The Tumut and Adelong Times 20 Sep 1927
GOLDEN WEDDING Last Saturday night week Mr. and Mrs. M. Quirk, of Wagra, celebrated their golden wedding, being fifty years married. There was a happy gathering of about fifty friends and relatives, who bestowed congratulations; on the much-respected couple. Dancing and singing was indulged in and the cup of merriment was full to overflowing. At 12 o'clock the guests sat down to a sumptuous breakfast. The choicest of everything was there, including a very pretty wedding cake. And much credit is due to Mrs. W. Arentz for the way she carried out her part in connection with the breakfast. She was assisted by her other sisters. Mr. E. Hargreaves filled the chair and proposed the toast of the bride and bridegroom of 50 years ago, Mr. and Mrs. Quirk, everyone singing "They are Jolly Good Fellows." Many other speakers spoke to the toast, and a jolly time was spent, Mr. and Mrs. Quirk received many very nice and valuable presents. Dancing was afterwards resumed until about 3 a.m., when the happy gathering broke up by singing "Auld Lang Syne," encircling Mr. and Mrs. Quirk, who were seated on two easy chairs in the centre of the floor. This concluded one of the happiest gatherings one could really wish to attend.

OBITUARY
MR. MICHAEL QUIRK
As briefly announced in our last issue, one of the members of an old pioneering family passed away suddenly at his home on Thursday morning, in the person of Mr. Michael Quirk, of Wagragobilly.

The deceased complained about pain early in the morning, but was not regarded as anything serious, but about 10.45 death came in all its suddenness, and with harly any warning at all.

At Adjungbilly, 82 years ago, Mr, Quirk first saw the light of day, and for that span of years he has resided in and around Wagragobilly. Mr. Quirk took as his life partner, Miss Walsh, who survives him, also four daughters, Mrs. Ab. Holt, Mrs. Claude Veneables (Wagragobilly ) Mrs. Bill Arantz, and Mrs. R. Arantz (Tumut), and three sons, Mick, Cyrus and Jim, all of Wagragobilly.

The funeral took place last Friday afternoon, when the mortal remains were interred in the Catholic cemetery at Wagragobilly, Rev. Fr. Tracey reciting the last prayers.
