Note 3: Daily Mercury (Mackay) 27 May 1912 ACCIDENT TO MR. C. PERRY. , A serious accident occurred at Mirani, yesterday to Mr. Charles Perry, an old and highly respected member of this community. Mr. Perry was spending the day with his son (Mr. James Perry) at Mirani, and in the fortnoon father and son went for a ride. About five miles from the township the horse Mr. Perry,, senr., was riding got its foot entangled in some barbed wire lying hidden in the grass, and in the animal's endeavours to rid himself of the obstacle "Mr. Perry was thrown heavily against a tree and severely injured. Mr. Jim Perry returned with all haste to Mirani, where he obtained assistance and brought the old gentleman into the town. The Ambulance having been summoned from Mackay, the injured man was conveyed to his home in Brisbane street. The accident happened at 1 o'clock, and the Ambulance returned at 6.30. At a late hour last night the patient was re ported to be doing as well as could be expected. Daily Mercury (Mackay) 28 May 1912 OBITUARY. It is our sad duty to chronicle the death of Mr. Charles Perry, who as reported yesterday, was thrown from a horse against a sapling at Mirani on Sunday, the injuries caus- ing death, which took place at 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon. The late Mr. Perry had reached the advanced age of 75 years, and up to the time of his accident was very active for one who had so long passed the al- lotted span of life. Deceased was associated with the history of Mac- kay for over 40 years, having arrived here overland with stock for Mr. G. F. Bridgmann. He was engaged in station work over the range for many years, and afterwards entered upon hotel keeping both at the top of the range and in Mackay. Some years ago he retired from active life, and has since been residing here privately. On Sunday he was visiting his son at Mirani, and riding quietly along when the accident took place. He was brought into town, but despite every care, medical and otherwise, he gradually sank,; and passed away at 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon-'. De ceased, who was a native of England, leaves a widow and two sons, Messrs.. James (Mirani), and George Vincent (Mackay). An only daughter (Mrs. G. Beresford) died a few years ago. A sorrowful circumstance is that de ceased's youngest son, Charles, was killed in the eighties in a similar manner, by being thrown from a horse against a tree on the top of the range. The funeral takes place at 11.30 this morning.
