1911 James (2nd) BAWDEN parents JAMES & MARTHA died in TUMUT - (Ref- NSW BDM 7773/1911).
It becomes our melancholy duty to record the demise, at the age of 55 years, of Mr James Bowden, of West Blowering, whioh occured at his residence at 8 p.m. on Saturday last, the cause of death being carokiomia of the liver.
The poor fellow had been a long and patient sufferer from the fell disease, he had been attended by Drs. Mason and Browne, who did their best to alleviate his troubles.
Another landmark from West Blowering has gone to that land "where the wicked ceasa from troubling and the weary are at rest."
Deceased was an old resident of Tumut, quiet, inoffensive and unobtrusive character, and his loss will be felt by his many friends, for whom he was ever ready, in his time, to do a friendly turn.
His sorrowing wife, while life remained in her husband, had hope, and was anxious to get him down to Sydney for treatment; but was strenuously advised there was no possible chance of recovery, as his trouble was too deep seated to permit of success.
He leaves behind him a sorrowing wife, three sons and five daughters
(one Mrs Tozer, of Adaminaby) to mourn their loss.
His remains were interred in the R.C. portion of the new cemetery on Monday last. Mr Jas Elphick was the undertaker, and Rev Father Slattery read the last sad rites at the grave. We tender the bereaved our deepest sympathy. - (Ref- The Tumut Advocate and Farmers & Settlers' Adviser (NSW : 1903 - 1925)(about) Previous issue Tuesday 30 May 1911 Page 2).
