LOWER BURDEKIN NOTES
I regretfully refer to the death of one of the pioneers at the North Mr. Joseph Malpass, who passed away at about two o'clock on Sunday morn ing, at his hotel (Hotel Malpass) at Home Hill. The deceased gentleman was seized with a stroke about two years ago, and since then his health has been very indifferent; culminating in his death. The late Mr. Malpass was born in the year 1855 at Dudley, Staffordshire. England, and married Miss Jane Marsh. He arrived at Townsville direct from England 47 years His young wife joining him two years later. He worked for a time on the Townsville jetty, and left Townsville for Woolgar, at the time of the Woolgar gold rush. Forty three years ago he went to Sandy Creek near Ravenswood and conducted the Sandy Creek Hotel. From there a few years later he went to Ravenswood as licensee of the Miners' Arms Hotel. About 13 years later he removed to Townsville, taking over the old Post Office Hotel. After a few years he returned to Ravenswood and again conducted the old Sandy Creek Hotel, and later the Exchange Hotel. At one time he was the owner of the Sandy Creek, the Miners' Arms and the Exchange Hotels. While licensee of the Exchange Hotel be took a 12 months' trip to the Old Country. 20 years ago Mr. Malpass decided to leave the North and purchased a fruit and dairy farm at Middle Ridge, on the Darling Downs. After a little over 12 months he sold the farm and returned to North Queensland, purchasing the lease of the Court House Hotel Cairns. After about 12 months he sold out and for some years conducted the North Gregory, Winton. About 12 years ago he removed to Ayr as the licensee of the Queen's Hotel, which be occupied for 6 years. He was also licensee of the Ayr Hotel for about a year and then lived privately for a few years. About two years ago he was granted a license for a hotel at Home Hill. The late Mr. Malpass has been a conspicuous figure in the North for nearly half century. He was a rugged, blunt type of man, with considerably more than the average fortitude and de- termination. He was a plucky speculator. The greater part of his life in the North was spent in Ravenswood, where in the palmy days of the field he had considerable interests. He leaves to mourn his loss a sorrowing wife, eleven grown up sons and daughters, numerous grandchildren, also a brother, Mr. W. H Malpass, of Bowen. His daughters and sons living are Mesdames Watson (Home Hill), G. Phillips, Frew, Farragar and Hook (Ayr), and Wiltshire (Townsville), and Messrs. W. Malpass (Alparoo Station), T. Malpass (Mackay), J. Malpass (Home Hill), S. Malpass (Townsville), and C Malpass (Cairns), all of whom are married and resident in North Queensland. His wife, all his children, his brother and several grandchildren were present with the deceased gentleman at the last. The late Mr. Malpass was accorded a Masonic funeral which moved from the Ayr Masonic Hall, a great number of Masonic brethren attending. The service at the graveside was conducted by the Reverend Michael, (Church of England), the Masonic service being read by by W. M. Harry Hicks of Lodge Ayr, of which lodge deceased was a member.
