WEDDING BELLS.

LOITERTON-RAYMOND.

Stockinbingal wore quite an animated appearance on Wednesday, the 2nd instant, the occasion being the marriage of Miss Iris Raymond, daughter of Mrs. G. Folcher, of ' Pine Shade, ' Gundibendyal, and the late Edward Raymond, of 'Balowra,' Cootamundra, to Kenneth, second son of Mr. and Mrs. John Loiterton, of 'Mount Hope,' Stockinbingal. At the appointed hour there must have been quite 150 friends of the young couple gathered within St. Joseph's R. C. Church, where the ceremony was per- formed by the Rev. Father Slattery.

The bride, who entered the church on the arm of her step-father, was becomingly attired in white satin, overdress of ninon, trimmed with pearls. She also wore a wreath of orange blossom and a silk tulle veil, and carried a bouquet of white crysanthemums and asparagus fern, gifts of the bridegroom.

The bridesmaids were Miss Eileen Morton and Miss Katie Molloy (cousin of bride). The former was attired in whitei satin, overdress of ninon; large white chip straw hat, trimmed with black and white plumes, and she wore a gold Nellie Stewart bangle, the gift of the bridegroom. The latter wore white silk; chip straw hat, trimmed with white silk and cord, and her gold bamboo bangle was the gift of the bridegroom. They each carried bouquets of white and pale blue flowers, satin streamers, and asparagus fern. Miss Gertie Raymond (sister of bride) and Miss Stella Carberry, who acted as trainbearers, wore white silk dresses and gold crosses and chains, gifts of the bridegroom.

The bridegroom was attended by Mr. Jas. Loughurst as best man, and Mr. F. Towers as groomsman.

As the bridal party left the church, the wedding march was played by Miss O. Young.

THE BREAKFAST.

After a short interval the company reassembled in the spacious Commercial Hall, where the host and hostess, Mr. and Mrs. Ellwood, had prepared the wedding breakfast, the beautifully decorated tables being laden with a most delectable menu. The cake, which was a beautiful three-decker, was the product of Mr. W. Tubman.

After full justice had been done the many good things provided, Mr. E. V. Begley, in a neat and happy speech, proposed the health of the newly wedded couple, to whom he paid warm tribute.

Mr. W. G. Noble, in his usual characteristic and humorous style, ably supported the toast, as did also Messrs E. Woodhouse and D. Mulcahy.

The bridegroom, in responding, thanked all for their many kind expressions towards himself and wife, which they very much appreciated.

'The Bridesmaids' was proposedby Mr. P. J. Green, and suitably acknowledged by Mr. Jas. Longhurst.

' The Parents of the Bride and Bridegroom' was proposed by Mr. John Neville. In doing so he expressed his pleasure at being honoured with such an important toast. He had not known them as long as some of thoso present, but for the time he had done so he made up for it in friendship. He added his good wishes. Mr. Folster suitably replied, expressing his thanks for the manner in which the toast had been proposed and received.

'The Chairman' having been duly proposed and honoured, the bride cut the cake, which was then handed round.

The happy couple left by the evening train for Sydney, where the honeymoon will be spent, the bride's travelling dress being a navy blue coat and skirt, navy velvet hat, relieved with white flumes, red berries and autumn leaves.

