- Notes: MISS NORA EGAN
As reported briefly in our last issue, the death took place of Miss Nora Egan, of "Erinvale" Gocup, on Tuesday evening, after years of suffering, at the age of 67 years. The late Miss Egan was a daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. Michael [sic] Egan, of "Erinvale," and she spent practically all her life in these environs. For years, however, she has been an invalid, tenderly cared for by her niece, Miss Moina McEvoy.
On the death of Miss Egan's sister (Mrs. McEvoy), the three children, Ursula, Moina and Matthew, made their home with their grandmother and aunt, and right well have they reciprocated the care given them in their younger days. Miss Ursula has been away teaching and on Miss Moina's shoulders has fallen the major portion of the nursing and caring for her aunt, and this she done, giving unstinted love and devotiton to the invalid.
Miss Egan took a bad -turn on Monday last, and failing to respond to the usual treatment, peacefully passed away on Tuesday evening, fortified by the last rites of the Church of which she had been a loyal daughter, strictly adhering to her religious duties and visited constantly by the Very Rev. Dean Sharkey and Rev Fr. McPhillips. She was the essence of good nature, and supported every movement for the good of the district, besides giving generously to the Church, the Sisters, and any charitable cause.
The Egan family was one of the oldest families on Gocup, and of the eleven children of the late Mr. and Mrs. Michael [sic] Egan, but three now remain: Mr. John Egan, of 'Snowball," Gundagai, and Mrs. Dennis Hallanan (Annie), and Mrs. James Hallanan (Mary), both of Cootamundra. The deceased members of the family are Mrs. McEvoy (Ellen), Mrs. Laurence Brennan (Catherine), Miss Margaret Egan, Messrs. Matthew, William (Gunnedah) arid Michael Egan (Tarcutta), the latter only dying last year, and it is only within recent years that Mrs Egan passed away at an advanced age.
The funeral left "Erinvale" at 2.30 p.m. on Wednesday afternoon, and a great number of cars comprised the cortege. The remains were interred in the Catholic portion of the old Tumut cemetery, along side her parents and relatives, and the Very Rev. Dean Sharkey read the last prayers at the graveside. Many beautiful floral tributes were laid on the coffin, which was carried by Messrs. M. McEvoy, Matthew and Çhas. Egan (nephews), Jas. Brennan, William and Patrick McCormick.
