| 553 | Down in Perth on a business and pleasure spell after the strenuous wool season shearing, pressing, baling and carting Bill Cream, of Clifton Downs. Bill is famous throughout the whole of the Murchison, Gascoyne, Pilbara, all the Kimberley's and the far Wyndham and Darwin as a quaint sayer of Quaint sayings. He is extremely deaf, but can read the lip language as an expert scholar reads print, and hundreds are the yarns, true and untrue, that are circulated in and around shearing sheds, stockmen's camps, pearling, cattle and other towns concerning the doings of' Bill Cream. As an astute manager he stands alone, and there is no make of sheep yard, sheep dip, stables, barns, pumps, windmills, dams, wells, motor cars and motor wagons, shearing sheds and wool presses unknown to Bill Cream. As the only JP in a huge district, he is a conspicuous success, none of his decisions having ever been referred to the Crown law Department. They tell a story (and he agrees with it) that having fined a couple of contractors for getting considerably over the odds, he paid the fines himself and remarked to the penitent pair that they had better wait until after the rest of the cases and fix that contract up. They didn't know of any contract, and said, so, but Bill Cream, JP, pointed out the fact that he needed a lot of fencing done, and they could start in when they were sober and get the work going ahead. They signed. | Cream, William (Bill) (I8)

| 555 | Edward Timothy Hooley was born on Oct. 3, 1812, on the high seas, his parents being at the time bound for Tasmania, where his father afterwards became overseer of a sheep station. Mr. Hooley was a member of parties that made several exploration trips into the interior of the NW of Western Australia and it was eventually decided that the expedition should settle in the country around Nickol Bay and the Fortescue and Ashburton Rivers. On the 16 April 1866 Edward left Perth for Champion Bay with Lockier Clere Burges (junior). They reached Champion Bay on the 3rd of May. Edward and Dr Bompass left Champion Bay on the 27th May 1866 with 1025 sheep (hooley) and 920 sheep (burges) making a total of 1945 | Hooley, Edward Timothy (I1)

| 558 | Ex-Italian POW To Marry Widow Of His Sponsor When attractive Trayning widow, Mrs. Doris Chawner (36), marries Aldo Remoto (34) of Venice, on October 9, at Christ Church, Claremont, their wedding will be unique. Mr. Remoto was an Italian POW, employed on the late Mr. Chawner's farm at Trayning. During their association, a strong friendship grew between the men. At the end of the war, Remoto was repatriated to Italy, but his employer promised to nominate him as a migrant, should he wish to return to Australia. For 2 years, Mr. Remoto had to remain on his father's farm near Venice. Then the opportunity came to migrate here. He returned February 9, last year, but before he landed, his friend and sponsor had died during an attack of influenza. Mr. Remoto went to the farm and assisted Mrs. Chawner to manage the property, but six months later, was stricken down by rheumatic fever. During the next 6 months he was confined to the house and nursed back to health by Mrs. Chawner. After his recovery, Mr. Remoto left Trayning. He has since been employed in Perth and Kalgoorlie. Mrs. Chawner has 3 children. The 2 boys,aged ll and 9, attend Christ Church Grammar School, and her 6-y-o daughter is at home. The children are thrilled. That means a lot to me." said Mrs. Chawner. I have learned to speak and write Italian and I have taught Mr. Remoto English. At Trayning, Mrs. Chawner is noted for her artistic accomplishments. She is a talented painter, amateur actress and gardener. One of the greatest interests she and her fiance have in common is their love of gardening and opera, Mrs Chawner . Mrs. Doris Chawner, who marries a former Italian POW at Christ Church, Claremont, on October 9. Rev A. J. Dobson, of Christ Church, a former rector of Trayning, and a friend of her late husband, will celebrate the marriage. Mrs. Chawner (whose late brother was a Pathfinder pilot) and her late husband befriended many POW. | Family: Aldo Remoto / Doris Worth (F46)

