Personal Notes:

The Tumut and Adelong Times 19 Feb 1935 OBITUARY MR. MAURIE MADIGAN The not-unexpected death of Mr. Maurie L. Madigan, licensee of the Commercial Hotel, Tumut, when in what is regarded as the "prime of life," 54 years, took place at the Tumut District Hospital on Sunday at 5 p.m. Deceased was the eldest son of Mr. James E. Madigan and the late Mrs. Madigan, host and hostess of the Oriental Hotel for many, many years. In the early stages of his career he was connected with the auctioneering and commission agency business in Tumut, being associated with the late William Walker, one of our most verile salesmen who started on his own account, after being in partnership with Mr. Edward Wilkinson. Many thousands of stock passed through their hands and Mr. Maurie Madigan saw that the office and clerical work was always up-to-date and in due order. In 1916 he married Miss Ruth Kiley, daughter of the late Edward Kiley, and of Mrs. Kiley, now of Yass, at Manly, and when they came back to Tumut Mr. Madigan leased his father's property, known as "Queen's Villa" Tumut Plains Road, and carried on successfully dairying and milk-vending in Tumut until October, 1933, when he relinquished that business to take over his father's hotel, the "Oriental," which he and his good and diligent wife carried on for 12 months, when their tentative lease expired. During Mr. Maurie's tenure of the Oriental, where he and his better half were building up a substantial business connection, he underwent a minor operation which had nothing to do with his subsequent illness, although he was somewhat in delicate health up to the time he took seriously ill about two months ago. They took over the greater responsibilities of the Commercial Hotel in October last. Then Dr. Harbison was called in and overhauled the patient, and later a consultation was held between Drs. Harbison and J. W. Mason, the outcome of which was that they advised that Mr. Madigan should go to Sydney and place himself under observation by a specialist. With this view Mrs. Madigan had him placed in St. Vincent's Hospital, and Drs. Diethelm and Sir John McKelvie were entrusted with the diagnosis of the case. It was a baffler for some days, no less than five X-rays being taken before the actual seat of the malady was located, and then the specialists' views were that nothing could be done to save the patient's life. The patient was then in a very weak state, but expressed a desire, as the end was approaching, that his last few days should be spent in the place of his birth; so Mrs. Madigan, taking the risk of death that the specialists warned her might occur on the long and tedious train journey, brought her husband home on Friday last and took him immediately to the Tumut District Hospital, where he passed away, as stated, on Sunday, Dr. Harbison (then in Sydney) having made arrangements from there for his admission to hospital. The specialists mentioned that his trouble had been accentuated by business mental worry. Maurie Madigan was one of the most conscientious and fair minded business men of our town and since taking up hotelkeeping he and his good wife were in a fair way to hold the confidence and support of the public in a generous spirit, Mrs. Madigan herself proving a most capable hostess; and to her and their young son Maurice is left the ordeal of continuing the business of the Commercial Hotel, which they have conducted in the most approved style. The funeral took place yesterday, the remains being interred in the Roman Catholic portion of the New Cemetery, Rev. Fr. Comerford officiating at the graveside, and Messrs. W. Fuller and Son carrying out the mortuary arrangements. The pallbearers were two cousins (Pat. and Lou. Kiley), W. Hudson, Tom. Malone and Ralph Kiley (brothersin-law) and Harry Marzol. Besides a sorrowing widow, there are left a pigeon-pair, Master Maurice and Miss Beatrice, his father, Mr. Jas E. Madigan, three brothers, Augustus (Cottlesloe, W.A.), Norman ("Tony," St. Leonards), and Vincent (Tumut), and one sister (Miriam), Mrs. Tom Malone, Tumut Plains. One brother, Percy B., predeceased him. Over 50 cars formed the cortege, which left from the Church of the Immaculate Conception, where the coffined remains were kept over night, after a short service at which Fr. Comerford officiated and Mrs. Percy B. Madigan (sister-in-law) presided at the organ. The children attending St. Brigid's Convent School formed a guard of honour outside the church as the coffined remains were taken from the church to the hearse. Amongst the mourners were: Mrs. Kiley (mother of Mrs. Madigan), Mr. and Mrs. J. O'Brien (brotherin-law), Messrs. Jack, Pat. and Lou Kiley (cousins, and deceased's greatest friends).
