St. John's Church of England, Forbes, was the scene of a pretty wedding on Wednesday afternoon, when the Rev. H. H. Prlchard united in the holy bonds of matrimony Miss Una Robb, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. Robb, of North Hill, and Mr. Cecil Waller, a member of the staff of Messrs John Meagher and Co., Ltd. The bride, who was given away by her brother, Mr. William Robb, wore a pretty gown of white pan velvet, draped with silk fringe and fur. Her veil was lent by Mrs. Tampie White, and she carried a bouquet of white jonquils and lilies and maiden-hair fern. Her present from the bridegroom was a xylonite brush and comb. The bridesmaid, Miss Waller, sister of the bridegroom, wore shrimp pink georgette, beautifully beaded, with hat en suite. The best man was Mr. B. Gore. The reception after the ceremony was at the residence of the bride's parents, after which the happy couple left for their honeymoon at Orange, the bride's travelling dress being a cinnamon brown assembly frock, very prettily beaded and stitched, and hat to tone. ;Bride=Una Robb3 |
| Death of Father | 27 February 1942 | Condobolin, NSW, Australia; OBITUARY ALBERT THOMAS WALLER Not a man in public life but one of the very honest working type with a word equal to the best man's bond, may briefly describe the subject of this notice, who passed away at his home in Condobolin on Friday, 27th, February. Born in Condobolin 64 years ago, he spent his whole life here— a life given to constant hard work and faithful fulfilment of all things entrusted to him. As a carrier, by which he found work and means of living for many years past, he did work for many of the best people in the district, always holding preference in their minds. His father, Samuel Waller, came to Condobolin when a young man, coming with his father, John Waller, who had been a Sergeant of Police in the early days. Married at Condobolin, on 31st March, 1899, to Lilian Cunningham. Children are Cecil (Forbes), Jack (Condobolin), Charles (Sydney), Mrs. Clarke (Forbes), Mrs. Bassett (Fairholme), Mrs. Betts (Molong), Mrs. Nash (Fairholme). One son, Athol, died only just a week before his father, and this sad event must have had a telling effect on the very sick father who had been ailing for a good while and in rather a serious condition for several weeks. Sisters of deceased are Mrs. Corrigan (Rockdale), Mrs. Mower (Dubbo), Mrs West (Sydney). The burial took place on Saturday afternoon, the remains being laid to rest in the Church of England portion of Condobolin cemetery, the cortege moving from All Saints' Church at 4 p.m. Rev. J. S. Richards officiated at the services and Mr. Robert Marlin had change of the funeral arrangements. Quite a large number assembled at the graveside, among whom were many that deceased had worked for, particularly as carrier. Thus the country people contributed largely to the attendance. To the bereaved ones we offer our sincere sympathy.;Principal=Albert Thomas Waller4 |