Note20 or 22 Jun 1990Kenneth Llewellen Loiterton appeared in an article in The Examiner, Moruya, NSW, AustraliaG, 20 or 22 Jun 1990 as follows: Lou Loiterton 100 Years and still going strong.
A man who lived most of his life in the Temora District celebrated his 100th birthday recently. He is Lou Loiterton, now residing in a Wagga nursing home.
The secret of longevity, according to centenarian Lou Loiterton, is eating and sleeping and a happy married life.
Lou celebrated his 100th birthday at the Wendy Hucker Nursing Home recently with his brother, two sisters and many of his eleven surviving children, 24 grandchildren and his great grandchildren around him.
Telegrams and letters with best wishes arrived for Lou from The Queen, the Governor-General Bill Hayden, Member for Wagga Joe Schipp and Member for Hume Wal Fife.
Born in a bark hut, Kenneth Llewellyn Loiterton was the second oldest child in a family of five girls and six boys.
His young life was spent on the family farm at Stockinbingal. He married a local girl, Iris Raymond, in 1913, and they moved to a property of their own in the area.
"I miss Iris. She was a wonderful person and we had a very happy marriage", said Lou.
Alan Loiterton was a school boy when he used to visit his brother Lou and Iris on their farm. He is now living at The Haven in Wagga and spends time with Lou every day.
"We were never really boys together", said Allan.
"But we play cards and chat together now."
Lou has two surviving sisters, Millicent Dixon from Salamander Bay and Doris Sanderson from Batteau Bay.
"If you average out our ages we have 90 each," said Mrs Dixon.
Lou and Iris Loiterton had 12 children. They left their farm in 1924 and Lou was employed until retirement with Vacuum Oil (later to become Mobil Oil), at Temora.
A top tennis player, Lou was champion of the Stockinbingal Tennis Club for many years.
While residents of Temora, where they spent many years, both Mr and Mrs Loiterton were very active in the community, especially in tennis circles where both were recognised among the town's best players.
After moving to Wagga, he became an active member of the Wagga Bowling Club.
The Loitertons came to live in The Haven in 1960. Iris Loiterton has since deceased and Lou moved into the Wendy Hucker Nursing Home in 1981.

lived at Cullinga after their marriage. Soon after they married George had a bad fall from a horse which resulted in the loss of an eye. George worked on a property called "The Meadows". He later share farmed on Donald Mackay's property and the seven children grew up and went to school from there. When it was sold they moved to live at "Wargunyah", a house at Wallendbeen opposite the Presbyterian Church. He then went share farming on Bert Boxsell's property, "Cherrygrove", and during one year was burnt out in a bushfire that began at Jindalee and went as far as Harden. The harvester and horses were saved by driving them onto a ploughed paddock nearby. George retired after share farming on Bassingthwaighte's property "Allowrie" and he and Emma lived there for the rest of their lives. They had 9 children, 5 boys and 4 girls.

Other Details

LabelDateDetails
NoteIn 1898, seven year old Steve was a pupil at the West Jindalee School. His sisters Eliza and Emma and brothers Syd and Jim were also attending the same school. At this stage Steve's father had a 150 acre property located one and a half miles from the school. This was somewhere in the West Jindalee area.

The family later moved to "Forest Home" about three miles from Wallendbeen on the Old Gundagai Road. It is thought that Steve also attended the school at Jindalee indicating that the family had moved away from the West Jindalee area at this time. Perhaps this is when they moved to "Forest Home". The two youngest children, Ivy and Will were attending the Jindalee School in 1920. Steve and his brothers Don and Jim were known to wag school quite often, preferring to spend their time on the reserve rather that in the classroom. There was one story that Steve used to relate to the family regularly and he would end up in fits of laughter while telling it. On one occasion, on their way home from school, Steve and Jim decided to indulge in a little target practice by hurling pads of cow manure at a passing train at Jindalee. They were caught at it and ended up in trouble as a result. No doubt it wasn't the first time they had done this and it probably wasn't the last. Steve left school when he was about 12 years old to work on the farm.

Steve and his brother Jim later moved to Muttama to farm. They were wheat farmers, using horse drawn ploughs, on Armitage's property of "Sheep Station Creek" which was next to the Douglas property of "Hillside". The property was about 2 miles from Muttama. They were share farmers with the owner, and were not too popular with him when they ring barked two large gum trees to clear a paddock for ploughing.

It was obviously during his time working at Muttama that he met Mary. Mary's sister Ett remembered the day Steve arrived with his horse and sulky to take Mary to the Cootamundra Show. The pony was a little bit wild and used to rear up on its back legs when it was urged to move off. Eventually the horse managed to get things right and they disappeared in a cloud of dust down the road.

