He ...Died aged 91 in 1925 - that is a ripe old age. He surely had a life of varied interests.<br /><br />I note you call him a Liberal with a capital L. I guess his persuasions leant the way, even though the Liberal Party was not to exist for a number of years after his death. One of my relations was similarly inclined way back in 1887. However, he joined the Australian Natives' Association which supported Deakin.<br /><br />I also note the 'Australasian Post' which was the delight of my childhood, and the only magazine that my father religiously brought home, and which I read cover to cover. How I survived that induction I shall never know!<br /><br />Don't you just hate it when women are only referred to by the name and initials of their husband! Very hard to track them down, that alone do them justice in their own rights.<br /><br />Thanks for your continued excellent contributions to Taphophile Tragics, Gemma. I value your research very much.Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09513648613788716017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3467673506431999910.post-8897843025905944452012-06-19T09:10:55.043+10:002012-06-19T09:10:55.043+10:00An interesting man, that's for sure and what a...An interesting man, that's for sure and what a unique thing to do; importing a Japanese Tea House!<br />Thank you for visiting my page also.
