 1873

We have also to record, with regret, the death of Mrs. William Wakeford, mother of Mrs. B. Haydon, of Bloomfield, Blandford, who died somewhat suddenly about 4 o'clock on Tuesday morning last, at the residence of Mr. Haydon, Bloomfield. Mrs. Wakefield was the widow of Mr. William Wakeford, who was the contractor for the construction of the railway line from Murrurundi to Willow Tree, which was opened in August, 1877, and was a resident of this district for about 25 years. Mrs. Wakeford, who we understand had reached the age of 80 years, had been indisposed for some little time, but it was not anticipated that her death was so near. Her remains were forwarded to Sydney by the mail train on Wednesday morning,

MRS. ELLEN WAKEFORD
Mrs. Ellen Wakeford, who had conducted a flower shop in Crown-street, Wollongong, for about 20 years, passed away in her sleep at her residence on Sunday morning. She was born in Grenfell 76 years ago, and had been a resident of Wollongong for a very long time. Her late husband, who died 25 years ago, conducted a cycle shop in Wollongong. During the last war, the late Mrs. Wakeford was an ardent worker for the Red Cross and various patriotic organisations and it was a matter of deep regret to her that her health did not allow her to continue doing this work after the outbreak of the present war. She was a member and supporter of the Wollongong Presbyterian Church, and a member of 2WL Friendship Club.
She was also a member of the Wollongong Ladies' Surf Club and one of the original members of the old North Wollongong Ladies' Surf Club.
She is survived by two sons and two daughters, Mrs. Sargeant (South Africa) and Mrs. Heard (Wollongong), Henry and Jack, both of Wollongong. Illawarra Mercury (Wollongong, NSW : 1856 - 1950) Friday 31 March 1944 p 5

DEATH OF MRS. WALDRON
Mrs. Annie Waldron, whose death at the age of 92, occurred at Boundary-street, Roseville, arrived in New South Wales 90 years ago. The voyage was a tragic one, for of the family of nine children, three died before Sydney was reached, as well as Mrs Waldron 's father. The trip occupied seven months.
Mrs. Waldron settled in Wollongong with her mother, but later moved to Kiama, where , she lived for more than 60 years. She married George King Waldron, a son of Captain Waldron, of the 39th Regiment of Foot, but her husband died in 1888.
In later years Mrs. Waldron had lived at Roseville. She could vividly recall her first trip to Sydney from Wollongong, when it was necessary to travel in a bullock team
Mrs. Waldron is survived by two sons and three daughters. Mr F. K. Waldron, of Roseville: Mr. T. W. K. Waldron, city solicitor: Miss Laura and Miss Aimee Waldron, and Mrs. Graham Johnson, of Manly. Another son, Mr. G. C. K. Waldron, who died in 1888, was also city solicitor.

In Prince-street, Sydney, on the 9th of February, 1832, the lady of Captain Charles Waldron, of His Majesty's 39th Regiment, of a daughter-being her fourteenth child.
At Spring Hill, Illawarra, on the 21st ultimo, the lady of Charles Waldron, Esq., J. P., of a son, being her fifteenth child. The Sydney Gazette and New South Wales Advertiser 16 January 1834
At his residence, Spring Hill, Illawarra, at 4 o'clock p. m. , on the 28th January, Captain Charles Waldron, J. P., late of the 39th Regiment. Captain W. was universally respected by all who knew him, and, melancholy to relate, leaves a widow and twelve children to lament his loss.
The circumstances which are supposed to have accelerated the death of the above respected man, were occasioned by a severe fall from the effects of blows received from two incorrigible assigned female servants; and who were not satisfied with that alone, but repeated their blows while he lay on the ground. Shortly after the affray, he was visited with a paralytic stroke, which terminated in death, after a severe illness of 14 days. The Sydney Gazette and New South Wales Advertiser 6 February 1834
SATURDAY.-Before his Honor Judge Button, and a Military Jury,
Sarah M'Gregor and Mary Maloney, convict servants, were severally indicted for the wilful murder of Charles Waldron, at Spring-hill, hear Illawarra, on the 14th January last.
The Court was extremely thronged, from the intense interest which had been excited respecting this trial.
Mrs. Jemima Waldron, the lady of the deceased, deposed, that on the morning named in the indictment, she complained to Sarah M'Gregor that the veranda had. not been washed; prisoner declared it had; her husband, the deceased, called to the prisoner Mary Maloney, and pointed out some tobacco ashes remaining on the floor, on the spot where he had been smoking the night previously; she immediately replied “ that the ashes were from her own pipe, which the had been smoking whilst washing the verandah ;” she immediately left the verandah with her hands uplifted, exclaiming, on language too gross for repetition, “ may every curse fall on you and yours,” and called him “ a b–y old soldier;” the deceased then followed prisoner to the kitchen, remarking, that “ this was not proper language for his family to hear ;” Sarah M'Gregor left the parlour and followed to the kitchen; the prisoners had evidently been drinking, as there was a strong smell of rum; witness saw her husband leaning against the door of the kitchen, with his pipe in hand, and heard him say, “ Mary, you shall go to the Bench,” meaning Police-office; Sarah M'Gregor said, “ if Mary goes, I'll go, we came together, and we will go together ” deceased said, ' you have done nothing to entitle me to send you there, and I shall not do so ;“ prisoner said ” I will give you reasons to send me there ;“ she immediately came forward and struck the deceased a violent blow on the neck, and struck him down the ascent before the door, on the stones, on his left side; both prisoners fell on him, and gave him several violent blows on the neck and head; witness immediately called out and said, ” for God's sake go to the assistance of your master, oh ! save him save him ;“ four men-servants were in sight of the transaction, but did not interfere the blows were given repeatedly, and with the greatest violence; witness made an effort to go towards her husband, but by the time she came up to him, he had risen; she took him by the right arm and said, ” my dear, I am afraid you are hurt ;' he looked at her very sternly, as much as to say something particular had happened, and said, very feebly, “ oh ! no ;” witness then turned to Mary Maloney, and exclaimed, “ you vile woman, what have you done to my husband ?” prisoner immediately pulled up her petticoats, and exposed her person to the view of the whole family ; the male servants were then placed about the house as a security for“ the family ; the language of the prisoners during this time, was of the most disgraceful description ; both were equally violent and outrageous, and insisted upon having their clothes, as they were free, and would not wait for the constables who had been sent for ; the clothes were ultimately given to them to prevent further violence ; the deceased was removed to the parlour, and then wrote a note for Captain Allman, of the Police, who came immediately ; at the time of his arrival, deceased's right side, hand, and arm, had become , useless, and it was with great difficulty he could speak ; deceased was ultimately carried to his bed, in which, he lingered, in an almost insensible state, until the 28th of January, when he breathed his last ; one of the prisoners exclaimed, after the scuffle had taken place, that she would ” run the b–y old soldier through with a knife “; witness immediately sent one of the male-servants to secure the knives ; deceased was a man about 53 years old, of temperate habits, and genial good health-and not subject to fits of passion.
'Mrs. Waldron underwent a rigid cross-examination, from Mr. Rowe, which from its consistency served to strengthen the case for the prosecution.
Wm. Wade, an assigned convict servant to Capt Waldron, deposed, that on the 14th of January, he saw his master down upon his back, in the yard, and saw the prisoners leaning over him, but will swear that he did not see either of them strike him; he corroborated what Mrs. Waldron said -as to the removal of the deceased into the house, and the using of violent and disgraceful expressions, but he denied having seen them expose their persons ; this man swore that he saw his master walking in the garden, after the outrage had been committed by the prisoners. This man's evidence was suspicious.
Charles Waldron, son of the deceased, in every point most strongly proved the evidence of his mother, as to the blows given by the prisoners, and the manner in which they were inflicted.
Captain F. Allman, Police Magistrate, for the District of Illawarra, deposed, that he went to Captain Waldron 's in consequence of a message which he received on the 14th of January ; he found deceased lying on his sofa, in a very agitated state, and apparently under apprehension of death ; deceased was in a state of despondency, and asked witness who would prosecute the women if he did not recover ? nothing more material was elicited from this witness. ,
James King, deposed, that he heard a noise in the house, on the 14th day of January; he saw his master standing at the kitchen door, and heard one of the prisoners laughing; and heard the deceased call her ad - d bitch repeatedly; he denied most positively as to having heard the prisoners make use of disgraceful language, or strike the deceased; he was not struck while standing at the door, but he was shoved out, and fell on his posteriors. This man's evidence was in direct -opposition to the first witness, Mrs. Waldron. ,
Mr. Grove, Surgeon, was called, but did not appear.
His Honor Judge Burton decided, that his evidence was not positively necessary ; it was for the Jury to grope their way to the truth, from the evidence adduced in court.
The learned Judge summed up, after a most painful and protracted examination, touching most minutely on the evidence ; it was impossible he said ' to reconcile the testimony of the first two witnesses, and the two last ; it was for them to consider whether the deceased met his death from the ill usage of the prisoners, or whether he died from temporary apoplexy, or paralysis, produced by strong excitement ; after fully explaining the law, the Jury retired exactly at seven o’clock, and in about half an hour returned a verdict of Guilty.
The Jury recommended the prisoners to mercy, ' on the grounds of their not contemplating “the issue.
The Judge then passed sentence of Death on them, holding out no hopes that, that sentence would be set aside; they had been convicted on the clearest-evidence, of the crime laid to their charge the sentence of the Court therefore was, that they should be taken back to the gaol, and from thence unto the place of Execution, on Monday next, and there to be hung by the neck until their bodies were dead.
The witnesses King and Wade were fully committed to take their trial for perjury. The Sydney Herald 24 February 1834
On the 19th instant, at her residence, Wollongong, JEMIMA, relict of the late Captain WALDRON, H.M. 39th Regiment, aged 84 years — beloved and respected. The Sydney Morning Herald 28 June 1872
South of Wollongong an area of 500 acres was granted to Jemima Waldron on 6 June 1835. This grant was called “Spring Hill” and was obtained by Mrs Waldron in virtue of a promise of grant to George Tate, by Governor Macquarie, dated 22 June 1821, and in pursuance of a report by the Court of Claims. The inference to be drawn is that Mr Tate sold his claim to this land, under a promise of grant, to Mrs Waldron.