| 572 | FUNERAL OF THE LATE SERGEANT RICHARD TROY. The remains of the late Sergeant Troy, who was accidentally shot at East Kimberley on the 16th of June last, while rushing a native camp, were interred in the Roman Catholic Cemetery in this town on Sunday afternoon last. The funeral left Mr. R. Troy's (father of deceased) residence at about 3 p.m., and there must have been fully one hundred persons present, the procession being arranged in the following order : — The hearse. Chief mourners. 6 police in uniform. General public. The mourners consisted of the parents, sisters, and brothers of deceased, while the police constables were under the command of Sergeant. McKenna, of Newcastle. The pall-bearers were Messrs. R. Gallop, Thos. Kindelan, J. Tomney, and W. Doran. After leaving the residence of deceased's parents the procession wended its way to the chapel where prayers were offered up for the dead. Leaving the sacred edifice the- cemetery was soon reached and the coffin was placed in the grave. After the usual, solemn burial rites had been performed, the Rev. Father Duff, who conducted the ceremony throughout, addressed the assemblage as follows : — My dear people : — I come here to-day as a friend to attend the funeral of the late Sergeant Troy, but by the kind per mission of your pastor I am privileged with the sad office of performing the burial rites. Sortie months have now elapsed since I said a few words about the. exemplary life that the deceased officer led. Then his body was buried far away from York, in the wilds of Kimberley : but in accordance with the wishes of his parents and relatives it has been brought hither tor interment today. It would be sad indeed to think that the remains of so good a Christian should be left uncared for in a spot where death stripped of every sign of hope all but seemed eternal. Holy Church never grows weary of looking after the soul of man ; and when it has fled she wishes to deposit the body in sacred earth. She does so in the hope that it will have a joyful resurrection on the last day. Hence the solemn benediction with which she consecrates her cemeteries, and the beautiful inscription graven on the stone that covers the ashes of the departed one : — " Here lies a faithful servant who fell asleep in the Lord in the hope of awaking on the last day." Thus does religion deprive the tomb of all its terrors by teaching man to submit quietly and patiently to the stroke of death for a moment in order that by a miracle no less wonderful than creation itself he may rise to new life more glorious than the first. It is therefore a source of joy to the Church at York today to have the body of one who grew up under her own roof, and who received the bread of the life at her hands, interred in this little cemetery — a cemetery furnished with all those appurtenances of religion which promise, nay, insure a joyful resurrection. The deceased was known to many, perhaps I might say to everyone of you yet it is permissible to us upon this occasion to look back upon his past life in order that have may do honour to his remains. Last April I made his acquaintance at Wyndham — an acquaintance to which I shall always look back to with pleasure. His disinterested application to the duties of his position and his child-like simplicity of manner made him a favourite . with every body. In proof of this it is sufficient for me to mention that the name and memory of Richard Troy still lives fresh in the minds of the inhabitants of the Murchison and Greenough .districts where he was stationed for many years. Ah, how different was his journey the other day as he passed by those places from what it was in former times. Along the same coast by which he often repaired to the scene of his labours he was carried back a lifeless corpse. Many a long and weary day did he labour on those shores in the cause of humanity and the services of his country. However all his toils are over now. Never again will lie look for the protecting shade from the scorching rays of the sun where he might partake of his midday repast nor seek at night no better resting place than the bank of some creek where he might the more conveniently prepare his humble meal. Never again will his brave heart be agitated with anxious cares. Here he will calmly and quietly sleep until the resurrection morn. Then may his body after leaving all that is material behind in the grave come forth regenerated, impassable, more pure and more brilliant than the stars, to become a sharer in the happiness and immortality of the soul. — E . D. Chronicle. | Troy, Richard (I173)

| 576 | General regret is expressed at the death of Mr. W. Fitzpatrick, the well known drover. Mr. Fitzpatrick died very suddenly a few weeks ago from a disease known as berri berri. After following the droving track for so many years, it seems tragic for him to end his days actually on the track. The greatest sympathy is felt for his brother and fellow drover, Mr. J. Fitzpatrick. | Fitzpatrick, William (Bill) (I399)

| 577 | Geraldton Express Wednesday 10 November 1915, page 3 Death of an Old Colonist. On Friday last, at Mullewa, the death of an old resident of the district and an early colonist in the person of Mr. Isaac Barns Wheelock, occured suddenly and under sad circumstances, at the age of 75 years. Deceased had been camping with his son James at Cauna, on the Wongan Hills line, and on Friday morning whilst his son was after the horses the father prepared a breakfast consisting of fried onions and Potatoes. On the son return, both partook of the meal the father remarking that the onion had a bitter taste. A little later he complained of feeling ill and was seized with vomiting. The son also commenced to develop similar symptoms whilst a dog, who had eaten the remains of the break fast displayed signs of poisoning. Mr. Wheelock. sen expressed an opinion that he had been poisoned as his legs were stiffening. His son administered an emetic which how ever had no effect and the old gentleman passed away shortly afterwards. His son hastened to the nearest siding and caught the Perth train to Mullewa where he reported the occurence to PC McArthur who accompanied by PC Jacobs drove out to the camp. Their investigations showed that Mr Wheelock had died without a struggle. They took possession of the cooking utensils and a rusty old tin containing fat which it is assumed had in some way become contaminated with a corrosive poison, as it is thought that at some time it may have been used for holding poison. A packet of ant exterminator was found amongst deceased's belongings. The facts of the case were reported to the acting Coroner who decided that in the absence of any suspicious circumstances an inquest was unecessary. The body was removed to Mullewa, where the burial took place on Saturday. | Wheelock, Isacc Barns (I63)