In March 1916 Steve and Jim sold by auction all of their horses and farm machinery as they intended enlisting for active service. In April of 1916 a farewell social function was held in Muttama to honour the local men who had volunteered for active service. Steve was one of those present, and farewelled at the banquet, but for some reason did not enlist. His brother Jim did enlist and go to the war but apparently was not at the farewell. No-one seems to know why Steve didn't end up in the army with his brother Jim.

Steve and Mary were married on 12 July of this same year. It is thought that they may have farmed with Steve's father Charles for a while after this but they farmed on the "Douglas Park" property at Jindalee until early in 1919. The fact that the notice refers to his farming plant as almost new is an indication that he had not perhaps been on this property for long. As indicated in the notice Steve was about to give up farming and try his hand at something else.

Steve and Mary together with their first child, Clinton who was not yet two years old, moved into Cootamundra during 1919 and were to live at 38 Sutton Street for the next forty five years. The other three children were born in Cootamundra. Steve conducted a hire car business in Cootamundra. A hire car was one of the few alternatives if you had to get to a town not linked to Cootamundra by rail. A great deal of the work involved taking people to the horse races and Steve used to drive bookies to such places as Tumut and Gundagai. The bookies often stayed overnight and Steve would bring them back the next day. He also conveyed commercial travellers and used to drive one of the local doctors about quite a bit. He often took a girl to Frampton to visit her boyfriend and had to wait in the car while "they made love half the night". On one occasion, as he was crossing the "top gates" his passenger opened the newspaper and realised that he had won the lottery. That was as far as that particular trip went as they returned to celebrate.

Early in his hire car days, Steve had an accident involving a collision with a horse. He was driving along Temora Road on the way to the races and had to cross Freer's Bridge over the Muttama Creek. It had been a wet year and people walking to the races had to walk up onto the roadway in order to get on the bridge and cross the creek. As a result there were a lot of people on the bridge at the one time. A jockey was riding a horse across the bridge and leading another. Something frightened the second horse and it pulled back and the jockey had to let it go. The horse collided with Steve' a car and was so badly injured that it had to be destroyed. Steve was successfully sued by the owner and had to pay up. This must have resulted in a considerable financial blow to the family. The judge claimed that the jockey had no control over the horse but that Steve had control over his car and was therefore liable.

The car he drove in his business was a Hudson Super Six and the fare was about sixpence per mile. The car was able to accommodate the driver and seven passengers. The front seat held two passengers, the rear seat three, and there were two fold down seats at the rear of the front seat. The car was large and heavy and had narrow solid rubber tyres. The hood was made of canvas and had celluloid side and rear windows. Steve conducted this business before the time of petrol bowsers and obtained his petrol supplies in 4 gallon tins. These came packed in wooden crates, each crate containing two cans. When empty the petrol cans were useful for all sorts of things. They made quite good buckets and could be cut and opened out to make a washing tub and drying rack for dishes. In January and February, 1920 the following advertisement appeared in the Cootamundra Herald:


MOTOR SERVICE


MR.S. LOITERTON wishes to notify the public that he now has the 'phone on to private house, No 192. All Orders for Cars promptly attended to.


At one stage there was a dispute between the hire car owners and the local taxi drivers. There were no clearly defined guidelines as to where the hire cars could ply their trade as distinct from the taxis. On one occasion Mary's father organised Steve and another driver to take the Douglas family to Burrinjuck. This may have been around 1930 when electricity from Burrinjuck Dam was about to be supplied to the Cootamundra area. Quite a few of the locals made the trip to see the source of this new and convenient form of energy.

