Death of Mr. George White.

A telegram on Wednesday, conveyed the sad news to Mr. White of the death of his eldest son George at Rylstone. He has suffered terribly for some years now from consumption of the throat which compelled him to resign a good appointment in the civil service. Since then, he has been gradually becoming worse, and suffered so much that, hard as it may seem, his death must have been a merciful release from pain. He was married some years since to Miss Hardwick, of Rylstone, who is now left a widow with three children. Some weeks since, the case looked so serious that his parents went down from here, but he rallied again, and Mr. White came home, leaving Mrs. White with her son, and she is there now. Deceased's brother, Mr. Wal White was also there, having gone up from Sydney when the end was near. Mrs. Wal White is invalided in Sydney, and is likely to be under the doctors for some time, so that the family's cup of troubles seems to be very full now, and public sympathy goes out specially to Mr. and Mrs. White upon whom such heavy burdens are laid in their declining years.

McMaster elected president, Mr. Jethro White vice-president, Mr. Parker treasurer, Mr. Maysteers secretary, Dr. Failes medical officer, and as a committee Messrs. Allison, Henderson, Allen, McHugh, T. Rogers, A. Maguire, J. Maguire, Commins, Broome, A. and T. Deans, Barnett, J . C. McDonald, C. Murchison, and G. McEwen. The reports showed a flourishing condition of the finances, a record number of cases, and a smaller proportion of deaths, and less expense per head.

Death of Mr. Jethro White

The news of the death of Mr. Jethro White, one of the oldest and most respected residents of Coonabarabran, will cause a general feeling of sorrow over a large area; for Mr White is well known not only locally, but in many other districts for his hospitality and general kindness of disposition. Mr. White had not been well for some time, but the complaint took an acute and serious form about 6th or 7th March, when he took to his bed under an acute attack of dysentery, and though at times he appeared to improve, he continued to grow weaker, and on Sunday all hope was abandoned, and he passed away at 20 minutes to 3 on Monday morning. When Mr. White was young, he was, like many of our young men, attracted from England to South Africa and went there, a boy of 14, and saw a good deal of active service in the Kaffir war. Afterwards, he came to N. S. Wales and had a varied experience in pastoral matters and was on the Snowy River rush (now Kiandra) in stirring times of '59 and the early sixties. He was the first storekeeper at Coonabarabran managing the business here for his brother-in-law Mr. P. A. Wilmott of Coonamble, but he afterwards bought the business, and carried it on himself till about three years ago, when business was not prospering, and he gave it up, and devoted himself to the farm which he had reclaimed from the wilderness when he first came here, and he worked at it till his sickness came on a few weeks since. He always had a love for farming and often said that farming and not storekeeping was his vocation; which was probably true for he was too good natured to grind the faces of the poor, which is one of the conditions of success in business. Mr. White had reached the allotted span being 72 years of age. He leaves a widow two sons, (both married), and three daughters one of whom is Mrs. W. Parkins of the firm of Starr and Parkins. His two eldest sons Arthur and George died before him.
