| Death of a brother | Malachi Donoghue 1 October 1901 MALACHI DONOGHUE. On Tuesday afternoon Mr. Malachi Donoghue, who resided between Wilbetree and Canadian, answered the summons of the Angel of Death. The deceased who was one of the first selectors in that district was widely esteemed, and is survived by a widow and grown up family. Mr. Donoghue was a ber of Mrs. Duggan, of Budgee. The bereaved relatives have our deepest sympathy. Our Gulgong reporter writes : - "Considerable regret was expressed in town on Tuesday when the news was brought that Mr. Malachi Donoghue, of Old Gulgong, had breathed his last. He took ill about four or five days ago, and not withstanding all attention he sucumbed on Tuesday. The funeral took place on Wednesday, and was largely attended by friends of the deceased, who was one of the most respected residents of this district. The family of the late Mr Donoghue have the sincere sympathy of everyone in their sad and irreparable loss (Mudgee Guardian and North-Western Representative, Thursday 3 October 1901, page 14). |

Michael and John's Cathedral yesterday morning, the contracting parties being Mr. William Corlis, of Bandanora Station, Capertee, and Miss Mary Lawler, sister of the Rev. Father W. Lawler, of Molong. Father Lawler officiated. The bride, who was given away by Mr. M. Veech, of Molong, was attired in a bridal gown of Empire style, a magnificent confection of ivory white satin charmeuse, made over chiffon taffeta, yoke of blonde insertion, which was finished with a bertha of beautiful Limerick lace. The skirt, which was in the very latest mode of fashion, being narrow, and had a most artistic panel, from bust to hem, of silver tissue, worked in true lovers knots, and three and four-leaved shamrocks; this design was carried out round the skirt, and on the train. A beautifully folded scarf, coming from the Empire waist at back, and knotted at the left side of the skirt, and finished in the design of silver tissue, as on the gown, completed the robe. The bride wore the customary wreath and veil, the latter which was lent by Mrs. Spruson, of Sydney, was of Limerick lace of most beautiful design. The bride was attended by Miss Madeline Corlis, sister of the bridegroom, who wore a very daintily designed Empire frock of ivory crepe de chene over chiffon taffetta, a panel of Irish crotchet lace being continued from bust to hem. The bodice had a yoke of Malines insertion finished off with Irish crochet and silk tassels: she also wore a very stylish large hat of ivory satin, with tulle and large white roses. The bride's travelling dress was of the very latest design in directoire coat and skirt of cinnamon brown, striped Sicilian beautifully braided, with which was worn a very dainty cream net blouse, with yoke of Malines lace and threadings of Vieux rose ribbon. A very smart hat in the new wide brimmed style, trimmed with swaithe of Ottoman silk and brown quills completed a charming tout ensemble. The bridegroom was attended by Mr. E. Corlis, bRother of the bride, who acted as groomsman. The Nuptial Mass was celebrated by the Rev. Father Lawler, the choir singing the 'Ave Maria.' Mr. Fuller, the organist, presided at the organ, and played the 'Wedding March.' At the conclusion of the ceremony the bridal party and a large number of guests returned to the Royal Hotel, where an excellent wedding breakfast was laid, the tables being artistically decorated, which reflected great credit on the establishment. The happy couple left for Sydney by the midday passenger train. Bathurst Daily Argus, Thursday 18 February 1909, p. 20. |
| Death | 4 May 1911 Age: 68 DEATHS CORLIS. - May 4, 1911, at her late residence, “Beronga,” Richmond-avenue, Neutral Bay, Bridget Mary, dearly loved wife of William Corlis, aged 68 years. R.I.P. Daily Telegraph, Friday 5 May 1911, p. 6. Death Bridget Mary Corlis CAPERTEE. (From our own Correspondent.) The death is announced, at the age of 68 years, of Mrs. Corlis, wife of Mr. William Corlis, sen., of Neutral Bay, and formerly of this place. Mrs. Corlis was one of the oldest residents of this district, and resided at Bandanora for very many years prior to taking up her residence in the metropolis. The deceased lady was held in the highest esteem throughout the district. Lithgow Mercury, Wednesday 10 May 1911, p. 1. Obituary Bridget Corlis Mrs. William Corlis. By the death of Mrs. William Corlis on Thursday last at "Beronga," Mosman, another link is broken in that grand old chain that joined the present with the past. Whenever the history of New South Wales, comes to be written, there should loom largely, the heroic deeds of those grand old pioneering families which have "blazed the track," and been the chief factors in the development of our country. Mrs. Corlis, like a goodly number of old identities, was a Penrith native, and after marrying at the age of 21 years, she and her husband settled at Capertee, where Mr. Corlis had acquired a considerable land area, now known as Bandanora Station. During a residence extending over 45 years, Mrs. Corlis proved one of the best helpmates that a husband could possibly have, and as a mother she leaves behind her evidence of her excellent home training in the five daughters and four sons who, with their father, are left to mourn her loss. Outside her home circle she was beloved by the residents of the Mudgee district for her many estimable qualities, charitable deeds, and hospitality. Those who were privileged to claim long friendships speak admiringly of her great Catholicity and devotion to the Rosary, and here it may be mentioned that there was not a more ardent admirer of the "Freeman" (which can claim the family as one of its oldest subscribers) than the deceased. Two years ago the family came to reside privately in Sydney, owing to Mrs. Corlis's health, and the management of "Bandanora" was then handed over by the father to his son Charles. Mrs. Corlis, though rallying at times, never regained her health, and after long and patient suffering she passed away to the Great Beyond, despite all that was humanly possible being done by medical skill and the loving care and devotion of her husband and daughters. Besides the son previously mentioned, there are Messrs. John and Edwin Corlis, following pastoral pursuits at Moree; and Mr. Herbert Corlis, surveyor on the Northern Rivers. Of the daughters, one is married to Mr. Rogers, and resides at Gresford; another, Sister Imelda, is in the Bathurst Convent. There are three daughters unmarried - Kate, Jessie, and Madeline. The family have the widest and deepest sympathy in their great loss, as evidenced by the large number of telegrams received. The funeral took place on Friday afternoon, the remains being encased in a magnificent silver-mounted and polished cedar coffin, which was covered with beautiful wreaths sent by the following: - Messrs. John Bridge and Co., Miss Galaher, Mr. R. C. Dawson, Mrs. Munro and Miss McLean, Miss J. Innes, Misses R. and M. Cafferatti, Mr. and Miss Baker, and Mr. and Mrs. Morant and family. Amongst the chief mourners were Messrs. William, Charles., and Edward Corlis. P. Brennan. J. Mooney (Croydon), and J. Moran; while amongst others present were Messrs. Clarence Bridge, Captain R. J. B. Stephens and N. Stephens, Keen (Moree), Mawhiney (Moree), H. Ryan (Capertee). The remains were preceded by a cab, in which was seated the Rev. Father O'Regan (Mosman). who attended at the graveside at Gore Hill cemetery, and read the burial prayers. Thus was laid to rest all that remained earthly of a grand old Catholic wife and mother. - R.I.P. Freeman's Journal, Thursday 11 May 1911, p. 23. Obituary Bridget Corlis |