| 578 | Geraldton Mystery Solved Dead Man Identified. According to a report which reached police headquarters yesterday the dead body which was found in Kane's paddock, Rudd's Gully about five miles from Geraldton over a month ago has been identified as that of Frederick William Leverman (62), of Greenough. When the remains were found by Alfred Joseph Cream on January 22, identification was difficult owing to the decomposed state of the body and it was thought that they were those of an aboriginal. Subsequently however. Thomas Louis Leverman identified the body as that of his father. An inquest was held in Geraldton on February 21 and in the absence of definite medical testimony, the Coroner Mr. G Leater found that death was due to exposure, and occurred about last October. | Cream, Alfred Joseph (I56)

| 582 | Great Drovers. Dear "Non-com,'-Following the droving series with much interest, I was pleased to see mentioned two fine men whom I knew personally. They are the Fitzpatrick brothers, Bill and Jack. Both these men, before and right through the war yèars and after, were at the forefront of the states leading drovers. Squatters were constantly after their services from all parts of the State. I have met hundreds of bushmen following their various occupations, but I have never met two men who so lookedthe part as horsemen as the Fitz brothers. Both stood 6ft. 4m. easily, and they were fine looking men with prominent features and kesh eyes Jack had a white beard and Bill a black one. In 1919 I was jackeroo on Edaggee station, J. Morrell's property south of Carnarvon. Although working for fine people Joe Morrell was one of the pioneers with stock in the Carnarvon district-like most youths of the romantic age of 17, I longed for adventure and incidentally more money than the modest £5 a month, a jackeroo's wages in those days. Hearing that a drover was coming to lift 3,000 mixed sheep off shears for the Mullewa market, I resolved to try to join the outfit. When they arrived witih a jingle of condamines, I breasted the camp fire and asked for a job. Bill Fitz's first question was: "Can you ride?" What an insult to a husky youth three months on a North-west station! In those days I lived for a horse. I stretched things a bit and told him I could ride anything. He briefly said: "You'll need to. Be round at six in the morning with your knot rolled." I arrived on time with my knot and a portmanteau I had brought from down south. This latter caused much amusement among the tough Knights of the Road and I was quickly told to put a label on it and send it south by boat. I then learnt my first lesson that drovers travel very light. My next lesson followed immediately. I was helped on to a lively bay mare and after a fairly brief argument, I picked myself out of the bore drain. More laughter! However, I insisted on getting on again and with the aid of the monkey strap, "stayed put." Fitz strolled up, patted my shoulder and said. "You'll do. Keep a silent tongue and 4 leam." I drew my last station cheque for £5, and hit the road at the tail end of the mob, on my first droving adventure. Passing Yankee Tanks, I asked a member of the outfit, who was going to Carnarvon to post a letter with my cheque in it on to my mother, register it and bring me back the receipt, which he duly did. This bit of work had a sequel, which I will relate later on, and incidentally taught me a lifelong lesson, never to trust a stranger. The stock route was bad that year and our progress slow, but every day held interest, as it was all new to me. I remember being fascinated by the natives spearing mullet in Rocky Pool on the Gascoyne River and being reprimanded for getting back to the camp late. I also remember having lunch and setting fire to my lunch paper right near the camel outfit, which, taking fright bolted. But for my fleetness of foot, climbing up the back of the buckboard and stopping the runaways, by the look of Fitz I would have got more than a reprimand. As Gascoyne Junction, a month out, I received no mail and thought no more of my letter then. About halfway, passing Belang Pool, where the native boys informed me "you nothing catchem bottom" our stock went down with the dreaded "pinkeye" disease and went stone blind. This delayed us and meant much sheperding, but we eventually got under way again. About this time a little lamb wa«born and i's mother died. Taking the orphan I carried it all day in my saddle bag, and caught an old ewe at night. Believe me, I thought that youngster would burst! I carried it for over a week and with the aid of the ewe's milk it thrived amazingly. I chistened it Mulga, and at my call it would leave the mob and come and have a quart pot top full of water four or five times a day. Mulga with half a dozen other sheep, dashed after a small mob of Billabalong station sheep, and as we were pressing forward I was ordered to let him go. But I missed my little pet. Another thing stuck in my memory. A cock turkey got ringed in by the sheep and I crept behind the sheep to within two yards of him, made a dash and caught him. We duly handed him over to the cook, and dined in style that night. One of the "boys," acting "horse tailer," was ordered to get the horses extra early one morning, and he said to Fitz: "By cripes, a fella wantem fire stick to findem track this morning." Fitz's only comment was a well aimed boot, which, had it connected, would have landed the native among the horses without walking. Fitz was a man of few words but quick action. At last, after a little over three months on the road, we reached Mullewa. The sheep arrived in excellent condition, a fine tribute to our boss. The wethers brought 28/6 at the sale next day and that speaks for itself. Fitz tallied out 3,200, so he must have showed a decent profit. The squatter was so pleased that he turned on two gallons of ale, with bread, butter'and cheese to matchto which we duly did justice. Now for the sequel of my registered letter. On collecting my mail, I found my mother had received my registered letter, but no cheque. Realising in a flash my road mate had cashed the cheque and spent it, I immediately sought him out and asked for restitution. He refused it and I wasted no time, but started to take it out of his hide. I knew considerably more about gloves than horses and men in those days. I finished up by giving him a father of a hiding and Fitz sacked him on the spot. This modest victory made me quite a hero in the eyes of the black boys, whom he, my victim, had bullied all the way down. I said goodbye to a fine employer in Fitz and proceeded home to Perth with the biggest wad of money on the hip I had ever earned up to that time. I also carried a lot of very valuable experience. JUMBUCK, Gosnells. P.S.: I have heard since that. poor old Fitz had a heart attack and died under a mulga tree some miles north of Mullewa. Jack, his brother, did most of the cattle droving in those days. -"J.B." | Fitzpatrick, William (Bill) (I399)

