- Notes: Obituary Mr. Henry Agnew
Following a brief illness the death occurred at Cooma District Hospital early on Tuesday, 7th inst., of Mr. Henry Agnew , of Bombala Street Cooma, at the age of 82 years.
The late Mr. Agnew was the second son of Mr. and Mrs. John Agnew of Cooma, where he was born and where the greater part of his life was spent.
For very many years he was a shearer travelling and working in many parts of New South Wales as well as Queensland. He could speak most interestingly and with first hand knowledge of the early struggles of the Shearing Union, later merged in the A.W.U. and he was personally acquainted with many of the early Labor Party representatives who came to the front in those industrial and political pioneering days.
Mr. Agnew conducted billiard saloons both in the city and in Cooma, and associated with the latter the business of hair dressing, which he later adopted as his livelihood.
He was well known and popular throughout Monaro and was held in the highest esteem by a very wide circle of friends . A well earned tribute to his knowledge of Monaro and of land matters, as well as of men, was his appointment as a mem ber of the Cooma Local Land Board, a position which he filled with credit to himself and advantage to the community
