The sudden death of her mother last week will probably mean the postponement of Miss Bunny Bowling's wedding. She was to have married Mr David Sanderson Lloyd, of Rose Bay, at the end of November. Miss Bowling, who has the prettiest bronze hair and- deep blue eyes, is one of the best known girls in the Glen Innes district. Her father, Mr. Torn Bowling, owns "Glen Lee" station, Glen Innes. 29 October Sydney Daily Telegraph |
THE GIRL'S DEATH.
Very Sad Ending. The other member of the awful happening was Miss Edith Eileen Morrow, second daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Morrow, of Mt. Russell. For about six months prior to her untimely ending she was employed by Mr. and Mrs. Otto Robertson, of Brae Street, as a domestic. It will be remembered that as she did not appear with the morning tea as usual on the morning of July 13th, Mr. Robertson knocked at her door and upon getting no response enter ed to find her lying dead across her bed clad in a singlet and pyjama trousers. It appears that before re tiring the girl had made the usual pre paration for resuming her duties next morning, and had laid out the crock ery ready for the service of morning tea. Each article of apparel was folded neatly on a chair in her bed room, and a candle on a nearby table had gutted out in the socket indicat ing that the girl had been overtaken by a sudden seizure, and had collapsed before she could finish her preparations for retiring for the night. One of the puzzling features of the case is that the girl was of a bright and happy disposition and had never had cause to visit a doctor over any illness. On the night of the tragedy it is al leged that she had been out with a young man with whom she was keep ing company, and returned home in the vicinity of midnight. Deceased was born at Delungra and was 18½ years of age. She spent all her school days at Mt. Russell leaving after passing the Q.C. She was first in the employ of Mr. and Mrs. Lloyd, "Yoi," Delungra, and latterly with Mr and Mrs. Robertson, Inverell. In the Mt. Russell district, where deceased was well known, she was loved and esteemed by all, and the utmost sympathy has been extended to the grief-stricken parents. 1933 http://nla.gov.au/nla.news-article185814234 |