| 588 | In 1886 Joe went to work as a 16 year old on George Joseph Gooch's Wandagee Station. The following year he resumed studies at Fremantle Grammar School. Joes first known involvement in droving was in !891 (21) when he and Drover Jones passed through Victoria Plains. He conducted another lift of sheep in 1893 from Wandagee Station. In 1894 he then ventured into mining. After several years mining he entered into a partnership with William Septimus Snook and they took over the lease of Wooramel Station. During November 1907 this partnership was dissolved and 2 more partners were taken on, namely James McCarthy and Thomas Statham. The company was then known as Snook, Waldeck and Co. Wooramel Station was eventually sold in June 1923 to Mr Ernst Anderson Hall. Joe spent 12 plus years droving and his postal address was via Minganew. | Waldeck, Joseph Fredrick (I114)

| 590 | In February Arthur Nlcol of Dalgety and Co. opened negotiations with Charles James, who was then staying at '"Mon Repos" Cottesloe. A droving contract was made, and James arranged to start his plant for Wallal about the middle of April. During March, however, James sent word, that he had developed a physical complaint, and that he would be unable to carry out the work. Neil McColl, another very experienced and reliable drover, then undertook the job. He made all arrangements to get his plant together, and was to leave for the north not later than April 20. Early in that month on medical advice, he had to relinquish the task. As the season came round fresh preparations were made to drove the sheep south. In March, 1929, Neil McColl who had apparently recovered from his ailment agreed to carry out the work. He made the necessary preparations and was to start for Wallal about the middle of April. Fate apparently decided that he was not to do this work, as a recurrence of his complaint necessitated his going into hospital in Perth. Joe Waldeck, was then in the North and he undertook the task of lifting the sheep. He was well on his journey south when the fifth tragic death occurred. Neil McColl died on July 18, 1929. | McColl, Neil (I220)

| 593 | IN MINIATURE Gascoyne Squatter Merton Fitzpatrick and Saddler Billy Flynn went up with Brearley last week. Take us up a good height said Squatter Fitzpatrick I want a full and comprehensive view of Perth. What's that creek underneath us asked Fitz as they rose. The Swan near Burswood answered Billy Flynn. Gosh said Fitz, I thought it was a billabong. Is that a merry-go round he asked as be saw beneath him a strange-looking circular affair with miniature mokes on it. That's Goodwood explained Flynn. You don't mean to tell me that's a lawn tennis court said Fitz as they hovered above King's Park. It very small." No said Flynn, that's the big reservoir. That's the Crawley Baths nearly underneath us now added Billy. It's a hot day, and the water's full of mixed bathers. Swoop down a bit closer," called out Fitz to Brearley through the telephonettte. I want to see if that's the barmaid from the Royal Hotel swinging on the horizontal bar. They swooped but it was merely the said barmaid's, bathers hanging out to dry while she dressed and dried her hair. Good eyesight, Fitz said Billy Flynn. Yes, said Fitz, as they left the river, I'm a cattleman and can tell a mile off anything connected with calves. | Fitzpatrick, Merton (I13)