A sudden but not altogether untimely death, seeing that the deceased had reached the age of three score and ten, occurred among the residents of our village on Sunday last. Since abandoning dairy farming as an active pursuit, Mr. James Walker, formerly of Loyal Valley, and some years a member of the Borough Council, had with his wife been residing in a cottage near the Protestant Hall here. On Sunday morning Mr Walker was preparing to attend church, and Mrs. Walker was busy about some domestic affairs when she was seized with a dizziness, complained that she could not see what she was doing and presently sunk into swoon, from which in fact she never awoke.
Mr Walker first procured some stimulant from one of the hotels in the village, and then sent a messenger with information of the occurrence to the residence of his daughter, Mrs. W. Barber, who with other friends were soon on the spot, and the services of Dr. Ashe were obtained with all possible speed. The doctor, I understand, pronounced the patients affliction to be a paralytic fit, which was likely to last without much change for a certain number of hours, something like twelve hours was the actual limit of its duration, when the patient expired without having given any sign of returning animation. The funeral was delayed untill Tuesday in order to give some members of the family who resided at a distance the opportunity of attending. As this comment is despatched some hours before that fixed the purpose, it cannot, of course contain any notice of the event. Mrs. Walker had just passed her seventieth year, being, I understand, about four years older than her husband., His family of sons and daughters are well known in the district, Reporter and Illawarra Journal (Kiama, NSW : 1887 - 1894) Wednesday 13 March 1889 p 3

DEATH OF MRS. M. J. WALKER.
With regret we have to record the passing away of Mrs. Margaret Jane Walker, wife of Mr. G. Walker, of William Street, Bulli, at the advanced age of 73 years. The deceased lady had been an invalid for two years, and was unable to get about. She was a prominent member of the Methodist Church, and, when able, attended regularly three times a day. Mrs. Walker was noted for her kindly disposition, and was always ready to help the needy and afflicted. She was born at Raymond Terrace, and was a daughter of one of the pioneers of the South Coast, the late William McDonald, of Mount Keira. The deceased lady came as a child to the Coast, and lived at Keira and Kembla, and the last 14 years of her life at Bulli. Her husband, Mr. G. Walker, three daughters Mrs. Dixon, Mrs. Steele and Mrs. Lewis and four brothers, John, George, Alex and Donald, are left to mourn their loss.

Mrs. James Walker.
Referring to the death of the late Mrs. Jas. Walker, the “South Coast Herald” of Friday last, says : - Last Sunday morningthe residents of Albion Park and surrounding district were James Walker, of “Rushburn,” had expired suddenly whilst on the way to visit her father, Mr. William Moles, J.P.,”Toongla,“ whose property adjoins that of Mr Walker. On leaving for her father's, a quarter of a mile or so away, Mrs. Walker, in company with a little niece, had only crossed the creek when she was seen to fall to the ground. She was at once conveyed to her home in an unconscious state, and Dr. Scott immediately summoned. She, however, notwithstanding the doctor's efforts, expired in a couple of hours' time, the cause of death being cerebral thrombosis (clot of blood on the brain). The deceased lady had only returned home from the Richmond River on Monday, after a sojourn of six weeks there and was looking particularly well. The funeral on Monday was one of the largest ever seen in the district, and at the graveside there was many sorrowing hearts, Mrs. Walker, during her life in the district: having in her spirit of charity and assistance in every good cause, set examples which gained the admiration of everyone who knew her.
The remains, before interment in the Church of England cemetery…She left behind her a blessed memory, particularly with her husband (to whom she had been married about four years) and her adopted sons and daughters. The beauty of her character and the simplicity of her faith were such as we should all strive to emulate, and as a wife and mother she had been deeply devoted to her husband and family. The rev. speaker urged his hearers to take a lesson by the sudden demise of Mrs. Walker, like whom we should live in correct relationship with God and be ready at all times for taking that step into the future which came at a moment when we knew not. Numerous wreaths, telegrams and letters of condolence were received by the bereaved family, who have the sincerest sympathy of all who have heard of the sad occurrence.

MRS. ROBERT WALKER
With the passing at the age at 76 years of Mrs. Robert Walker, in the Wollongong District Hospital last Saturday morning, Cordeaux River has lost one of its oldest and most respected residents. The late Mrs. Walker was a native of Cootamundra and had resided at Cordeaux for over 50 years.
In her younger days she was a noted rider at shows and in later years her chief pleasure was in her garden; her gladioli were famous throughout the district.
She is survived by her husband, one daughter, Pearl (Mrs. J. McNamara) and four sons, Messrs. Ernest, Charles, Robert and Lionel. Mr. Robert Walker junr. is the officer in charge of Woronora Dam. Mr. Charles Walker is well known in show circles and the other sons in cricketing circles. One grandson, Kenneth McNamara, was killed in action in Buna just a year ago.
At the funeral, held on Sunday, a notable attendance was in the number of members of the older generation who were present to pay their respects to one who was so highly esteemed. After a service at St. Francis Xavier's Church, Wollongong, the remains were laid to rest in the Catholic section of the Wollongong cemetery. Mrs. Walker will be sadly missed, not only by her relatives, but by her friends throughout the district with whom we join in extending sympathy to the members of the family.

CENTRAL CRIMINAL COURT.
[Abridged from the S M. Herald.]
THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 2, 1848.
ABDUCTION.Thomas Graves was indicted for taking a girl under the age of sixteen, named Clarinda Thomas, from her home without the consent of her parents, on the 25th.October, 1847.
Mr. Holroyd appeared for the defence. It appeared that on that day William Thomas allowed his daughter and her cousin, Caroline Waller, to go from Dapto to Kiama accompanied by Graves; as nothing was heard of them for some days. Thomas's son went in search of his sister, and met with her on her way to Wollongong accompanied by Graves and Caroline Waller; the girl refused to return home, and young Thomas at last consented to her going to Sydney to act as bride-maid to Caroline Waller, whom Graves told him he intended to marry. On reaching Sydney it appeared that Graves was married to Clariuda Thomas; who however, after on absence of eight months, returned home, and now lived with her parents again.
The jury returned a verdict of not guilty. The Maitland Mercury & Hunter River General Advertiser 8 November 1848

OBITUARY
The death is announced of Mrs. Catharine Walsh, at the residence of her daughter (Mrs. Silver), Broughton Street, Drummoyne, on Wednesday last. Mrs. Walsh was an old resident of Gerringong, and mother of Mrs, C, D. Young, of Jamberoo.
Her remains were conveyed to Gerringong by train on Thursday for Interment at the Roman Catholic cemetery. The Kiama Reporter and Illawarra Journal (NSW : 1899 - 1947) Saturday 1 July 1899 p 2
The Late Mrs. J. Walsh
The death is announced of the late Mrs. J. Walsh, a lady who might rightly be regarded as one of the pioneers of the South Coast, and whose children are now scattered about in different districts, worthily filling their parts as citizens in this thriving native country. The deceased passed away on June 28th, at the residence of her daughter, Mrs. Joseph Sylva, Drummoyne, from heart failure, she having attained the ripe age of 77 years. Born in Queen's County, Ireland, Mrs. Walsh arrived with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. M. O'Mara, in this colony in 1829, and was married to the late Mr. John Walsh in Campbelltown 61 years ago. She was the mother of twelve children, nine of' whom survive her— four sons and five daughters. For seventy years Mrs. Walsh was a resident of the South Coast, and few knew the history of the district better than she, or had a larger fund of anecdotes concerning it. Of a kindly and genial disposetion, with a bright intelligence, she was a general favorite and much respected by a large circle of friends and acquaintances, who, with her many relations will sincerely mourn her loss. For a number of years she had (says the Kiama “Independent”) been a sufferer, but personal suffering never prevented her from extending, her kindly help and sympathy to a friend. Many a long ride she took in the early days of the bush tracks, when doctors and nurses were few and far between, to give her ready help and nursing skill to one in distress whether friend or stranger. With true Christian spirit and fortitude, she prepared to meet the end, which was calm and peaceful, and a fitting one to a long life of usefulness. Her remains were, brought to Gerringong t June 29th for interment, the Rev. Father Barlow officiating. Some beautiful wreaths were sent by friends and relatives and a large number of persons, gathered at the grave.
The late Mrs. Walsh was the honoured mother of Mr. Michael Walsh, of. Yatteyattah, and Mr. Alfred Walsh of Woodburn in this district, the last named being her youngest child.The Ulladulla and Milton Times (NSW : 1891 - 1917) Saturday 8 July 1899 p 5

