OBITUARY
Residents of this district and the cattle punching fraternity particularly, will regret to learn of the death of erstwhile stockman and station owner, John C. Mathews - Jack, one of this district's earliest cattlemen, with four brothers (all deceased) took up country known, or rather named by them, as Walgun, Tallawanni and Watch Point stations, situated beyond Ethel Creek in an easterly direction, some 35 to 40 years ago.
Old timers speak of Jack as being the doyen of bushmen, and as having a greater knowledge of the so-little-known territory bordering the desert out east than any other man.
Big in stature, jovial, and good company at all times, Jack will be missed and mourned by many in these parts.
