OBlTUARY
A add fatality occurred on the Jolimount road yesterday morning, through which Mr. Richard Madill, a well-known and highly respected farmer, met his death. The deceased gentleman was driving in a dray from his selection to Mirani, when the horse bolted and the wheel striking a stone, the vehicle over turned, pinning the unfortunate man beneath. Two persons who witnessed the runaway at once ran forward, but, on raising the dray it was found that the deceased's neck was broken and life was extinct. Arrangements were at once made for the conveyance of the body to town by last evening's train. The late
Mr. Madill had resided in Mackay for 45 years, having arrived in Rockhampton a year previously, from Cootehill, Cavan, Ireland, in the vessel Flying Cloud. On his arrival here he worked for some time in the employ of Mr. Frank Bridgeman, but subsequently went in for farming on his own account. Though over 64 years of age, deceased was hale and hearty and his untimely end will be regretted by a large circle of friends.
A widow and family of four daughters and two sons are left to mourn their sad loss, and to them heartfelt sympathy will
be extended. The eldest son, Mr. Jack Madill, is a railway employee stationed at Hatton, and the other son, Mr.
Wallace Madill, is in the employ of Beirne (Mackay), Litd. The eldest daughter is the wife of Mr. Robert Armstrong, of Boldon, and another daughter is the wife of Mr. W. Christoe, of Farleigh.
The funeral takes place at noon to-day.

ARMSTRONG. — In proud and loving
memory of our only son and bro-
ther, Lieutenant Thomas Acheson
Armstrong, who was killed in ac-
tion at Pascheadaele on the 12th
October, 1917.
So let them rest ; the work so nobly
done —
A grander monument than marble
tomb,
The victory sure, which they so
bravely won.
Will shine for ever through the
saddest gloom.
A little while, and they will rise
again,
Responsive to that last long trum-
pet sound,
Then grief shall be effaced — no weep-
ing then,
For whereso'er they sleep is Hal-
lowed Ground.
(Inserted by his parents and sisters.)
ARMSTRONG. — In memory of my
dear nephew, Lieut. T. A. Arm-
strong, who was killed in action at
Paschendaele, on the 12th October,
1917.
Our lips speak our words,
And our smiles are for all men to
see :
But our hearts and our thoughts and
our tears
Are for thee; are for thee.