In the Clifton Court, on Wednesday, before the P.M. (Col. Chisholm), James Ward, Richard Ward (his son), Thomas Smith, and Mary (?) Ward, were charged with having inflicted grievous bodily harm on John Coffee on September 30th.
Mr. Lysaght appeared for the defence. Prisoners had been charged the previous week, and were remanded on the ground that Coffee was to ill to attend. John Coffee deposed that on the 29th, James Ward had, while witness was at work, come up to him in a drunken state, and abused him; witness gave Ward a shove and he sat down- and was taken away by a man named Cozier ; the next morning when witness was passing Ward's place, on his way to work, James Ward spoke to him about the previous day's incident ; Smith struck witness with a stick, and Jas. Ward ditto with a whip ; witness in trying to get out of the way, fell over a stump,
Richard Ward then got on top of him, and struck him several times, while Thomas Smith held his hands ; witness freed his hands, caught hold of Richard Ward, and getting up fell on him ; Mrs. Ward then caught witness by the leg, kicked him, and pulled him off her son, saying ' Give it to the brute ' ; witness appealed to her not to let them murder him, and she said, that would do ; witness then got up and went home. Dr. Dixon deposed to the injuries ; the wounds were not of a serious nature.
The P. M. here reduced the charge to one of assault. The case was adjourned till November 5th. Accused were bound on their own recognizances in the sum of £5 each. There is a cross action, James Ward against John Coffee, for breaking an arm. South Coast Times and Wollongong Argus (NSW : 1900 - 1954) Saturday 11 October 1902 p 11
Researchers Note: This woman may not have been in the Illawarra. A Jane Ward was separated from her husband James Ward in 1885 up in the Hunter coal fields; when she applied for maintenance for her 2 children (not the 5 this family had) it was rejected as she had moved in as ‘housekeeper’ to another man and was in a relationship with him and the new man was expected to support her children. I can find some references to her husband James being in the Clifton area but I cannot find if this was Jane his wife or a new woman Mary or an error in the South Coast Times reporting. Five of the children lived in the Illawarra and when they died their mother was properly listed.

On Sunday, 2nd, instant, about 7.30 p.m., there passed away at her late residence, Mount Brandon, Jamberoo, Mary Jane, wife of Mr. John Thomas Ward. Deceased had not been well for a few weeks previous, but the sudden ending to her useful life was not expected, and it cast quite a gloom over the district. Deceased was a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Tate, of Jamberoo, where she was born and spent all her life in the district, with the exception of a few years of her childhood at Broughton Village with her parents during their residence there, afterwards returning with them to Jamberoo.
Deceased was married at Church of England, Wollongong, and in addition to her sorrowing husband, her two daughters, Ivy and Mary Ward, and her two sons, Clifford and Kell Ward, survive; one son, Norman Ward, having died in his infancy. The deepest sympathy is expressed with them all, also with deceased's sorrowing parents and relatives, whose deep affection, for the departed one was well known.
During her illness deceased was attended by Dr. Fox, and she was tenderly nursed by her two daughters, and her mother (Mrs. John Tate, senr.) their devotion was deeply appreciated by deceased. During her life time, Mrs. Ward had, through her good nature, made many friends, her happy disposition, friendly, homely and cheerful ways brightened all those she came in contact with, whether in sickness or in health.
The funeral took place on Wednesday, and the cortege was a exceptionally long one.
In the Church of England, Jamberoo (where deceased had often worshipped, and which Church her forefathers gave good aid to erect) a service was conducted by Rev. A, Reeves, Rector who also performed the last sad rites at the graveside, the pall-bearers being relatives of deceased and Church officers (deceased's husband being a Church warden). At the Church service Rev. A.. Reeves made touching reference to deceased, and extended all sympathy to the bereaved ones in their deep sorrow. …
All the relatives of deceased attended the funera; with the exception of her sister, Mrs. Bleman, of Penshurst, who, while on her way to attend the funeral, unfortunately happened with an accident, which prevented her from catching the train.
…, since but 4 months previously they had suffered bereavement in the death of the late Mrs. Curry, a sister, of the deceased. The Kiama Independent, and Shoalhaven Advertiser (NSW : 1863 - 1947) Wednesday 12 August 1914 p 2

Some months later he found them living together in a bag humpy at South Clifton, and in April last, when the papers were served on her, he saw her with a child, three years of age, which she stated was Dick Ward's. As he had to pay debts which she had contracted, he had not been in a position to take proceedings earlier.

GOLDEN WEDDING
Mr and Mrs. H. WarrenFifty years ago, on 22nd May, 1894, Mr. Henry Warren and Miss Elizabeth Ross, both then residing at Shellharbour, were married at St. Paul's Catholic Church, Albion Park by the Rev. P. McIntyre, Mary O'Dwyer being the bridesmaid.
On Sunday last, at their residence, Brown Street, Kiama, their Golden Wedding was celebrated with a gathering of relatives, and the old couple received many congratulations and good wishes for many happy, returns and that they would be spared to celebrate their Diamond Wedding.
The tables were prettily decorated in golden tones, and pride of place was accorded to a beautiful Wedding cake, made by Mrs. H. Warren herself. Their eldest son, Mr. Thomas Warren, proposed the toast of his parents, which was accorded musical honours, and he made the presentation from the family of a roll of notes. Mr. Henry Warren responded for his wife and himself and sang a favourite song of his young days, “Sweet Annie”, playing his accompaniment on his accordion.
Their children who were present at the celebration were Tom, Richard and James, of Kiama, Maggie (Mrs. F. Fahey, Jamberoo) and Annie (Mrs. S. Drew, Sydney). Another son, Jack, was unable to attend, as he was engaged in defence work up North. The other son of Mr. and Mrs. Warren, Henry, was killed in the Great War.

Clarence W. Elderkin and Wife v. Alexander Lance.
This was an action to recover £200 for malicious prosecution.
Mr. Woodward for plaintiffs, Mr. Blackett, instructed by Mr. Russell, for defendant.
Arthur George Plunkett, C.P.S., at Bulli, produced all papers in the case
Lance v. Elderkin, heard before the Bulli Police Court, when Mrs. Elderkin was charged with having in her possession fifteen yards of print reasonably supposed to have been stolen: evidence having been taken on behalf of the prosecutor, the information was dismissed, on the ground that the evidence disclosed no offence; the charge should have been for stealing or receiving the goods.
Senior-Constable Reynolds deposed that by virtue of a search-warrant he went to the house occupied by Mrs. Elderkin and Mrs. Smith, and searched the premises ; the articles referred to in the warrant were 14 pairs of ladies' hose, 8 towels, and 30 yards of flannel ; the first warrant was made out in the name of Mrs. Kearns, mother of Mrs. Elderkin, who resided on the premises, but Mrs. Elderkin said she was the tenant of the house, and would not let him search the place until a second warrant had been obtained ; he searched the rooms occupied by Mrs. Smith and Mrs, Elderkin, but found none of the articles named in the warrant ; in a trunk he found a roll of print of similar pattern to that produced, also a piece of cretonne ; asked Mrs. Elderkin where she got them from, and she said she brought them from Melbourne ; he asked her if he could take a pattern, and she said he could ; his reason for so doing was that, he had heard other articles had been stolen from defendant's store ; he could not find any material of similar pattern in Bulli except at defendant's ; Mrs. Elderkin was charged with having goods in her possession reasonably supposed to have been stolen, but the information was dismissed on a technical point ; the Elderkin's had been at Woonona for three or four months.
Cross-examined : Portions of the goods stolon were taken from the front of the shop; from what he heard, he advised defendant to issue a search-warrant ; Mr. Bedford, defendant's assistant, gave him certain information as to what had taken place ; he said Mrs. Kearns, Mrs. Elderkin, and Mrs. Smith wore standing outside the shop on the Saturday night ; a little girl named Hannah Griffith said she was playing in front of the store that night, when one of them told her to go away ; the girl said that she saw them turn away from the stuff under the verandah, and heard a little girl who was with them ask them what they had got; defendant told her that, the stuff afterwards missed had been watched by Bedford, that his attention was called away for a few minutes, and he went into the shop; the stuff was there then, and the three women were outside ; when he returned both the stuff and the women were gone ; the girl Griffith then told Bedford what she had seen and heard ; all these facts were known to himself and defendant when he suggested the issue of a warrant ; whilst he was waiting for the second warrant the door was slammed, and he heard a noise inside as if things were being knocked about; when he went back to defendant's shop, after finding the print and cretonne as described, he asked Bedford if he had lost any print ; Bedford picked up a roll and asked if he had found any like that, stating that he had lost a roll of that pattern ; he went back to Mrs. Elderkin, and asked for a piece of the print and cretonne, which she gave him ; he took the patterns to the shop, and found the piece to be exactly similar to the roll shewn him by Bedford, who said they had lost a piece of cretonne of similar pattern ; he then returned to Mrs. Elderkin's, and asked for the piece of print he had seen in her bedroom ; she brought it out, but it was not in the same state as when he first saw it ; it was then rolled up, but afterwards it was crumpled and put about; there was not such a large quantity of it on the second occasion : these circumstances appeared very suspicious, and seemed to warrant a prosecution ; he believed the articles had been stolen from defendant's shop ; when he went to Elderkin's first he saw a new Turkish towel, and it was removed ; when he asked for the towel they gave him a draper towel that had been washed ; Mrs. Smith said she had purchased three draper towels from Mrs. Goodall's ; he inquired at Mrs. Goodall's, and she said she had not sold any, and had never kept any in stock ; he suggested that the summonses should be issued.
Isabella Elderkin stated that she had resided in Bulli since the 7th June, living in the same house with her cousin, Mrs. Smith; she knew defendant by sight, and had been in his shop twice; Senior- constable Reynolds came to her house, and asked to see her mother, Mrs. Kearns, who went outside to him ; Reynolds afterwards asked her if she had any objection to his searching the house ; she asked him who sent him, and what he was searching for; he said defendant, had lost somethings ; she said if defendant had any suspicion on her, let him take out a warrant in her name, as she and Mrs. Smith occupied the house ; he went away to a side fence and called to defendant, and afterwards came back, standing outside for a short time ; when she knew he was outside Mrs. Smith opened the door, and asked him to come inside and take a chair ; he sat neat the door for a short time, and afterwards went into the backyard, and talked to her husband; defendant afterwards came to the front door, and she called Reynolds, who then received a warrant from him, and read it, her husband, mother, and Mrs. Smith being present ; he then proceeded to search the house ; he found the print in a trunk in her room, and also the cretonne; she brought both the articles with her from Melbourne ; she bought the print for a dress for her sister, but when she found it was of such poor quality, she used part of it as lining for a dress ; she afterwards handed Reynolds the whole piece ; the cretonne was purchased for bed-hangings the search-warrant mentioned fourteen pairs of ladies' hose, eight towels, and 30 yards of flannel none of the articles were found on the premises, and she know nothing about them ; the case was heard on the 2nd of November, and was dismissed ; as a result of the prosecution, she had been slighted by her friends; her husband was a surveyor by profession, but was now carrying on business as a photographer, and it had injured him in his business.
Cross examined : When Senior-constable Reynolds asked for the towel, he did not say it was not the one he wanted ; she told him he could have two if he liked; her husband had done a good business along the coast, chiefly in enlarging photographs; the print was not interfered with between the times Reynolds was at the house ; the two pieces produced were all that he saw ; her mother and herself were on the verandah of defendant's shop on the previous Saturday night ; there were a quantity of goods outside ; they might have had long cloaks on ; they were looking at a hat she had priced in the window ; two ladies were at the front of the shop when they went in, and were there when they left ; there were some children playing outside, but did not notice who they were ; no one told a little girl to go away from the front of the store, and no little girl asked them what they had got ; they had not to lean over the goods outside to look in the windows ; did not know the girl Harriet Griffiths till she saw her at the Police Court.
Clarence William Elderkin, husband of previous witness, corroborated her evidence in the main particulars; he said he was not hard up; he had earned £5 per week in Victoria, and £2 10s to £3 since he had been in the district ; he had never been hard enough up to steal, or his wife either.
Jane Kearns and Bertha Smith also gave evidence of a similar nature…..Illawarra Mercury (Wollongong, NSW : 1856 - 1950) Tuesday 29 November 1892 p 2

