MR THOMAS DUNNE
The death occurred at the Wagga. Base Hospital on Sunday of Mr. Thomas Dunne, a retired market gardener, aged 83 years. The late Mr. Dunne was taken to Wagga a fortnight ago to have a cataract removed from his eye. Up to then he had never had any sickness.
On account of his old age it was thought the operation was rather risky. However it was a success. He then suffered a stroke and later pneumonia set in from which he passed away.
The late Mr. Dunne was born in Tumut. He came to Leeton at the commencement of the irrigation area in 1912 to work on Mr. Quodling's farm. He had also worked on soldier settlers blocks on Merungle and Corbie Hills, and later grew vegetables on what was known as the old nursery.
He is survived by two daughters and two sons, Kathleen 'Topsy' (Mrs. Elliott). Molly (Mrs. Walkerden of Wandoo Street), Jack (Leeton) and George (Sydney).
His funeral will move from Ashton's Parlours at 3 p.m. this (Tuesday) for the Catholic portion of Leeton Cemetery.
