MR. HARRY HOLLAND. On Wednesday evening, death released a good man from his sufferings, when Harry Holland passed away at his residence in Douro-street. The deceased was well known all through this district, where he had lived since boyhood, having come here from England with his father, who survives him and lives at Coonamble. Harry Holland was a well-known mail contractor, and some twelve months ago he took the Cudgegong Hotel. Almost immediately very bad health seized him, and for a very long time he was an inpatient of the Mudgee Hospital, suffering most terribly from chronic rheumatism. During the last twelve months the hand of death has taken two other brothers of the deceased, Robert, who lived in Queensland, and George Holland, of Rylstone. Harry Holland leaves a widow and family, with whom we have every sympathy in their great sorrow. Mudgee Guardian, Friday 9 February 1900, p. 13. Henry Holland Obituary