DEATH OF Mrs. WATERS
Despite the fact that her end was not altogether unexpected, it came as a shock to the community to learn, on Sunday night, of the death of Mrs. Mary Esther Waters, beloved wife of Mr.. William Waters, a well known Wollongong business man. Deceased had not been in robust health for the past five years, and had practically been an invalid during the last two years.
A woman of high ideals, a good citizen and a devoted wife and mother, town and district will be the poorer for her passing. Before illness overtook her she was one of the leading workers for the Methodist Church, consistent in her support and assiduous in her attention to the means of spiritual grace.
Born in Pembrokesbire (South Wales) 67 years ago, the late. Mrs. Waters arrived in Sydney by the sailing ship Star of India in November 1882..Her family — her maiden name was Waters, and marriage did not change it — resided in Sydney, a few months and then came to Mount Kembla, just about the time the colliery opened. .Her; father the late Mr. John Waters, was an engineer, and he assembled the first locomotive used at the colliery. Incidentally, he was one of the finest local preachers the district has ever possessed.
Thirty five years ago Miss Waters married Mr. William Waters, the issue of the union being three daughters and two sons — May, Edith and Olive, Jack and Will. All are well known and esteemed citizens who take an active interest in church work, and also in musical matters.
The large and representative attendance at the funeral, on Monday, bore eloquent testimony to the high esteem in which the deceased lady was held, the remains being intered in the Methodist cemetery. South Coast Times and Wollongong Argus (NSW : 1900 - 1954) Friday 27 May 1932 p 14

WATERWORTH—CROFT.— By special licence, at St. Francis Xavier's Church, Wollongong, on February 9th, 1887, by the Rev. Dr. Sheehy, ARTHUR, third son of Mr. James Waterworth, Campbelltown, to Elizabeth, youngest daughter of Mr. Wm. Croft, of Wollongong. Illawarra Mercury (Wollongong, NSW : 1856 - 1950) Saturday 26 February 1887 p 2
Lastly, it becomes our painful duty to record the death of Mrs. Arthur Waterworth, of Clifton (daughter of our respected townsman, Mr. William Croft.) This young lady, who most deservedly was a favourite with all who knew her, and was married about a year ago, died on Sunday last. She had been unwell some days last week, and on Friday, a fire which unfortunately occurred in the chimney of their residence so effected her, that premature labor was brought on, accompanied by very serious symptoms. Dr. Thompson was called in, and also Dr. Sturt, of Bulli, but their united skill proved unavailing to save her life, as she passed away on the day stated. The announcment in town of her unexpected end caused quite a gloom to fall upon all who knew her, as no person could be even casually acquainted with her without liking her in life, and lamenting her in death. Such being the fact, it follows that wide-spread sympathy is felt for her bereaved husband, parents and other relatives. It will be noticed that her funeral will move from the Wollongong railway station to-day on the arrival of the mid-day train from Clifton.

It is with deep regret that I have to record the death of another of the oldest residents of this district, viz., Mrs. James Waterworth, of Campbelltown, who died in the Prince Alfred Hospital on Wednesday, 21st instant, at the age of 61 years.

TAYLOR-THOMPSON. — November 15th, 1897, at the Presbyterian Church, Woonona, by the Rev. Jas. Lawrie, Fred A. Taylor, of Birmingham (Eng.), to A. Thompson, third daughter of Capt. Thompson, of Wollongong. Illawarra Mercury (Wollongong, NSW : 1856 - 1950) Thursday 30 December 1897 p 2
A LOCAL DIVORCE CASE,
The Taylor divorce case was continued on Thursday.
The respondent, Andrina Taylor, further cross-examined by Mr. Malston, said she went into the witness room on the previous day, but denied that she asked a certain girl what, evidence she was going to give
She never told Dr. Lee that her husband ill-treated her but she spoke to her aunt, Mrs. S. Thompson, about his treatment. She never took medicine for an improper purpose. When she was getting married unknown to her parents Mrs. S. Thompson told the minister that her (respondent's) parents were dead, and that she (Mrs. S. Thompson) was witness's guardian. Witness and Mrs. Thompson were on friendly terms until petitioner turned witness out of his house. It was not until after that that unfriendly relations sprang up between them.
Elizabeth Rose Corrigan examined by Mr. Lysaght said that either in July or August of 1900 she went on a Monday to stay with Mrs. Taylor whilst Mr. Taylor went on a fishing excursion to Jervis Bay. While she was at Mrs Taylor's house witness never saw any impropriety between her and Mr Watson.
Andrew Thompson, examined by Mr. Lysaght, said he was father of Mrs. Taylor. He was angry with Mr. Taylor, as any father would be for taking away his daughter without his consent and marrying her whilst under age. Witness corroborated the respondent's statements as to acts of violence by the petitioner upon his wife at Mr. Thompson's house at Wollongong. He turned Taylor out of his house because he took witness's son on to the Wollongong cycle track on a Sunday to ride a bicycle, and because he used very bad language in the presence of witness's family. When he was going by train to Como with Taylor, the latter said, ' Well, dad, you assist me all you can and I will go for Watson and damages, and whatever damages I get I will divide with you.' Witness replied, “No I never took a man down in my life, and I won't take him down.'
This closed the case for the respondent.
Alfred Charles Watson, co respondent, a district inspector of the electrical engineering department of the railways, said he was stationed at Wollongong during 1898 and 1900. When visiting the house of the petitioner, witness called Mrs. Taylor Rima, and did so in the presence of Taylor. On the return of Mrs. Taylor from Mudgee Mr. Taylor asked witness to stay with them as a boarder. Prior to becoming a boarder he heard Taylor use bad language towards his wife. Within the first month witness was a boarder Taylor began to use bad language, and to act violently towards Mrs. Taylor. On one occasion he struck her, and she fainted. The effect of those assaults was that Mrs Taylor cried and became ill.
He explained to Taylor on the morning of October 4 that he went into the kitchen and asked Mrs. Taylor for a cup of tea. Mrs Taylor gave him a flip in the face, and he caught hold of her arm.
Cross examined by Mr. Shand : Taylor had on two occasions pushed Mrs. Taylor on to his ( witness's) bed while he was there reading. Petitioner had also pushed his wife on to him while he was sitting on a chair in the dining-room. Taylor said after the bed incident that it was only a joke.
Sarah Thompson (Mrs. Taylor's aunt) and Isabella Margaret Talbot also gave evidence. Illawarra Mercury (Wollongong, NSW : 1856 - 1950) Saturday 22 June 1901 p 2
Frederick Arthur Taylor, a mechanic, sought a divorce from Andrina Taylor (formerly Thompson), on the ground of adultery with Alfred Charles Watson, an assistant electrical engineer, who was Joined as co-respondent.
Petitioner claimed £1000 damages.
Respondent denied the allegation of adultery, and cross charged the petitioner with having repeatedly beaten and assaulted her, and with having been guilty of cruelty towards her. She asked for a divorce on these grounds, or, failing that, a Judicial separation, and In either case permanent maintenance.
The issues raised on behalf of the co-respondent were whether the petitioner had been guilty , of cruelty towards the respondent, and whether the petitioner had been guilty of such wilful neglect or misconduct as had conduced to the adultery (If any) alleged.
Petitioner denied the allegations set up by respondent, and by co-respondent.
The Jury found that tho respondent committed adultery with the co-respondent, and gave £150 damages against the co-respondent, to he paid into Court within three weeks. His Honor made a decree nisi, returnable in one month, co-respondent to pay petitioner's costs and costs o frespondent, which petitioner had been ordered to meet.

