The W.A. record (perth) 24 Jul 1915
A MURCHISON IDENTITY. The funeral, of Mr Frederick Ridley, late of the Fingall mine, Day Dawn, took place on Saturday morning last, and was well attended. The deceased, who was 51 years of age, was a native of New South Wales, where he resided for 33 years, the latter 18 years of his life having been spent in this State. On the Murchison he was familiarly known as "Jersey." Mr Ridley enjoyed a reputation for marvellous escapes from fatal acci dents. On one occasion he fell down a shaft, and was saved from death by his belt, which caught in a pro jection in the shaft, and. suspended him there until, he was safely releas ed. Other equally remarkable escapes fell to his lot, until his luck became almost proverbial. Like many other Murchison miners and prospectors; Mr Ridley fell a victim to the miners' variety of white plague, and after a comparatively short illness, he died in West Subiaco Hospital. The cortege proceeded to the Catholic portion of the Karrakatta Cemetery, where the remains were laid to rest, the Rev. P. Masterson conducting the last rites. The following gentlemen acted as pall-bearers : The Hon. M. F. Troy. (Speaker, Legisla tive Assembly), Mr. T. Chesson, M.L.A., Mr. J. Meares, Mr. K.. Symonds, Mr. P. Maher, Mr. W. Ellson, Mr. F. Tresize, Mr. H. Panton, Mr. J. Lindley. R.I.P. |
