Note 7: Cairns Post 9 Feb 1943 OBITUARY. MR. HENRY KEOUGH. HERBERTON, February 8 The death of Mr. Henry Keough, of "Bell View," Evelyn, at the great age of 86 years, marks the passing of the last of the original selectors of that district, and removes a most pic- turesque personality. Born at New Ross, County Wexford. Ireland, he was an only child of an old Irish family: his mother dying when he was very young, he came to Australia at an early age on a sailing ship, the Sheener, the journey round the Cape was long and rough. From Brisbane he first went to Logan River and was employed at Agiston, near Beenleigh; later going to Mackay, where he worked for the C.S.R. in the Homebush sugar mill. Moving still northward he was em- ployed at Maidavale (Ayr district) by Dr. McBernie. the owner of that sugar plantation and later transferred to Pioneer to work as a field overseer for the late John Drysdale. Here he mar- ried Miss Kate Stanley, and two years later the young couple with an infant came overland past the Valley of lagoons, the trip taking six months. At Scrubby Creek (near Nyleta) he purchased cows from the late Mr. Bob Gordon, and moved to Evelyn. Here he acquired a fine selection 52 years ago and his home. "Bell View" is one of the highest private residences in Queensland. The Keough dairy here soon became well known, its progeny being the foundation of many neigh- bouring herds, whilst dairy butter made by Mrs. Keough, under the then primitive conditions of cooling and refrigeration, was packed in cool mul- berry leaves and linen cloth and trans- ported by pack-horse to distant min- ing fields like Irvinebank and Mont- albion. The late Henry Keough was a man of great vision: he forty years ago foresaw the days when timber would be scarce and valuable: and whilst Governmental policy of that day was clamouring for the clearing of scrub and putting the land into agri- cultural or dairying productivity, he considered that the continued growth of its native timber was the land's most valuable production and deplored its destruction to grow grass - a policy widely endorsed to-day when his re- serves of timber are being acquired for war purposes. This hospitable old pioneer was a great lover of good literature, especially poetry, and the bush songs of the Australian poets appealed to him. Like R. L. Steven- son, he chose his own last resting place. ". . . Here he lies where he longed to be." his wish being rever- ently carried out by his family. He was laid to rest in a sylvan glade "'neath the tall gum trees" on his own beloved homeland, the pall-bearers being descendants of his pioneer neighbours of half a century ago and the funeral services conducted by Rev. Bro. Tre- gear, of the Bush Brotherhood. De- ceased is survived by his widow, three sons (Messrs Charles. Stanley and Leslie, all of the Evelyn district), two daughters (Mesdames E.Gallogly and B. Dempsey): also 20 grandchildren and five great-grandchildren.