Conditions in the little house in Sutton Street were a little more primitive than we are used to today. Kerosene lamps were the main source of lighting up until the early 1930's. Electricity wasn't connected to the house until a couple of years after it was available in Cootamundra. A copper with a wood fire below it was used to heat water for baths. The hot water was then transferred by bucket into a large metal bath tub. Bathing was, as a result, generally a weekly event rather than a nightly one. When the copper was later replaced with a chip heater, life became considerably easier. A water safe was used to keep food cool and these were later replaced by ice boxes. More efficient kerosene or gas refrigerators were to in turn replace the ice box. Perhaps the one luxury that the family enjoyed was having a car. Apart from those owned by some farmers and local businessmen there were few cars about. Virtually no-one living and working in the town owned a car.

Steve conducted his hire car business for about ten years, but with the onset of the depression few people could afford to hire cars and he had to look for another way of earning a living. During the depression he worked on the water pipeline from Jugiong across the Cowangs. The job involved digging the trench for the pipeline. All the digging was of course done by hand and a specified length of trench had to be completed each day. This made life difficult if you happened to come across a rocky section of ground.

Later, Steve worked "lumping wheat" at Shepherd's Siding which is between Junee and Wagga. His son Clinton often helped him and occasionally was allowed to drive the ute back home. A six cylinder Buick that Steve had used for a time in the hire car business had been converted to a ute and used for carting wheat. It must have been very hard work for a small man. Clinton would move the bags of wheat to the side of the waggon and Steve would then carry them one at a time on his shoulder up the "steps" of bags and add them to the top of the stack. When the stack reached full height the base would be extended by one bag and the process continued. Later the wheat would be reloaded onto small trucks and horse drawn waggons for transport to the silo. The trucks were only small and carried about one ton which amounted to 25 bags of wheat.

During his life, Steve was a keen shooter. He owned his own shotgun at the age of thirteen and frequently spent time around the local dams and paddocks after ducks and rabbits. After the crops had been harvested there were always plenty of quail amongst the stubble. He also achieved considerable successes in competitions. He is known to have taken part in clay pigeon shooting competitions when in his early twenties and perhaps also before that. In July 1918 Steve was in a competition which carried £50 total prize money. He and six others won £5 each in the initial part of the competition and then had to shoot off for the remaining money. Steve received a special mention as "having shot extra well, grossing 34 birds out of 37 released to him on the first barrel". In November of that same year he took part in a shoot that consisted of a number of different types of competitions. He was equal first in the "5 Bird Starling Match", the "No. 1 Sweep" and the "£1 Pigeon Sweep". In the big event of the day, the "£50 Pigeon Match" he took out the major share of the prize money by winning £15. Steve also won other prizes in shooting competitions including a number of sashes and a canteen of cutlery. He travelled to Melbourne in about 1952 or 1953 to compete. Apparently the other competitors were more than amazed at Steve fronting up to the competition with his old hammer action shotgun when they all had automatic or semi-automatic guns.

Steve loved the outdoors and his other favourite pastime was undoubtedly fishing. Fishing stories and stories of fishing trips were commonly related and fishing was certainly something that Steve knew much about and was also good at. One photo shows him in his early thirties in the back yard with his catch of Murray Cod. A friend and five year old son Dudley are also in the photo and they were displaying the result of their fishing trip. Dad remembers them building a boat before this trip. It was little more than a large box and the joints had been sealed with pitch. The fishing technique used was a simple one, and involved stringing a line between two trees in the river. Large hooks were suspended from this line and baited with birds and pieces of rabbit. The weights of the fish are written onto the surface of the photo, the smallest a mere thirty pounds, followed by a forty five pounder with the largest one weighing in at seventy two pounds. The biggest fish was somewhat larger than Dudley. One story that is remembered and told is that of the fire in the tent up at Burrinjuck. Clinton, Dudley and Steve were all off checking their set lines around the bank of the dam. They had pitched their tent in an open area and had a fire slowly burning away some distance from it. Somehow the fire managed to find its way from where it was, across in the direction of the tent, perhaps by igniting leaves or dry grass on the ground. By the time they discovered what had happened the tent was well alight. Their bedding was also affected and the blankets had holes burned in them. When they returned home Mary cut the good pieces out of the blankets and stitched them together and these were the only blankets that they were allowed to take fishing with them on future trips. The smell of burnt wool stayed with the blankets.

