DEATH OF AN OLD RESIDENT
It is with great regret we have to report the death of Mrs John Green of Carrawobitty which took place on Saturday, May 29th. Mrs Green was an old resident of the district, having been on the Lachlan long before Forbes had an existence, and formerly with her husband, John Green owning ‘Uar Station’ on the Grenfell road. Mrs Green was a great sufferer for some time past and her medical advisers had long anticipated such would be the end of her illness, so that it was not altogether unexpected. Her remains were conveyed to the grave in the Church of England cemetery on Saturday last, followed by a large number of sorrowing friends and relatives.5
