"It is with sorrow that we have to report the death (under painful circumstances) of the little son of Mr and Mrs Cyrus Chaseling, of Australian Farm. Leets Vale. He was a bright little fellow, four years and nine months old, and died on the way to Windsor from the result of scalds, accidentally received at on Friday last. Mr Chaseling set out in his motor launch on Saturday morning to bring the child to Windsor for medical treatment, but the little sufferer died when they reached Sackville. The father returned home, and the remains were laid to rest in the private cemetery on Australian Farm on Saturday afternoon. Rev. B. Hobson, Methodist, conducted the service, and Mr. David Books carried out the duties of undertaker. Reported from WISEMANS FERRY for the Windsor & Richmond Gazette 9 July 1915 |