Death of Mrs. Geo. Watson.
The death of Mrs. Geo. Watson, at the advanced age 74 years, occurred at the homestead, Numba, early on Tuesday morning last. Deceased had been in good health up to some few months ago when she had a serious illness but it was thought she had recovered. However on Monday night became suddenly ill and passed away some few hours afterwards.
The late Mrs. Watson might be classed as one of the pioneers of the district having resided with her husband at Kangaroo Valley for over 30 years prior to them going to live at Numba.
Besides her bereaved husband she leaves a large grown-up family members of whom are Messrs James and Thomas Watson of Kangaroo Valley, Fred, of the Government printing Office of Sydney, George and Ted (Northern Rivers), Christy and Herb. (Numba), and Mrs P. Lestrange (Kangaroo Valley), Mrs. T. Kavanagh (Nowra), Mrs. Warland (Sydney), Mrs. T Price and Mrs. Sinclair (North Coast) and Mrs J. Nelson (Kangaroo Valley).
The funeral took place on Wednesday and was largely attended, her mortal remains being laid to rest in the Presbyterian portion of the Nowra public cemetery. The Nowra Leader (NSW : 1909 - 1939) Friday 10 November 1916 p 4

Late Mrs. A. M. Watson
An old district resident, and one who has lived on the coast for practically all her life, Mrs. Annie Maria Watson, died at her daughter's residence (Mrs. Fred Buckland), Brownlie street, Wollongong, on Friday last, aged 76. years.
The late Mrs. Watson was born at Bulli, and after her marriage lived for a short period in Sydney. They returned to Wollongong, where she has lived for nearly 40 years. A woman of quiet but unassuming disposition, she had made a host of friends and her death was sincerely regretted. She had been in failing health for the past two years.
Her husband, the late Mr. Henry Watson, predeceased her about eight years ago.
A family of seven survive — Ethel (Mrs. Coates, of Port Kembla), Emily (Mrs. E. J. Buckland, Wollongong), Millie (Mrs. Fred Buckland, Wollongong), Gladys (Mrs. T. Reynolds, Port Kembla) , Alice (Mrs. E. Turner, Wollongong), Albert, of Wollongong, and Arthur of Port Kembla.
The funeral on Saturday was a very representative one and a fine tribute to esteem in which deceased was held by all sections of the community. After a short service in the Congregational Church the funeral moved to the Congregational cemetery where the interment took place.

On her grave it is stated she was from Limmerick Ireland and was born in abt 1795 and died in 1867. This conflicts with her immigration record and her obituary.
I have to mention the decease of an old resident of the neighbourhood in the person of the wife of Mr. John Watson. The aged pair between whom there was only a difference of a few weeks, were both approaching their 89th year, and it is hardly necessary to say that the proximate cause of death in this instance was mere decay of nature. Mrs. Watson, who was attended by several members of her family, expired on Saturday last about 3 pm., and was buried in the Presbyterian Church yard on Monday afternoon, the Rev. J. Wilson officiating at the funeral. Mr. and Mrs, Watson had been about 33 years in the district, and as they had lived in no other part of the world but the County of Lincolnshire, England, they were, of course, not young when they left the old country. Their oldest son, John, had preceeded them to Australia. The rest of the family, three sons and two daughters, came with them; and their progeny is now very numerous, the families of THREE of their grand children making up, as I was told the other day, an aggregate of forty persons. Reporter and Illawarra Journal (Kiama, NSW : 1887 - 1894) Wednesday 26 October 1887 p 2
I have to correct on or two slips of the pen which occurred in last Wednesday’s notice of the death of Mrs. Watson. The three families mentioned as making up so large a total were those of her son Mr. George Watson, and her two daughters, Mrs. Harris and Mrs. Faulks ; but two or three of those who would have made up the forty are dead,. There are several great grandchildren I don't know how many.

LATE MRS. G. WATSON.
In the passing away of the late Mrs. George Watson, at the Kiama Hospital on July 2, an honored and esteemed resident has been removed from our midst. She was born at Richmond, near Windsor, in this State, on the 13th May, 1860, and her maiden name was Ball. At the age 22,years she was married to Mr. George Watson, of Jamberoo, by the late Rev. C. W. Hughes. It was about 5 years after her marriage that the great spiritual change came in her life,, which developed and ennobled her character. For more than 20 years she was a consistent and earnest member of the Methodist Church, Jamberoo, assisting both in church and Sunday school work. In the year 1892 she passed through a severe trial, occasioned by the death of two of her children, which was borne with true Christian fortitude. As a neighbor she was much respected and indeed beloved. 12 months ago she was seized with a severe illness which was the primary cause of her death.
The family having first removed to Gerringong and then to Foxground, it was necessary to have her conveyed to the Kiama Hospital for medical treatment; but careful nursing, kind attention and medical skill were of no avail and she passed away as stated, trusting firmly in Him who had been the Guide and strength of her life. She leaves behind her a loving husband and five children to mourn their loss, but the memory of her Christian work will and does go far in helping them to bear their great trial. The respect in which she was held was clearly shown by the great gathering of friends which assembled at the graveside. The Rev. C. Stead gave an address and the Rev, J. Bathgate and Rev. H. M. Riley (from Gerringong) took part in the funeral service. The Kiama Independent, and Shoalhaven Advertiser (NSW : 1863 - 1947) Saturday 25 July 1908 p 2

Her remains were interred on Tuesday afternoon in the Church of of England cemetery, Mr. Dug. Macdonald conducting tho obsequies and Rev. H. Jobson performing the last sad rites.

THE LATE MISS ANN WAUGH,
ON Thursday last week the mortal remains of Miss Ann Waugh were cominitted to the grave in the burying ground of the Presbyterian Church, Jamberoo. She was one of the excellent of the earth, devoting her energies for many years to the work of doing good to the community in which she lived. She taught in the Jamberoo Presbytrian Sunday School from about the time she arrived in the district, in 1846. Till a few years ago; increasing infirmite compelled her to renounce the work in which she had been so interested, We have no doubt that her former pupils in Jamberoo, many of whom are now in other parts of our territory, will hear of her death with deep regret. No one can ex press how much this district owes to her Christian character, her devotion to the best interests of the young, and to the moral and religious progress of the community. Though cherishing kind feelings towards all sections of the Christian Church. she was strongly attached to the Presbyterian, in which she was brought up, and in whose. interests she faithfully laboured. Her humble Christian faith, her steadfast adherence to Christian truth, and her upright walk and conversation, will not soon be forgotten. She died in the eighty-ninth year of her age. She was born in in Edinburgh in 1817, arrived in this colony in 1838, lived with her brother (Dr. Waugh) at Goulburn till about 1846, when she carme to this district, in which she resided (with the exception of a visit to Edinburgh in 1888) till her death,. She was the daughter of John Waugh, Esq. (of the firm of Waugh and Innes, publishers to the Church of Scotland), the sister of David L, Waugh, J.S, (long an esteemed elder of the Presbyterian Church), aind the aunt of the Rev. R. H. Waugh, M.A., now the respected minister of the Church at Neutral Bay, and ex.Moderator of the Presbyterian Church of New South Wales.

