Deceased formerly lived for many years on the Bogan, near Forbes, where he had extensive station property, but during latter years, owing to adverse circumstances, he was compelled to relinquish these.

Deceased, who was 76 years of age, was one of the pioneers of the back country. His brother John took up country on the Lachlan, near Forbes, over 50 years ago.
