Death

General regret was expressed in Mudgee and district on Sunday when it became known that Mrs. Merlene Beatrice Croan, wife of Mr. Swift Croan, had passed away in the local hospital. Deceased, who was a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. G. Mills, spent practically all her 46 years in this town, and was beloved by all who had the privilege of her acquaintance. Although she had not enjoyed the best of health for some time, she maintained a cheerful, happy spirit through it all, and never lost interest in the welfare of her family, to whom her passing came as a terrible shock. In addition to a sorrowing husband she is survived by three sons, viz.: Maxwell, Gregory and Rodney. To the bereaved family and other relatives the sincere sympathy of the whole countryside is extended. The funeral, which was well attended, took place to the Church of England portion of the Mudgee cemetery this afternoon, Rev. Canon Powell performing the last 3ad rites. The arrangements were in the hands of Messrs. Eastaugh and Carroll.
