Death of an Old Colonist.
A STIRRING CAREER.
One of the oldest Australian colonists and a pioneer of Victoria, in the person of Mrs. Elizabeth Wills, passed peacefully away at Geelong on Saturday last, in her 91st year. Coming to Sydney in 1819 or 1820 with her parents — her father being a sergeant in the military forces — she was educated at Parramatta, and when but a girl of sixteen married to Mr. Horatio Spencer Wills. In 1837 Mr. and Mrs. Wills settled on land in the Tumut district, in New South Wales. Some three years later, owing to uncertainty of tenure, they left this holding, and travelled by bullock-team to Melbourne, and thence to Lexington, in the Ararat district. Mr. Wills selected land there, and gave the name of Ararat to the mount, because, like the dove, they .'rested there.' From 1840, some twelve years were passed at Lexington, and Mrs. Wills, amongst other incidents of those stirring times, came to regard the visits of ' bush rangers as quite ordinary occurrences. In 1852 Mr. Wills purchased Belle Vue Farm, at Point Henry, Geelong. and also acquired Cullinlaringo Station, in the Leichhardt - district, in Queensland, where, on 17th October, 1861, he paid for his pioneership with his life, being attacked and killed by the blacks. Mrs. Wills and her family continued their residence at Point Henry. Her eldest son, T. W. Wills, well known as Tommy Wills, was a prominent Australian cricketer for many years, and was the organiser and captain of the first aboriginal cricket team that played in Australia, whilst her sons Horace and Egbert were familiar figures in the Geelong football field. Mrs. Wills remained constant to the Geelong district as a place of residence, with the exception of some eight years, which she spent at Hawthorn. She was of a kindly and charitable nature, though just and discriminating in her gifts. Besides many private kindnesses and benevolences, she gave substantial aid, both in buildings and in money, to the Old Colonists' Association, whilst various funds of the Church of England, of which she was a member1, received - material assistance from her. The last years, of her life were quietly and happily passed at the 'Grove,' Geelong, the home of her son-in-law, Mr. H.. Blomfield Brown. Of her family of four sons and five daughters, three of the former and four of the latter survive her, whilst it may be also mentioned that the three generations of her family include 36 grandchildren and 17 great grandchildren.

About this object
Cedric Spencer Wills, the second son of Horatio Howe Spencer Wills, who is recognised as the first white settler of the Ararat district of Victoria, was born at `Lexington' Ararat on 1st December 1844.
He received his early education privately but in 1859 he was sent to Bonn, Germany to complete his education and to study the finer arts of wool and grape growing. When his father and party were massacred by blacks at Cullin-la-ringo in 1861, he returned to Australia and arrived at the station on the Nogoa River on 3rd November 1862 to learn the practical side of the pastoral industry under the management of a Mr Johnston and later a Mr Morrison.
On the 16th April 1867, when in his 24th year, he left Cullin-la-ringo in charge of 10,000 family-owned sheep travelling them for sale in the south. He and his party drove them via the present Springsure/Tambo road onto the Nive River, then onto the Warrego, across to the Paroo, down that river until they ran out of water, then back onto the Darling which they followed to the Murray. They shore the sheep at Mrs Cole's `Ki' station. January 17th found them camped near Euston on the Victorian border and February 4th 1868 they camped on the Lachlan River where the sheep were sold. They then started the long trip back to central Queensland.
Soon after his return Cedric was appointed manager of Cullin-la-ringo for his father's estate. On 20th March 1872 Cedric married Elizabeth MacDonald. In 1881 he, his two younger brothers and two sisters bought Cullin-la-ringo from his father's estate but during the droughts of the 1880s natural waters dried up and stock perished. The banks took over in 1892.
When land was being resumed for closer settlement in the 1880s Cedric selected several blocks off Cullin-la-ringo and adjoining holdings in the names of members of his family so when the crash came, he built a house on one of the blocks and carried on in the industry on about 17,000 acres that he had salvaged. He was able to buy out other selectors over the years and increase his holding.
When local government first came to the district in 1879, Cedric was elected to represent his division on what was then called the Leichhardt Divisional Board and he continued to do so until 1902. He was a Magistrate of the district, a Trustee of the original Show Society, served on the hospital board and many other civil bodies.
He died in the Springsure Hospital on the 23rd January 1914 and could claim to be the longest serving pioneer of the district which he had helped from the days when, as a youth of 17, he rode on the trail of the blacks who had speared Riddell on the banks of Minerva Creek, through to the time of the arrival of the railway and telephones. He was survived by a family whose descendants have continued to serve the community on the land and in civil administration. It is thought that they are one of the few families who still hold a portion of the land that was originally stocked by their ancestors.