Steve finished his working life on the Shire Council. He mainly worked with the road crews and drove a large truck. He worked there until his retirement and he and Mary moved to live in Batehaven in 1965. Steve apparently wasn't too keen on the idea at first but was talked into it by other members of the family.

Living on the south coast, he was able to spend a considerable amount of his time indulging in one of his favourite pastimes, fishing. He remained a keen gardener and must have enjoyed the longer growing season. He had no trouble at all getting ripe tomatoes by Christmas and he was always keen to have a better garden than his brother Don who of course had moved to Batemans Bay some years before. Steve died following a heart attack on 2 January 1974.3

LabelDateDetails
ArticleIn March of 1916, Jim and brother Steve, organised an auction to sell off all of their horses and farm machinery. They had been farming at Sheep Station Creek, two miles from Muttama. In April of the same year, a farewell social function was held in Muttama to farewell the local boys who had volunteered for active service. A banquet was held in the Commercial Hotel at Muttama. The list of those present includes S. Loiterton but there is no mention of James. Oddly enough, James was the one who ended up going overseas, whereas, for some unknown reason, Steve was to remain at home.

Jim enlisted the following month at the age of 23 years and joined the 56th Battalion. He was only a small person, being five feet six inches tall and weighing only ten stone. He had a fair complexion with fair hair and blue eyes.

In August 1916, Jim, who had been in the local camp, was in the Goulburn camp and was about to return home on final leave. On 15 September 1916 a farewell for Jim was held at his parent's residence, "Forest Home". His friends and relatives were there "……….to give him a good rousing send-off on his way to the front. A most enjoyable evening was spent - dancing being kept up until the early hours. Jim was wished every success by old friends, and one person was anxious that he should bring back the Kaiser's scalp. The well known hospitality of Mr. and Mrs. Loiterton was well to the fore, and Mrs. Loiterton excelled herself in producing dainties. We all join in giving Jim our heartiest plaudits in his manly action in proceeding to the front to battle for his home and country. He left here on Tuesday night's mail".

On 7 October, Jim embarked from Sydney on board the "Ceramic", arriving at Plymouth six weeks later. A month after arrival he was admitted to Fovant Military Hospital in Wiltshire, where he was placed under observation for tonsillitis. He was discharged three weeks later, and on 8 February 1917, was off to France aboard the "SS Invieta". A mere month later Jim was back in hospital, this time in France, and suffering from a scalp wound and concussion. He was only there for 6 days before rejoining his unit. Just a few weeks after that, he was again sick and back in hospital in Rouen where he was to spend several weeks. It appears that confusion reigned during that particular time as there were conflicting reports. At some stage, Jim was thought to have been missing in action and believed killed, and two weeks later is reported as rejoining his unit. A week after that he was discovered in hospital, where he had apparently been all this time.

In May of 1917, Jim was wounded in action at Bulogne. He received gunshot wounds to both thighs and to his left hand. He was shipped back to England and spent more than 3 months at the Brook War Hospital. He was sent back to Australia aboard the "Ulysses", arriving on 13 November and was discharged a month later. In May of the following year, Private James Henry Loiterton of Jindalee was among the 29 soldiers who were present on the stage of the Cootamundra Town Hall to be welcomed home.

Jim was to remain single, and for many years managed a fleet of fishing boats at Woolgarlowe, on Burrinjuck Dam. He lived a quiet, hermit-like existence there until he died in 1946.3

Other Details

LabelDateDetails
NoteDon was born at Wallendbeen and lived there for the early part of his life. It is not certain if he attended the West Jindalee school as his older brothers and sisters had done at least up to 1898. The family may have moved to "Forest Home" at some time after this which would have meant that the Jindalee or Wallendbeen schools would have been much closer. Don and his older brothers Steve and Jim often wagged school, preferring to spend their time on the reserve.