LUCY WEARY.
Sister Weary was born in Kent, England, in the year 1815. She was very early in life the subject of religious impressions, and under the preaching of a godly independent minister she was from youth to womanhood strengthened in the faith. She was married early in life to Thomas Charles Weary, who died twelve years ago. After leaving England Sister Weary and her husband, on arriving m Australia, first settled at Jamberoo. There, with few services to attend, Sister Weary lost her hold of Christ and became a backslider. After a time they removed to Morpeth, and there, while listening to a sermon from the text, 'He restoreth my soul,' she once more threw herself upon the mercy of Christ, and became wholly the Lord's.
From that hour to the time of her death she walked with God. There was no excitable outside show, but a deep inner life that showed how true her heart was. She was a woman of some character, a great reader, and with a very remarkable memory. Like Doras in the infant church, she was known for her charity. Always poor herself in her widowhood, never asking of any, earning her living to the last, yet she found time to make up clothes for poor families, and many a worn dress or suit she turned or remade for some poor child. Her devotion to the church of her choice was strong, and she was always in her place twice a day when health permitted. Though 78 years of age her mind was clear, and like a shock of corn ready for the heavenly garner she passed away. Her death was improved in the Casino Wesleyan Church last Sunday night to a large audience The Methodist (Sydney, NSW : 1892 - 1954) Saturday 23 December 1893 p 8

For some considerable time Miss Keller has taken a keen interest in this most important branch of education, and it is . gratifying to know that her ability and enthusiasm have received recognition.

MRS. MARY ANN WEBB
Mrs. Mary Ann Webb, who passed away at the home of her daughter, Mrs. W. J. Langdon, Main rd., Thirroul, on Monday night, was the relict of Mr. Daniel Webb, who was the first storekeeper in Thirroul.
Born in England 96 years ago, she was married at St Martins-in-the-Fields, 72 years ago and shortly after her marriage, sailed for Australia with her husband on the Dunbar Castle. The journey took three months. On arrival in Australia they went to Broughton Creek, Berry, for about twelve months before coming to Thirroul, then known as Newtown. In all Mrs. Webb had resided in Thirroul for 71 years.
Her late husband built the premises now occupied by the South Coast Standards and opened a general store. Prior to that residents of Thirroul had to go to Bulli for supplies, and any journeys to Sydney were made by stage coach through Campbelltown. Mr. Webb was later the licensee of the present Hotel Ryan.
At the time Mrs. Webb came to Thirroul there were only about half a dozen houses, and right up to the time of her death she was able to vividly relate many stories dealing with the development of the town.
Despite her advanced years she had enjoyed comparatively good health until about a fortnight ago. She is survived by a family of seven, two daughters having predeceased her, twenty grand-children, twenty-six great grand-children and two great-great grandchildren.
Members of her family were: Alice (Mrs. Frew, Thirroul), Arthur (Eastwood), Annie (Mrs. Neate dec'd.), Ada (Mrs Eagles, Thirroul), Gertrude (Mrs Ackhurst, Thirroul), William (Bexley), Ethel (Mrs. W. Langdon, Thirroul); Clwyda (dec'd), Edith (Thirroul).
Following a service at Williams' funeral chapel on Tuesday, the cortege moved to the Woronora Crematorium. Illawarra Mercury (Wollongong, NSW : 1856 - 1950) Thursday 7 July 1949 p 2

A very sad case of an unexpected death occurred last Tuesday, when Mrs Weber wife of our most respected teacher, Mr G Weber, succumbed in confinement. The deceased lady was a true helpmate to her husband, the idol of the school children, beloved and respected , by young and old and always ready with her help and sympathy in any matter concerning the public welfare. A sorrowing husband and three little children mourn their sad loss. Mr. Weber has the profound sympathy of friends and neighbour. The funeral took place on Thursday morning, the Rev. G. M.

The Late Mrs. Carl Weber.
The sad news of the sudden death of Mrs. Weber, wife of Mr. Carl Weber, surveyor, of Smith -street, on Saturday night last, caused quite a shock throughout Wollongong on becoming known. She had been somewhat unwell during the last three months, but only on Tuesday week last did her illness give special anxiety to her family. And even up to the moment of her death no fear of such an immediate result was entertained. On Saturday evening, however, symptoms being not as desired, Dr. Lee, who had been attending to her throughout,
was called in, and during his visit at 9 she suddenly passed away by heart failure. The deceased lady was most exemplary in the best attributes of woman. As a wife and a mother she was devoted and true in the full sense of the expression, as her sorrowing husband and family are best aware of, with sacred memory. In accordance with an oft-expressed wish by the deceased, and at the request, of her parents (residing at Silvania, George's River), the remains were taken by train to Sutherland on Monday forenoon, and buried in the Church of England cemetery there beside those of a dear sister. At the request of Rev. G. D'Arcy Irvine, the local C. E. clergyman conducted the burial service.
She was a daughter of Captain William Rice, and had completed the 47th year of her age, leaving a husband, three sons, and four daughters to mourn their loss, and for whom much sympathy is felt in their bereavement. Illawarra Mercury (Wollongong, NSW : 1856 - 1950) Wednesday 15 April 1903 p 2

THE death took place at about 8.30 yesterday morning, at his residence in Torralong-street, of Mr. Alfred Webly, for some 22 years a resident of this town.

DEATH OF MRS. DAVID WEIR. .
On Easter Monday there, passed away another of the fine and noble pioneer women of the South Coast district in the person of Mrs. David Weir, at the advanced age of 88 years. For 68 years Mrs. Weir was identified with Kiama, and nobly did her part as wife, mother, neighbour, and friend. The late Mrs. Weir came as a young girl with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Wm, Clarke to New South Wales from County of Fermanagh, Ireland, and married the late David Weir at the age of 21, who predeceased her about 10 years ago. All through their married life they made their living on the land, and in building up their home in the strenuous work of farm life. A family of ten were cared for to do honour to her training in after years; eight of them survive her. Her eldest son, Robert, was the first Australian to be buried on foreign soil, for he died in the Soudan from enteric fever while on active service, as a volunteer responding to the first call made to Australia from the home land. A daughter also predeceased her. Left to mourn a dearly loved mother are three daughters in Mrs D. E. Weir, Mrs. Hugh Love, of Kiama, and Mrs.. A. Moffitt of Binna Burra, all of whom were with her at the last; and five sons in Messrs. Thomas Weir, of “Bush Bank,” J. Weir, of “Boronia”; Wm. H. “Weir, of Eltham; Hugh Weir, Bangalow; and David Weir, McLean's Ridges.

Death has brought sorrow this week to the home of Mr D.E. Weir and family, for a loved wife and mother has been taken from it in her 65th year.
The late Mrs Weir was the daughter of fine old pioneers Mr and Mrs David Weir of “Bush Bank” a home noted for the warmth of its hospitality - the true kindliness of those that dwell beneath its roof 'for nothing was a trouble if sickness or trouble called. From such that was hers. Her interests were centred in her home and church and charitable deeds unostentatiously carried through. Even when sickness laid her aside from active work her hands were never idle. fashioning beautiful things a fragrant and inspiring memory behind.
The death of her son George at the war was a great shock to her, and her health was never the same afterward though she had the joy of welcoming home again her eldest son Fred., who also went to do his bit in the great struggle for freedom. Quietly and unwearying. Mrs Weir also did her part in war work. Some weeks ago a seizure gave little hope of ultimate recovery and a trained nurse, relieved the self sacrificing attention previously given by husband and daughters. The sympathy of fellow aldermen church officers, and personal friends, have been with Mr. Weir in the sad and anxious time he has passed through and young and old have sympathised with the Misses Weir, who on many occasions have lightened the burden for others when sickness came to a home, for the qualities of a splendid mother passed on to them.
After a short service in the house, the coffin was taken to the church, where Rev H G. Chivers rector of Concord West and late of Kiama, assisted the Rev .J W. Watkinson in the service A crowded church and large funeral was an evidence of the respect in which the late Mrs. Weir and her family were held.

Harriett Weller, or Ellis, 11 years of age, in custody, was charged with stealing the Missionary box, containing £2 or £3, from the Church of England Sunday school. A. considerable amount of evidence was taken, from which it appeared that the box was left in a press in the school ; that the key was left in the door from Saturday morning till Sunday morning, and the girl, finding the door thus accessible, went in and took the box, and having broken it open with a stone, hid it under the play-shed at the Public school, where it was found with about 16s in coppers still left in it, the police traced where she had spent 10s or 11s, but she declined to point out where the balance (more than she had spent) was hid. It also transpired that she was the adopted child of John Weller, who said he had received her when 24 days old from a woman calling herself Mrs. Ellis, and that she had take the habit of sleeping out of doors. She had been live nights away during the last three weeks. Ordered to be sent to the Shaftesbury Reformatory for 4 years.

Death has brought sorrow this week to the home of Mr D.E. Weir and family, for a loved wife and mother has been taken from it in her 65th year. The late Mrs Weir was the daughter of fine old pioneers Mr and Mrs David Weir of “Bush Bank” a home noted for the warmth of its hospitality - the true kindliness of those that dwell beneath its roof 'for nothing was a trouble if sickness or trouble called. From such that was hers. Her interests were cen tred in her home and church and charit able deeds unostentatiously carried through. Even when sickness laid her aside from active work her hands were never idle. fashioning beautiful things a fragrant and inspiring memory behind.
The death of her son George at the war was a great shock to her, and her health was never the same afterward though she had the joy of welcoming home again her eldest son Fred., who also went to do his bit in the great struggle for freedoom. Quietly and unwearying. Mrs Weir also did her part in war work. Some weeks ago a seizure gave little hope of ultimate recovery and a trained nurse, relieved the self sacrificing attention previously given by husband and daughters. The sympathy of fellow aldermen church officers, and personal friends, have been with Mr. Weir in the sad and anxious time he has' passed through and young and old have sympathised with the Misses Weir, who on many occasions have lightened the burden for others when sicknes came to a home, for the qualities of a splendid mother passed on to them.
After a short service in the house, the coffin was taken to the church, where Rev H G. Chivers rector of Concord West and late of Kiama, assisted the Rev .J W. Watkinson in the service
A crowded church and large funeral was an evidence of the respect in which the late Mrs. Weir and her family were held.
Telegrams, letters and a host of beautiful floral tributes were seen in sym pathy. Pall-bearers were her sons Messrs, Fred and Harmon Weir, Messrs. Thomas and John Weir (brothers). And Mr. R..H. Weir (brother-in-law). Beside her sorrowing husband there are left to mourn the late Mrs. Weir three daughters, Misses Eva, Alice and Ethel, two sons, Frederick and Harmon (George, Cyril predeceased) sisters Mrs. Hugh Love (Riversdale) and Mrs. Moffit (N.C.) and brothers Messrs. Thomas and John Weir (Kiama), Messrs. Wm. Weir and Hugh Weir (North Coast( and to, them sincere sympathy is widely extended in their bereavement.

