Wagga Wagga Advertiser 31 Jan 1899
Death or Mr. William Rudd.
A WELL-KNOWN WAGGA RESIDENT.
News was received in Wagga yesterday
that Mr. William Rudd, who, as was
reported in our issue of Saturday, was
then seriously ill at Campbelltown, died at
that place on Sunday morning. His
illness was of a very short nature. A
week ago he was seized with a fit and as
this was succeeded by other attacks of
the same character he took to his bed
and medical advice was called. Despite
every attention from his brother, with
whom he was staying, and from the
family, Mr. Rudd gradually grew worse
and after a few days paralysis set in, death
occurring about 11 o'clock on Sunday morn-
ing. The serious character of the illness
was not recognised until last Wednesday
when Mr. Rudd's family were sent for and
they were with their father to the end.
Probably there was no one who was
better known throughout this district than
the late Mr. William Rudd. He was born
at Kenny's Hill near Campbelltown, where
his father owned a farm, but over half a
century ago has now elapsed since his
parents removed to this district and took
up Wagingoberembe station, young William
who was the eldest son, being at that time
a lad of some 12 or 13 years of age.
In due course Mr. Rudd, senr. gave his son
a start on a place of his own and the young
man went in largely for dealing in stock
and other property, the multifarious specu-
lations with which he was connected gener-
ally proving highly successful. Of shrewd
disposition, and possessing the faculty of
recognising a bargain, Mr. Rudd, during his
career, acquired a considerable amount of
property. He selected freely on Arajoel,
and at different times held large interests in
various station properties. His wife was a
Wagga lady, Miss Foulkes, and he was left
a widower about 7 or 8 years ago. The
family consisted of three daughters and one
son, all of whom survive their parents. The
late Mrs. Callaghan, of Wagga, was a sister
of Mr. Rudd, his brothers being the late
Mr. James Rudd, of Wagingoberembee,
Messrs. John and Isaac Rudd, of Colombo,
and Mr. Thomas Rudd, of Campbelltown.
The remains are to be brought to Wagga by
mail train this morning, and the funeral
will leave the railway station upon the
arrival of that train here.

WAGGA.
Death of Mr. William Rudd.
The remains of the late Mr. Wm. Rudd,
which came up by the mail train from
Campbelltown, were interred in the family
grave at the Wagga cemetery on Tuesday
week. The funeral was largely attended, de-
ceased being an old and well-known resident.
Although Mr. Rudd only remained in Campbelltown until he was 17 years of age, he
always regarded this place as his home. He
was well known there, and the expressions
of sympathy and sorrow which found vent
on his death becoming known were most
marked. The house where Mr. Rudd died
was some two miles from the railway station.
On Tuesday evening there gathered there,
to pay their last token of respect, quite a
number of local residents and friends from
the city. Rev. Father P. B. Kennedy,
O.S.F., parish priest of Waverley, an old
friend of the deceased's, came up and officiated at the ceremonies held at the house
prior to the removal of the body to the train.
He was assisted by the Rev. Father Dunne,
of Campbelltown. Amongst those who
assembled at the house or joined in the pro-
cession to the railway subsequently were
Mr. William Rudd (son of deceased), Miss
Rudd (daughter), Mrs. James Rudd, Mr.
Isaac Rudd and Mr. Thomas Rudd (brothers
of deceased), Mr. lsadore Rudd and Mr.
Frank Rudd, nephews), Mr. John Kidd,
M.P., Messrs. Sedgwick, O'Donnell, Wood-
house, Fieldhouse, Ward (Sydney), Bourke
(Sydney), Vardy (Sydney), I. Rudd (Har-
rington Point), Warby, Munroe, Water-
worth, Hickey, Hogan, Brenell (manager
Bank of New South Wales) and Rush. Mr.
P. K. White, nephew of deceased, was
prevented by professional engagements from
attending, but sent a telegram of sympathy.
The remains had been enclosed in a leaden
shell, which was encased in a polished oak
casket, with massive silver handles and
mountings, and a silver plate bearing the
inscription: "William Rudd, died 29th
January, 1899, aged (66. R.I.P." Hand-
some floral tributes were sent by Campbell-
town and Sydney friends, but only those
from the immediate relatives were brought
to Wagga. After the sad office of entrain-
ing the remains, the ceremony so far as
Campbelltown was concerned was over,
only the chief mourners, the son and
daughter and immediate relations, coming
to Wagga. When the mail train arrived at
Wagga there was a fairly large assemblage
at the station of those who wished to follow
the remains to the grave. The coffin was
removed from the train and placed in the
hearse, the bell at the convent, which had
been the gift of the deceased, tolling out,
meanwhile, its sad message. Before 10
o'clock the procession had moved off to the
cemetery, those joining in addition to tho
principal mourners before mentioned in-
cluding the Mayor (Ald, Geo, Coloman),
Mr. and Mrs. T. J. Byrnes, Messrs. W. S.
Chauney, J. Hopkins, M. Loughlin, T.
Loughlin, M. Mongan, J. Johnson (Gan-
main), J. T. Kelly, J. Beattie, P. M'Alister,
W, M'Alister, Leahey (The Rock), P.
Hopkins, J.Walker, F. Seymour, Ewan
Cameron, H. Cameron (junr.), J. Burgess,
G. Crisp (Messrs. A. A. Mourant and Co,),
O. Fuller, R. Higgins, W, Higgins, M.
M'Garry, T. Jones, F. H. Atherton, J.
Murray and C. Chapman. The remains were
interred in the family grave in the Catholic
portion of the cemetery, beside those of his
wife and two of his children. The bearers were
Messrs. M. Mongan, J. Burgess, F. Seymour,
W, Conway, E. Costain, and J. Castles. The
Rev. Father Campbell conducted the
funeral obsequies. Solemn Requeim Masses
for the repose of the soul of the deceased
were said on Tuesday morning in St.
Charles' Church, Waverley, by the Rev.
Father Kennedy, in the Campbelltown
Church by the Rev. Father Dunne, and in
St. Michael's Church, Wagga, by the Rev.
Father Campbell, and at Gosford by the
Rev. Father Kickham.
