Funeral of Mr. George Dawes.

Mr Dawes was born at Marshall Mount, on the South Coast. He was 82 years of age, and was a son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Richard Dawes
He came north from Kangaloon and settled with his parents at Eltham, 64 years ago, when most of the eltham district was standing scrub. Mr Dawes had since resided on the farm which his father had acquired at that time. The deceased assisted with the clearing of the scrub, and had since been associated with the land. He married at Lismore, Miss Clara Ann Gregory, who survives him.
Mr Dawes was an ardent Methodist, a supporter and church officer. He was a trustee of the Cowlong Church. He was at one time actively associated with the Eltham P.P.U., and a delegate for that branch. He was a member of the Eltham M.U.I.O.O.F. and the Clunes Orange Lodge 230.
In addition to his widow, two sons and two daughters survive.