A beautiful double-decker cake, made and presented by Mrs. A. Phillips, of Eurimbla-street, held pride of place on the table.
Mr. George Werren was chairman, and after the usual toasts were proposed and honoured he presented his parents with a beautiful blue and gold eiderdown. The guests were also presented with a pair of pillow shams from the Thornton Methodist Sunday School. After supper the tables were cleared and dancing, singing and parlour games were indulged in to music supplied by Mr. G. Werren, jun. At midnight the singing of 'Auld Lang Syne' brought to a close a very pleasant evening.
Mr. Theophilus Werren was born at Cornwall on March 17, 1860, and when he was 25 years of age came to Australia to live. Mrs. Werren, who before her marriage was Miss Emily Floyd, was born at Black Hill on October 13, 1865. The Maitland Daily Mercury (NSW : 1894 - 1939) Saturday 9 July 1938 p 2

With the death of Mrs. Annie Wardle Weston, which occurred at her home, “Kenilworth,” O'Connell-street, Parramatta, on Tuesday, this district loses another of its very old residents.
After her marriage to the late Mr. Francis J. Weston in 1866, she went to reside on the latter's estate, “Horsley,” Prospect, and remained there until 1904, when she removed to “Kenilworth. She had lived in Parramatta continuously for 29 years.
Mrs. Weston, who was in her 94th year, was a daughter of the late Captain Charles Throsby Smith, of Wollongong, and it was while he and his wife were on a pleasure cruise among the islands that she was born at Manila. The captain of the vessel on which her parents were touring was named Wardle and deceased was named after his wife, Mrs. Annie Wardle. The arrival of Captain Smith's little daughter was quite an event at Manila and the Chinese residents bestowed many gifts upon the little one. Some of the dresses which were presented have been preserved down through the years by Mrs. Weston.
Mr. Weston's father was one of the most prominent men in the Illawarra district, and it is interesting to note that every church in Wollongong was built on land given by him for the purpose.
Her late husband, who died in 1902, was one of the best known of this district's residents. He was a grandson of the late Colonel Johnston, of Annandale, famous in the early public affairs of New South Wales.
Mrs. Weston was educated at Kiama and she used to relate how, when returning to school from holidays, it was necessary for boatmen to row her out to the steamer, as there was no wharfage accommodation for such vessels at Wollongong.
Throughout her life, deceased was a warm supporter of the Church of England. She was a Sundary school teacher at Wollongong, and upon taking up residence at “Horsley' she rendered splendid service for St. Bartholomew's, Prospect. For many years she was a regular worshipper at St. John's, Parramatta, but in recent years ill-health prevented her attendance.
Mrs. Weston in earlier years was a most energetic worker on behalf of Parramatta District Hospital.
She was most charitable and hospitable, and was always to the fore in any worthy cause. Her refined and sympathetic nature gained for her the esteem of a very large circle of friends in the Parramatta district. She leaves no family.
The funeral is arranged to take place this afternoon, and prior to the cortege leaving for Prospect Cemetery, a service will be held at St. John's at 2 o'clock. Cumberland Argus (Parramatta, Sydney), 7 September 1933, p 4

Death of Mrs. Weston
Mrs Blanche Weston, who was said to, be the oldest living native, died at Horsley, near Prospect, on Monday. She had taken ill on the Thursday previous, after eating some food which disagreed with her, and from the effects of which she never recovered, not withstanding the immediate and unremitting attention fo her medical attendant, Dr. Waugh. Her death took place at 5 o'clock on Monday morning.
Mrs Weston celebrated her 98th birthday on July 23, when there were four generations represented. She was born at Annandale in 1806. Her father, Captain Johnston, was the leader of the conspiracy against Governor Bligh, who was arrested by his direction at Government House, Parramatta, and “shipped back” to England. She married the late Captain Weston, and had resided at Horsley for the last 75 years.
Mrs Weston was a charitable woman, and rendered considerable assistance to the poor people in the district in which she lived. The funeral took place on Wednesday afternoon, deceased's remains being interred in the burial ground of Prospect Anglican Church, in the family vault, beside those of her late husband, and sons, and the other members of her family buried there.

THE LATE MRS JOSEPH WESTON.
The death occurred at Kiama on Monday last of Mrs Weston, wife of Mr Joseph Weston, proprietor of the Kiama Independent and sister of Mr John Maclean of Nowra. The deceased lady who was 56 years of age, had been ailing for several weeks. She will be greatly missed from the Kiama district, in, which she was for many years a foremost worker for all deserving causes, and a good supporter especially of charitable undertakings.
It was a painful shock to intimate friends in this district, when the sad intelligence arrived here late on Monday evening that Mrs Joseph Weston had passed away, that morning. Although not so generally well known here as in the Kiama district, there are some who had a life long acquaintance, and intimate friendship with her, and her memory will ever remain green with those who knew her best and liked her most. Highly intelligent, vivacious and fluent of speech, she was always welcome at social gatherings and in her own home she was a most entertaining hostess. Her hospitality and generosity was unbounded… She was a. native of Banavie, Argyleshire, Scotland, and a sister of Mr John Maclean of Nowra, and a daughter of the late Mr D. Maclean, well known and highly respected in Gerringong and Kiama. The deceased lady arrived with her parents in Gerringong in the year 1857, where she remained mostly, until she married Mr Joseph Weston over thirty years ago… The Ulladulla and Milton Times (NSW : 1891 - 1917) Saturday 14 February 1903 p 1

During that time she was noted for her quiet disposition and kindly manner, and was well-known for her many acts of kindness. She will be greatly missed by many friends for her sterling character and happy fund of reminiscence of early Lithgow. . She was particularly devoted to her home and family.

Samuel was a farmer at Jamberoo when Sophia Mary became ill.
To make a better life for his family, Samuel sold the farm and joined the N.S.W. Police Force in Sydney. After a short while his wife and three of their children became ill with fever and were admitted to the Sydney Infirmary. In an attempt to limit the disease, Samuel shifted to a new residence in Sydney with his three other children. Shortly after he contracted typhoid and died aged 33. Samuel was buried in the family plot at Kiama and his three sick children all died. One was presumably buried in Sydney and the other two were buried with their father at Kiama. Five months after Samuel’s death, his wife had a seventh child.

On Wednesday last there started from this neighbourhood a cavalcade in attendance upon the hearse which carried, for interment in the Porter's Garden Cemetry, the remains of a member of a family still numerous in Kiama and its neighbourhood. The person I speak of was Mr. Samuel King, who left Jamberoo in September last, and whose subsequent history with that of his family is extremely melancholy. He found it necessary on account of his wife's ill health to give up the farm he lived on in this neighbourhood, and obtained a situation in the police. I believe Mr. King made a very efficient officer; but the conditions of life in Sydney do not seem to have agreed with the family, and their residence was fixed in the first instance in a part of the town not remarkable for salubrity. Mrs. King and some of the children, who were in all seven in number, I believe, fell sick with some of the febrile disorders common in large towns, and were removed to the Infirmary. Mr. King found it necessary to take a house in a more healthy neighbourhood, to which he removed with the remaining part of the family and continued his duties, till he was himself prostrated by typhoid fever or some kindred disorder, and likewise removed to the Infirmary, the three young children, as I understand, keeping house by themselves, going to school at the stated hours, and doing whatever else was necessary on their own account. Mr. King who in addition to the access of fever was constitutionally liable to pulmonary weakness, succumbed to the attack, on the 27th ultimo. His oldest brother, Mr. Alderman King, of Jamberoo, who seems at least to come in for an elder brother's share of the troubles and anxieties of the family, received a telegram to the effect that if he wished to see his brother alive, it was necessary to repair to Sydney at once. He did so accordingly, intending to comply with the general wish of the family in case of death, and send the remains to Kiama for burial. The patient died, I understand, without recognising. though not without seeing his brother: and as this happened during the stormy weather, while it was impossible for a steamer to get into the Kiama basin, a telegram was despatched to Sydney requesting that Mr. M. King would have the body forwarded via Moss Vale. This he did at great personal inconvenience under the circumstances; and some other members of the family, viz., John, William, Dixon, and Isaac, betook themselves to that station to assist in the conveyance of the coffin to Jamberoo, where after experiencing much dilliculty and discomfort from the tempestuous state of the weather they arrived on Tuesday last, the coffin being deposited at the house of the energetic and much enduring elder brother. From thence, still in the pouring rain, it was conveyed on the following day in Mr. Walker's hearse to the Cemetery, attended by a number of sympathising neighbours which was augmented from time to time on the road to Kiama, as well as after reaching the town. The deceased was about thirty-three years of age ; and of his family and connexions it is, of course, unnecessary to say anything. …. The widow who with one child, is still in the Infirmary, is, I hear, recovering slowly, the children thus left fatherless, and whose mother might almost be said to be a con firmed invalid are seven in number, and six of them boys, much sympathy is naturally felt for the bereaved family.