Don and Jim at one stage worked for George Forsyth, sewing bags of wheat at harvest time and looking after the horse team.

For some years Don ran a garage in Wallendbeen, which he built in 1928. The garage which looked little more than a large galvanised iron shed still stood in King Street, opposite the post office in 1988. It had the word "Garage" in large black letters on the back and side walls. Don would walk from his mother's house in Grey Street to and from work in the garage each day. In 1930, while still at the garage, he advertised his Overland car for sale for £55. Later that year he returned from Sydney with a new Whippet car. During the Depression, car owners still wanted their cars repaired but weren't so keen to pay.

Don was a keen tennis player and at various stages during the late 20's and early 30's received mentions as a member of the Wallendbeen team. He excelled at the game and continued playing into his 70's.

Don later left the garage and bought a property near Muttama to return to what he liked doing best. It was at this stage that he met Ett, as his property wasn't that far from "Hillside".

At some later stage, Don purchased the "Rosemeadow" property near Cootamundra. Don and Ett moved to Billimari near Canowindra after their marriage in 1950 and took up a 300 acre wheat and sheep farm. Ian Loiterton remembers visiting this farm when he was about 14 years old. Don was a tinkerer and Ian recalls being fascinated by some of the things that he had made. He could make just about anything out of bits and pieces he found lying around. Ian remembers him showing him a homemade door catch, and a gear for one of his machines that he had cut from a steel shaft with a hack saw. Ian was even more impressed when he discovered that Don had done all of this with only one good hand. His other hand had fallen victim to the careless use of a chaff cutter which had relieved him of its fingers.

Apart from being inventive, Don was also persistant. At one stage he had an old metal wheeled tractor that he decided to convert to rubber tyres. He bought the tyres and rims and then began to modify the wheels to suit. This involved heating the spokes to bend them and then drilling holes in them in order to be able to fasten the rims. Don apparently ended up breaking numerous drill bits in the process of drilling the hard steel, but was determined that this was the way that he was going to complete the job.

Like Steve, Don was a keen shooter. On one occasion his dog was in full pursuit of a rabbit and about to catch it. The rabbit, however, was heading directly for its burrow and stood a more than fair chance of escaping the dog's mouth. Just as the rabbit was about to enter the burrow, Don raised his gun and shot it -right in front of the dog's nose!

After retiring, Don and Ett sold up and went to live at Bateman's Bay. Even though the house was a very basic one, Don wasn't too fussed with trying to change things and thought it quite adequate as it was. He was content to persevere with a chip heater in the bathroom at a time when most of us would never think of trying to do without a modern hot water system.

Don broke his hip after a fall in later life and didn't enjoy full health after that time. He died after a short illness.

Other Details

LabelDateDetails
NoteFrederick Joseph Loiterton was born in Wallendbeen and spent the early part of his life there. He appears to have been involved in farming activities also. In February 1927, Fred and his partner Rupert Bodell , both regarded as experts when it came to sheep crutching, were reported to have reached a tally of 12,000 to 15,000 - enough to make news in the town of Wallendbeen.

At one stage Fred owned a type of motorcycle called a Neracar. This rather strange mode of transport had a single cylinder 221cc motor and a car-like chassis. It was designed to combine car-like comfort with the versatility of two wheels and although it had excellent road holding and stability, it was never really a success. It was manufactured in 1923.

Fred didn't marry until he was 40 years old, and his wife Edith (nee Cropper) died eight years after at the age of only 30. Fred was later to marry Edith's sister Nell the year after she arrived in Australia from Lancashire. At the time of his first marriage, Fred was living at "Springbrook", Wallendbeen. He and Nell owned a farm at Yeo Yeo. They retired from farming in 1952 and came to live in Cootamundra.5

The bride entered the church on the arm of her brother, Mr. Norman Armour, who subsequently gave her away, and she looked charming in a frock of London blue wool sheer, with a hat, of summer weight felt to tone. She carried a bouquet of flame sweet peas, carnations, and Scotch heather.

