FALKINER, Wynnum. The Queenslander 6 Oct 1894 FALKINER--On the 2nd. July, at his residence, Coral Cottage, West Maitland, John FALKINER, son of the late Nathaniel FALKINER, county Tipperary, aged 80 years. The Methodist (Sydney) 28 July 1894 IN MEMORIAM. MR. JOHN FALKINER. On the 2nd July, John Falkiner finished his course with joy, and entered the rest of God. He was born in Ireland on the 30th September, 1814, and had, therefore, reached his 80th year. He came to this colony in 1842, and was converted to God in the year 1840, in the old country. With the exception of a few weeks spent in Sydney, all his colonial life has been associated with the Hunter River District. By his death, one of the old landmarks of Methodism has been removed from the West Maitland Circuit. And although his days of active service had ceased for some time, his loss is most keenly felt by all classes of the Community. For over 50 years Mr. Falkiner had been identified with Methodism in this Circuit. He was a co-worker with Jonathan Innis, the first minister appointed and his first work was the starting of a Sabbath-school on the verandah of the mission-house. During this long course of years he filled with credit to himself aud great satisfaction to others, every office in the Church that a laymen could fill — from Sabbath school superintendent to a representative in Conference. A very clear insight into Mr. Falkiner's character is obtained from a document which had been carefully preserved. It is in the form of a covenant engagement made with God in the year 1840. This covenant engagement was re-signed in 1847, and 1853, and, with further additions, in 1885. The united testimony of all that knew him is that he kept this covenant. He walked with God in the deepest humility of spirit — while his life was entirely devoted to His service. His own workmen, together with the widow, the fatherless, and the distressed, rise up with one accord to tell to-day what was not known before, of the good he had done and the help he had rendered to them in their day of need. In the consecration of his life to God, verily he had kept his covenant. A memorial service was conducted in the West Maitland Church on July 8th, by the Rev. C. Jones, and a large congregation was present to testify their respect and esteem for their departed friend. [The Editors desire to add a few words to the above. The late John Falkiner was known to both of them for the past 26 years. He was a man of unblemished character, of striking physique, of kindly disposition, and of rare and unwavering fidelity to Methodism. By his personal character, his liberal support, and his services both in and out of office, he did much to build up our Church on the Hunter River. He was ever a friend to ministers and a lover of good men. ' The memory of the just is blessed.'] The Maitland Weekly Mercury 7 July 1894 LOCAL NEWS. Lamented Death of Mr. John Falkiner. — A venerable townsman went to his rest at midday on Monday. Mr. John Falkiner, who was within a few months of completing his eightieth year, died at his residence between one and two o'clock, from bronchitis accclerated by influenza and weak ness of the heart's action. The connection of the deceased gentleman with west Mait land dates back to the thirties, but we have not ascertained the exact year of Mr Falkiner's advent — we believe it was 1837 or 1838. He was by trade a boot and shoemaker, and worked at his bench for many years, till by in dustry and frugality he enlarged his means and his way of business. And eventually he abandoned the boot and shoe trade for that of a baker and con fectioner, which he was carrying on at the time of his death, assisted mainly by his wife. Mr. Falkiner was senior trustee and Circuit steward in the Wes leyan Church, with which he had been con nected almost since its establishment in West Maitland, and he has in turn held all the offices in the church. He was an alderman of the Borough for one term, but was not otherwise pro minent in general public life. No religious move ment, however, lacked his countenance and his earnest help. He leaves a widow and three sons and four daughters surviving, one of his daughters being married to Mr. John Rourke and the other to Mr. J. H. Brunker. — The late Mr. Falkiner was a sincerely religious man, a pattern to all around him. He was a leader in the church of God — a pillar of the edifice. An able expounder of the truth as he saw it, he walked in the way in which he would have others walk; and he was zealous, painstaking, unsparing of effort, and perse vering. His extended experience made him a valu able counsellor alike in religious and in worldly matters; his probity and uprightness in every re lation of life won him the trust and confidence of everybody, and in his death the town suffers an ir reparable loss. Fervent in spirit, he was also dili gent in business, and he succeeded in acquiring a decent competency by virtue of exemplary conduct of his affairs. Death has been busy of late, but has taken none whose absence will be so severely missed in some circles.