THE LATE MRS WHEATLEY,
An old and very highly esteemed resident of the Shoalhaven district in the person of Mrs H. Wheatley, sen., died on Thursday morning last, after a protracted illness, at her residence, Worrigee- street, Nowra, The deceased lady had been a resident of the district for nearly 60 years, and had during that long period deservedly won the respect and regard of a very large section of the community, and particularly so of the older hands, amongst whom she was best known.
She was a woman of benevolent disposition and of deep religious conviction and piety, and had trained her children in the fear and admonition of the Lord. She was in deed a 'mother in Israel,' and her family have every reason to call her blessed.
Deceased had been in feeble health for some time, and for the last seven months had been confined to her room, and practically to bed. She bore her illness with great cheerfulness and Christian fortitude, and her “end was peace.” The mortal remains were interred in the C.E. portion of the general cemetery on Friday, the Rev. W. Newby Fraser officiating at the grave. Despite the threatening rain and the fact that little opportunity was given for the interment arrangements to be made known, the funeral cortege was a lengthy one, testifying to the general esteem in which the deceased was held.
The late Mrs Wheatley was born in Lincolnshire, England, in June, 1833, so that she was bordering on 'three score years and ten—the allotted span of life.' She arrived in the Shoalhaven district in the year 1849, her family taking up their residence at Terrara. She was the eldest daughter of the late Mr Thomas Booth, one of her brothers being Mr John Booth, who for many years successfully carried on a commission agency in Sussex- street, Sydney.
In 1850 the subject of this notice, Miss Priscilla Booth, was married to Mr Henry Wheatley, who for many years carried on agricultural and farming pursuits with a fair measure of success. There was issue of the marriage nine children — three sons and six daughters— all still living, five in this district and four in different parts of the Commonwealth, but all in comfortable circumstances. The late Mr Wheatley died in 1896, and since then his widow had lived privately, passing away as stated on Thursday morning last.

MRS. NOAH WHITE.
When the news of Mrs. Noah White's death came on Sunday last the community was again deeply shocked and grieved, for in the handsome and apparently well appearance of Mrs. White few who had seen her lately thought of so tragic and untimely an ending to a life just at its zenith. Internal trouble of a serious nature manifested itself, and Mr. White was advised by his wife's medical attendant of the necessity of a serious operation to get the skill of the best specialist procurable, as the case gave very little hope of recovery. The only chance was taken up in the hope that a life so dear to her husband and sons would be spared. It was not to be, and the issue was unsuccessful, Mrs. White passing away at a Sydney hospital on Saturday night last.
Deepest sympathy is felt for Mr. White in his terrible bereavement, and the time of dread apprehension and anxiety undergone in the thought of a sudden separation to husband and wife where such devotion existed. The funeral took place on Monday in Sydney. Mrs. White was a native of England, but for over 20 years has lived with her husband in Kiama, where they have been greatly Respected and esteemed by all. A devoted friend and kind and tireless helper in sickness or trouble many found her, and in any function for the hospital or progressive or charitable objects in the town Mrs. White was an energetic and much to be desired worker, for she did so cheerfully and so thoroughly what she undertook to do. Of a high principle and truly Christian character her influence was always on the side of that which was good, and it gave her a very great pleasure to do a kindness, Her home was her kingdom and her greatest interest there, and by her husband and sons she was idolised.
For them deepest sympathy is expressed on every side, more especially for the husband, bereft of such a helpmate and companion, and his life and home left desolate. The Kiama Independent, and Shoalhaven Advertiser (NSW : 1863 - 1947) Wednesday 25 October 1911 p 2

HORRIBLE MURDER AT JAMBEROO. A murder of the foulest and most heartless character has been committed at Jamberoo, in the Coast districts, on the body of an infant only ten weeks old. The following are the particulars, taken at the coroner's inquest, as reported in the Kiama Examiner. Ann White, of Minnamurra, stated: I am the wife of Peter White, and mother of the deceased child. On this day (Monday) about 11 o'clock a.m., I was lying in bed in my house, unwell. I missed Ellen Flynn, my sister, who was living in the house with me, and the baby, now dead, from the house. I went round the house, to try if I could see them, and I heard a scream which I knew to be that of my baby. I went up to Ellen Flynn. She had a reaping-hook in her hand, and parts of the child, I don't know whether the legs or hands. She came towards me with the hook in one hand and the baby's clothes in the other. She said, ” I am a butcher; for once,” and went into the house. I went and picked up the body of the child in six pieces-the body, head, two, legs, and two arms. I rolled them all up in a shirt and laid them in my bed, and then dressed myself, and went in search of my husband and two of the children who were out; and I took another child with me. I met the two children, and took all three with me, and went to look for someone to send for the father. Ellen Flynn followed me, and took one of the children from me by force. I came to William Windley's and brought the two living children and the dead child with me, and asked Windley to go and get the child Ellen took from me. He could not go, but sent three of the Johnston’s, and they brought the child to me. I saw part of the child in my sister's arms, and the hook in her hand cutting up the child. I said, ” Where is my. child ?”'. She said ' It's away.“ The child was not more than ten or fifteen minutes out of my sight before it was killed. It was quite hot. The deceased is the child Ellen Flynn took out of my arms. She always had a dislike to the child. On the day of the christening Ellen told the priest who christened it that if he had anything to do with it she would have his (the priest's) grave made before Christmas' day. William Windley stated: I am living at Minnamurra. On this day (Monday) I was at work, I heard Mrs. White's baby was killed. I went up to my house and saw Mrs.. White's, child lying on the sofa; the head, hands, and feet, appeared to have been lately cut from the body. Mrs White asked me to go to her place about a quarter of a mile, to bring up her other child. I did not go, but I got three of Mr. Johnson's sons to go and they brought it up. I went after a while to 'report' to the constable. I met him on the road coming, and told him. Constable Goddard and I, on our way to White's met Peter White and Ellen Flynn, and we all went back to White's house. We searched and found what we believed to be the place where the child was killed at the back of the house. We found a broken basin and on the roof of the house a reaping-hook. We then returned to my place. I saw Goddard take a bundle from Ellen Flynn containing some books and the leg of a child she seemed very unwilling to give up the bundle. To a Juror : It is my impression from what I have heard, that Ellen Flynn is out of' 'her 'mind. James Johnson stated: I live at Minnamurra with. my father. This morning about 11 o'clock, I was making a fire with my two brothers, Mr Windley came and told us of the murder, and asked us to go and take another child from Ellen Flynn, as he was afraid she would kill it. We went immediately, and when we got to the. house the door was open, and no person was inside. On coming out, of the house, we met Flynn with the child ,on her back, and one of my brothers asked her to give it to him. She refused and told us to mind our own business.- She took the child into the house; and left it on the sofa, and then went and put some water in a basin, and went into the room. I then took the child out of the window, and came away: Constable John Goddard stated:–About half-past ten o'clock this morning, from information I received. I started for White's place. I met Windley on the road, and went with him to his house, and examined the body of a child, I found the legs and arms cut off, and a bruise on the left temple. Mrs. White told me the particulars, and I then went towards where the murder was committed. I met Peter White and the prisoner, and I took her, on suspicion of the murder. I demanded a bundle she had, but she refused to give it up, and I took it from her. On opening it, I found some books, and the left leg of a child, wrapped up in some old rags. I asked her if she murdered the child. She said, “So you say.” I then went on to White's and searched. About twenty yards from the back of the house, on a rock near a tree, there was a good deal of broken delf with blood on the edges, and three small pieces of grisly bone sticking on it. I then searched for an instrument that the crime could have been committed with. Prisoner said, if I would give her her book she would tell me, and she pointed to a reaping hook on the top of the house. On examining this, I found a few small brains sticking in the teeth. Since then, she has acknowledged to killing the baby, and said she did it by the help of God. The medical evidence was then received and the jury brought in a verdict of wilful murder against Ellen Flynn. and was then committed to take her trial for murder at the Gaol Delivery of the Supreme Court, to be held on the 1st February. She does not in any way attempt to deny the crime, which she says she was told to perpetrate of the Virgin Mary, and was obliged to do in obedience to that command; and she believes that it was for the best. There can be little doubt that her mind is affected, although in conversation on indifferent subjects her quiet manner and clear, answers would not lead to that conclusion. In appearance she is a tidy smart-looking, woman, rather large, with good features, and not at all a bad expression: her age we should 'suppose to be about one or two and twenty. The organ of destructiveness appears to be largely developed, and without much counterbalancing influence, in her family, for we recollect that her sister, the mother of the ,poor little murdered, child, some few months back committed an aggravated assault upon a neighbouring woman by dipping her head in a pot of boiling soap-suds hanging on the fire, by which she lost the sight of an eye, and had her face dreadfully scalded.
