The late Mrs. Conder was born in London in 1847, and went to live in Scotland at the ago of two. When six years old she was brought to Aus- tralia, and the voyage out was full of adventure, as the ship on which she travelled out, the Martabar, was ashore twice, and attacked by pirates. Upon arrival in Victoria, she lived for some time in that state, and in 1878 came to Tasmania for a few years. She returned to Victoria, but returned to Tasmania towards the end of the last century, and lived at Ringarooma for 36 years, where she was an ardent Red Cross worker dur- ing the Great War. Her late hus- band, Mr. J. H. Conder, died at Ringa- rooma 31 years ago. In 1920, when 73 years of age, the late Mrs. Conder left for trips to Africa and New Zealand, and on her return took up her resi- idence in Launceston, where she has lived for the past six years. She has been in ill-health for a considerable time. She was a parishioner of St. John's Church all the time she lived in Launceston, becoming first associat- ed with the church during her visit in 1878. She leaves two daughters, three sons and a stepson: one daugh- ter and two sons are dead. Those sur- viving her are Mrs. J.L. Fraser, of Africa, Mrs. E. D. Pritchard. of Rock- ampton, Queensland.
