DEATH OF MRS. CHARLES FROST. Only a few weeks back we regretted to hear of the rather severe illness of Mrs. Charles Frost, at Parramatta. On Saturday the sad intelligence reached Mudgee announcing the death, which occurred at her daughter's (Mrs. T. Williams). The deceased was the second daughter of Mrs. Jas. Pateman, of Church-street, Mudgee. Universal sympathy is extended to the relatives in their sad affliction. The body was interred at Parramatta today. Mudgee Guardian, Monday 12 August 1912, p. 3.

A LARGE FAMILY. Mrs. Caroline Augusta Frost, mother of a number of young people known very well in social circles in Parramatta, passed away on Saturday at the age of 47 years. Mrs. Frost was a native of Mudgee, where she was married. She was the daughter of Mr. James Pateman, a business man of that old country town. An interesting fact in these days, more particularly when so much is heard as to the slow growth in number of the best immigrants' a young country can have, was the fact that Mrs. Frost was the mother of fifteen children, ten of whom are still living (four sons and six daughters).

Death of an Old Resident MRS. CAROLINE ELIZABETH PATEMAN. The death occurred at the residence of her son-in-law, Mr. James Dykes, Gladstone-street, Mudgee, yesterday afternoon, of Mrs. Caroline Elizabeth Pateman, relict of the late Mr. James Pateman, aged 80 years. The deceased lady was very highly respected and esteemed, and during her long residence in the Mudgee district had made a host of friends. She had a disposition and was very charitable, and was always ready to lend a helping hand to anyone. The cause of death was general break-up, the deceased having been ailing for about 11 months. The late Mrs Pateman was a native of Smithfield (near Parramatta) and came to Mudgee with her husband and two young children 59 years ago, when they went to Pipe-clay and opened up a bakery business there. At this time the great gold rush was on at Pipeclay. After remaining at Pipeclay for a few years they came to Mudgee, and took up their residence at a site where Messrs. Jas. Loneragan (Mudgee) Co.'s wool and skin establishment, in Mortimer Street now stands. After remaining in these premises for some time, they removed to Market Street and opened up business at a shop where Mr. W. Sheath at present resides. After remaining in the shop for 11 years they removed to Sydney for about two years and then to Smithfield (Mrs. Pateman's native town) and opened a bakery business there and remained there for about two years after which they returned to Mudgee again and opened up a bakery business opposite Mr. W. Bowen's present fruit shop. After remaining in these premises for three years they removed to premises on the corner of Church and Mortimer streets, where Mr. A. Douglas at present conducts a business, and after carrying on business for the lengthy term of 18 years they removed to the premises where , the well-known "Pateman's Bakery" business is at present conducted, under the management of deceased's daughter, Mrs. W. Gordon. The late Mr. James Pateman pre-deceased his wife by about 13 years. The deceased leaves five daughters and three sons, namely : - Mrs. Quarter (Parramatta). Mrs. Rossiter (Wellington. N.Z.) Mrs. McDarra (Sydney), Mrs. W. Gordon (Mudgee), Mrs. Jas. Dykes (Mudgee), John (Mudgee), James (Mudgee) and Sidney (Paddington). Besides the above children the deceased leaves 37 grandchildren and a great number of great-grandchildren. The funeral took place this afternoon, the remains being interred in the Church of England portion of the general cemetery. The Rev. Canon W J. Dunstan officiated at the graveside. Mr. H. Barton had charge of the mortuary arrangements (Mudgee Guardian and North-Western Representative, Thursday 24 October 1918, page 16).
