The Narracoorte Herald 24 April 1936 OBITUARY. MR. ALBERT HAINES. Mount Gambier, April 16. Mr. Albert Haines, one of the dis- trict's oldest remaining pioneers and a colonist of 85 years, died at the Thyne Memorial Hospital, Millicent, on Tuesday, following a short illness. In another two months Mr. Haines would have attained the age of 90 years, having been born in 1846 at Willshire. He came to Australia with his family at the age of four, landing at Port Adelaide. He lived in the Nairne and Mount Barker dis- tricts for some years, first coming to Mount Gambier in 1863. After some years of station life he became ap- prenticed to his father-in-law, the late Mr. George Duck Wyatt, in the wheelwright business. He then went to Horsham for a short time, and then to Bairnsdale, Gippsland. On re- turning to this district he conducted a wheelwright's business for Mr. Clay- field at Millicent, and afterwards spent four years at Rendelsham. His next move was to Lake Leake, where he held the property on which the original Glencoe station homestead was built. Leaving there in 1907 he took up land at Sandy Waterhole, on the Glenelg River, and left there in 1924 to live at Yahl. The last three years of his life were spent at Milli- cent, where he became ill only a few days before his death, having enjoyed good health all his life. Mr. Haines had a varied and interesting career. He knew Mount Gambier when what is now the main street was little more than a quagmire, and he had seen bullock drays bogged in it. He was married 64 years ago to Miss Eliza Wyatt, and the diamond wedding was celebrated. The following family survives:— Messrs. Albert, Mount Gambier; Lewis, Millicent; Ralph, Mount Gambier; Hamlet, Sandy Waterhole; Wallace, Drik Drik; Mes- dames George Little, Mumbannar; and John Cram, Gambier Forests. One daughter died in Tasmania, and a son was killed in the last war. Mr. Haines joined the Salvation Army when that organisation first became established in Mount Gambier, and remained a member for the rest of his Ife.
