PERDRIAU. — July 11, at John-street, Rookwood, Rebecca,

Funeral this afternoon, at 3 o'clock.
Note 4: Cumberland Argus and Fruitgrowers Advocate (Parramatta) 14 April 1915
Mr. Harold Perdriau, who died at Gran-
ville last Thursday, was apprenticed as a
boy in 1864 at Mort's Dock and Engineer-
ing Company. After seven years in those
works, he acted as advising engineer to his
father (the late Henry Perdriau), who
then had the Balmain ferries. Later he
became a partner in the Balmain ferries
with his brother Henry, (founder of the
Perdriau Rubber Company). On the fer-
ries being formed into a public company,
the late Mr. Perdriau established an en-
gineering works with Mr. T. West, under
the style of Perdriau, West and Company.
They purchased the enormous punt that
had been in use for placing the spans of
the Hawkesbury Bridge in position, had
it towed to Sydney, and converted into a
floating dock, (now Drake's Dock), and
designed and constructed engines for the
Balmain Ferry Company, and many other
firms. He became managing engineer for
Henderson and Mansfield on the Clarence
River, and later engineer at the Sydney
Meat Preserving Company at Auburn.
Then he joined the Clyde Engineering
Company as foreman, and was there until
his retirement a few months ago. Mr.
Perdriau was a Sunday-school teacher
early in life, and he retained his religious
conviction throughout. His mother, who
has passed her 90th year, is still living,
and resides with her son Henry at Drum-
moyne.
