| 1301 | MRS. EDWARD BAIN. It will be learnt with very deep regret throughout the district that Mrs. Sarah Bain, relict of the late Mr. Edward Bain, "Redbank," North Winton. breathed her last shortly after 8 o'clock yesterday morning. For some time past Mrs. Bain has been suffering from a heart complaint and on Wednesday she had three serious attacks, from which, how ever, she rallied. Late on Wednesday night she was seized with another attack, and from which she never recovered, but died as stated yesterday morning. The news came as a greait shock to those who heard it ; for Mrs Bain, on account of her kindly and generous disposition and un-failing courtesy to all, was one of the most respected residents of this district. For the bereaved family there will be general sympathy. The deceased, who was a daughter of the late Mr. Geo. Withey, was a native of Somersetshire, England, and came out to this colony with her parents when only 7 years of age, in 1847. When 18 years of age she was married at Beechworth to the late Mr. Edward Bain, and she has con-tinued to reside in the Winton district since. She leaves a grown up family, who are all well known and highly respected residents, viz., Messrs. Edward, W. C., Walter, Fredk. A., Hugh and T. C. Bain, Mrs E. H. Bain. Mrs. H. Tomkins, Mrs. R. Roe. and Miss Annie Bain. The remains will be interred in the Be-nalla cometery today, and the cortege will leave Redbank, North Winton punctually at 1 p.m. Benalla Standard (Vic. : 1901 - 1940), Friday 24 December 1909, page 4 | WITHY, Sarah (I5011)

| 1303 | Murder and Suicide. Sydney.–On the 18th April, 1924, GEORGE BROWN (25). murdered George Ritchie (18), on board the H.M.A.S. Brisbane, then lying at Garden-Island, in the harbour of Port Jackson, Sydney, by striking him on the head with a maul and cutting his throat with a razor, and afterwards committed suicide by hanging,- and at an adjourned inquest, held on the 5th instant before the City Coroner, a verdict of murder and suicide was returned. New South Wales Police Gazette and Weekly Record of Crime (Sydney : 1860 - 1930), Wednesday 28 May 1924 (No.22), page 279 CRUISER TRAGEDY Victim Eldest of Family of Six George Ritchie, the victim of the tragedy on 1-I.M.A.S. Brisbane, was 18 years of age; He joined the navy two years ago. He was the oldest of a family, of live hoys and one girl. His mother died two years ago. His father, Mr David Ritchie, lives In Blackwood street, Yarravllle. The (Irst news of the tragedy received by the family was a telegram from Sydney yesterday stating that the lad had been found dead In his blink. Beyond that and newspaper reports the father knew nothing. Deceased was a member of Yarravllle Rainbow Cycle Club, and had numerous friends. He had a boy-and-girl friendship with Miss Grace Chadwick, 118 Francis street, Yarravllle, and the two were photographed together when he was home last Christmas. A pathetic sidelight on the tragedy Is that Miss Chadwick received a letter from the lad yesterday. Two of Ritchie's brothers, together with his father, are employed at Messrs Doherty's bakery, in Yarravllle.

| 1331 | Obituary Harry Everitt Stanistreet (sic) Thousands of farmers in this State will deplore the loss of the great figure of the general secretary of the Farmers' and Settlers' Association, and within two hours of the news reaching Perth a number of telegrams from persons, representing the various branches of the agricultural movement, had been flashed across to his widow. All who have had the pleasure of knowing that gentle and tolerant lady will join this paper in tendering the deepest sympathy at her loss, and that of her four young children. For some time past Mr. Stanistreet had been in failing health, as a result of heart trouble in fact, it has been said that but for his extreme mental vigour and otherwise robust physique, Stanistreet would have died years ago. He was one of those men who do not know defeat, and do not admit exhaustion. Certain it is that on more than one occasion, when a man of less tenacity and courage would have succumbed, Stanistreet refused to surrender himself to the demands of his terrible ailment. There have been others like this—indomitable spirits who have staved off the hand of death until their life's work was accomplished. Stanistreet' s life's work is not accomplished yet, and we fear the road is still long and arduous ; but, at least no one will deny him the credit of being one of the greatest founders of the movement on which we are all engaged, the attainment of justice and prosperity for the workers in W.A.'s most essential industry—agriculture. After Pellatt was so unaccountably stricken down, Stanistreet took up the reins of organising the Association, and his fierce energy and passionate words captured hundreds of adherents to our organisation. At that time he seemed to think and live nothing but the "Association." Other matters did not enter his head. No matter who he was with, no matter what the occasion, it was the Association, and the need of the man on the land, that was ever on his lips. He saw, as few of us could, the immense possibilities before our industry, provided the farmers pulled together and secured for themselves the right treatment and conditions that a wise public opinion and statesmanlike government alone could give. He never wearied in battling in the cause of the man out-back, and the fact that he was the paid agent of the Association should in no way detract front the high estimation in which he was held by our people. That he was attacked frequently in sections of the press merely signifys that in him was a man who considered the interests of the farmer first, and who did not truckle to other interests. He was a lover of the poems of Browning and Walt Whitman, and those fine lines of the latter, in which he records the death of a soldier of the American Civil War, cannot but recur to one: ''Bold, cautious, true, and my loving comrade"—except, indeed that Harry Stanistreet was not cautious and never spared man or party that he thought was inimical to the farming interest. He was a whole-souled advocate of the return of the people to the life on the laud, but believed that before men— and more particularly women—should go back, some economic changes were necessary to make the life less of a drudgery. He has lived to see part of his work completed, the machinery got in order to snatch justice from the hands of folly. It is for us to regulate and tend the machine. And so, for the moment, we bid our friend fare-well—many of us, perhaps, feeling that it is not for eternity. "Victorian Farmers' Union Conference to-day deplored death Stanistreet. Condoles with widow, family, and Association; a valiant warrior for producers gone. Conference also congratulates Association contesting Swan, and urges don't waver claim to seat on account of "split-vote" cry. Nationalists to blame for failure redeem Bendigo pledge.—J. J.
