The Tumut and Adelong Times 26 Apr 1932
OBITUARY THE LATE Mr. HARRY ELPHICK One of the oldest executive members of the A.W.U. Central Branch, Mr. Henry Elphick, of Tumut, died at the residence of his brother-in-law and sister, Mr. and Mrs. Jack Bailey, Stanmore, on Thursday morning last. Deceased left Tumut upon medical advice for Sydney over two months ago and entered Prince Alfred Hospital, but as it was there ascertained that his case was very serious and incurable he was removed to the residence of his sister, where the services of a trained nurse were obtained for him. His end came more suddenly than was expected, as arrangements were being made for his return to Tumut to be in the midst of his family when the end came. His brother, Cr. Jas. Elphick, Tumut Shire Deputy-Presdent, was with him on the Sunday previous to death and left the next day for Tumut in the belief that the end was some time oft. The late Harry Elphick was 64 years of age, and was the son of the late Stephen Elphick sr. and the youngest of the family. Born at Big Ben, South Gundagai, he came to Tumut with his parents 50 years ago, and on coming to manhood followed mining for many years, at Kiandra, Broken Cart, Horseshoe, Lacmalac, Billapaloora and other goldfields. He had for 44 years been connected with the Labor movement, his union activities dating back to 1888, when to talk labor was almost a crime. He was prominent in the early struggles of the Shearers' Union, and was active in the men's organisations as an executive officer. For 12 years he held the position of organiser of the A. W. U. Central Branch, which he retained till his death, he having taken up that post when his brotherin-law, Mr. Jack Bailey, was elected president of that union. His business as organiser took him all over the State from the Northern to the Southern limits, but of recent years his activities were centred mostly in the South, and the duties he performed were sufficient to test the energies of the most robust stalwart. He started on his rounds with a push bike, then as funds would allow he purchased a motor cycle, and sidecar in which he carried round his literature and propaganda, and afterwards came the motor car. He was a staunch Federalist and an ardent supporter of Mr. Parker Moloney, ex-Federal member for the Hume, from the very first time the ex-Minister for Markets stood for that seat. The remains were bought to Tumut for interment on Friday. Rev F. W. Rettie, Rector of All Saints, recited a short prayer at the home before the funeral left for the New Cemetery, and conducted the burial service. The chief mourners were his widow and family, Mr James Elpliick (elder brother), Mesdames John Corr, H. Crampton and F. Dowell (sisters). Mr. William Elphick is the only other surviving brother. The pall-bearers were Charles, Ernest (sons), James, Dan., Ernest and Sep. (nephews). His widow is a daughter of the late Charles and Mrs Smiles, of Newtown. The family left with her to mourn their irreparable loss are Mrs Ted McAlister (Yerong Creek), Miss Lynnie (Macedon, Vic), Ernie ("Joe"), Edie, Charles, Nellie; Una and Frank (Tumut).
