Friends will please accept this intimation. Daily Mercury (Mackay) 17 April 1918 Our Hatton correspondent writes: — The death of Mr. W. J. Wallace has removed another well-known local identity ... His familiar form, supported by a rough walking, stick, will be missed, for the old gentle man could never be persuaded to ride a horse, preferring to walk the five miles between his farm and Hatton. William John Wallace was born in County Down, Ireland, in 1847, and came to Mackay from his native town about 18 years ago . He was never out of Hatton pre vious to last January, when he took up his residence: with his son-in-law in Mackay, and he;died there, after a lingering illness. The deceased was highly respected. The only in terest taken in public affairs was in connection with the Presbyterian Church, of which he was a devot- ed member. He leaves a wife and six children,- all resident in the dis trict, viz., Mrs. Risseham (Mac kay), James, William John, Hugh' Robert and Annie May, all of Boon- gana, or Hatton to whom sympathy is given at their bereavement.
