I Mrs. Fanny Robinson, relict of the late Mr. Edward Robinson, of Kella lac, passed away on Sunday morning. After the death of her husband September, 1915, Mrs. Robinson was never quite the same, and as time went on her health continued to fail. For some months past she was under care and treatment in Melbourne for ner vous break-down, and only recently re turned home. Unfortunately there was no improvement in her condition. On Sunday morning Mrs. Robinson wan dered a short distance from the home, and was found dead. Deceased, who was 67 years of age, was one of the oldest residents of the district, having settled at Kellalac with her husband over 30 years ago. Of a kindly, sym pathetic, and hospitable nature, the late Mrs. Robinson was highly es teemed by the people of the district, and by all who knew her. In the strenuous days associated with farm ing activities in this part of the State she played a worthy part as wife and mother, giving constant and thought ful attention to the affairs of the home. She was also appreciated as a neighbor. Deceased leaves a grown- up family of four sons and three daughters, who are left in comfortable circumstances. One of the sons—Mr. Frederick Robinson—is on active ser vice with the Australian troops in Palestine. An inquiry into the cause of death was held before Mr. J. Camp bell, J.P., on Monday. The medical evidence showed that deceased had succumbed to heart failure, and a ver dict was returned accordingly. There was a large attendance at the funeral, which took place at the Warracknabeal cemetery on Tuesday afternoon. Rev. F. W. Coupe conducted the service at the grave. The coffin-bearers were Messrs. C. Morcom, J. A. Smith, W. Peters, W. Beggs, D. Rae, and G. W. Holland, and the pall-bearers Messrs. R. G. Griffiths, F. C. Schmidt, H. C. Parsons, M. O'Loughlin, J. Peters, C. R. Mackenzie, R. J. Beggs, and G. Armstrong.
