OBITUARY MR. WILLIAM JOHN MASTERS
The death occurred at the Tumut District Hospital in the early hours of Tuesday morning last of Mr. William John Masters, eldest son of Mrs. Annie Masters and the late William Masters, of Tumut, at the age of 68 years. About ten years ago the subject of this obituary developed a serious heart condition (angina pectoris) and was compelled to relinquish his occupation, that of a painter. The late Mr. Masters was a bachelor and resided with his mother and sisters at the family home in Capper-Street. Deceased is survived by his mother (now aged 96 years), six sisters, Flo,
Maggie, Millie (Mrs. M. Cruise), of Tumut, Ethel (Mrs. E. Herring, Randwick), Edith and Nellie (Mrs. Bradford, Batlow), and two brothers, George and Rupert. One brother, Herbert, predeceased him at a very early age many years ago.
Unfortunately, his brother George, who is at present in Lismore, could not reach home in time for the funeral.
Following a service conducted by Rev. Father Bartley (Cootamundra), who also officiated at the graveside, the funeral left the Church of the Immaculate Conception for the Catholic portion of the Tumut New Cemetery, where interment took place on Wednesday morning last.
