Personal Notes:
MR. JAMES ERNEST McGRATH
The death occurred in the early hours of Saturday morning last, after a short illness, of Mr. James Ernest McGrath, although he had not been in robust health for some time. A week before his demise he developed meningitis, from which he succumbed. On Thursday it was thought that he was much improved and hopes were entertained by his wife and family for his recovery, but on Friday he lapsed into unconsciousness and never rallied, Dr. Mason doing everything that medical skill could apply to retain the vital spark. His age was 62 years. He was the son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Thomas McGrath, of Bombowlee, and was born in this district. He married Delph May Denson, of Bombowlee, and they lived on Bombowlee Creek until they removed in to Tumut, and took up their residence in Capper st., where he died. There are five sons (Herbert, Ernest, Reg., John and Roy), two daughters (Gertrude and Phyllis), two brothers (Thomas and Daniel), and two sisters, Bridget and Ellen (Mrs. Chas. King), surviving, with a sorrowing wife to mourn their great loss. The funeral took place on Sunday afternoon, Very Rev. Dean Sharkey performing the obsequies and Mr. H. W. Baker carried out the undertaking duties. The pallbearers were the five sons and deceased's nephew (Mr. Pat. McGrath). The remains were laid to rest in the Roman Catholic portion of the New Cemetery.