The bride was attended by Miss A. J. Hoey, who looked very becoming in a frock of dusty pink wool sheer, with a hat of summer weight felt to tone. The bridesmaid carried a bouquet of coral sweet peas, carnations, and Scotch heather.

The bridegroom was attended by Mr. Keith W. Armour as best man, and the Rev. R. C. Russell officiated.

After the ceremony the reception was held at the Cosy Corner Cafe where the bride's mother received the guests. The Rev. R. C. Russell presided, and the usual toasts were honored.

The honeymoon is being spent on a motor tour, and the future home of Mr. and Mrs. Loiterton will be at Wallendbeen.3

ELECTROCUTED

WILLIAM LOITERTON OF WALLENDBEEN

There was a tragic happening at Wallendbeen yesterday afternoon. William Lolterton, aged. 30, a married man with a family of four, was cleaning out the gutters of the roof of the cottage occupied by his aged mother, the widow of the late Charles Loiterton, of Wallendbeen, when he slipped. To save himself from falling off the roof he grasped the electric wires leading into the home from the Burrinjuck service, got caught with the current, and could not get free fom the wire. His screams for assistance attracted the attention of the golfers on the course alongside. It was during the afternoon tea in connection with the season's official opening. The men ran over to assist. Others were also soon on the scene. One man, Mr. Cecil Connors, cut the wires with an axe to shut off the current from the unfortunate victim, who was still alive.

The ambulance and a doctor were summoned from Cootamundra, and the electric substation at Cootamundra was phoned. The ambulance with the doctor aboard, did the 12 miles in 12 minutes; and Messrs. Slater and Lucas ??f from the sub-station, were there in ??? minutes.

Meanwhile Messrs. Mormon and Connors, of Wallendbeen, who had had ambulance training, took charge of the case, and gave directions to the willing helpers. Using the ladder by which Mr. Loiterton had gone up to the roof, they got him down, and laid him out. He was unconscious, but still breathing, although the current had passed through his body for some minutes; and they worked to restore animation until the arrival of Ambulance Superintendent Moorhouse and the doctor. The latter continued their efforts, but in vain, until 10 minutes to 7, and the body was then brought to the Cootamundra District Hospital.

The accident had happened at about 4.45.

Deceased was born at Cootamundra. His father at time was farming. A member of a very esteemed family, descendants of the district pioneers, he followed shearing, and his brothers Fred and Ken made a clever trio in demand at the woolsheds around. All the brothers are handy men on the farm and in other spheres. For the last six months William had been renovating the home of Mr. Dixon, of "Bramshott," Wallendbeen, and, having a few days off from there, he was doing odd things for his mother, aged 71.

Mother and son had separate homes adjoining, but facing the two side streets off the main road which runs out from Wallendbeen towards Murrumburrah. To the veteran the fatality is a dreadful shock, as to all the other relatives and to Wallendbeen and district.

Deceased married Miss Oriel Dacey, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Dacey of Wallendbeen, who are also links with the earliest settlers about there; and there are three daughters and a son. The latt??????????? old and eldest girl is 12.

Brothers of the deceased are Steve (Cootamundra), ???????? Ken and Sid (Wallendbeen), Jim (Burrinjuck); sisters, May (Mrs. Roy Duffy, Cootamundra), Maude (Mrs. Len Troy, Lake Cargelligo), Emma (Mrs. George Ceeney, Wallendbeen), Eliza (Mrs. Geo. Adams, Taralga, Vic. and Ivy (Mrs. Geo. Mayne, Wallendbeen).

The Cootamundra Coroner (Mr. J. T. Kenehan), after formalities this morning, fixed the inquest for next Tuesday.

The interment took place in the Anglican cemetery at Wallendbeen this afternoon, following a service in the church.2

WORKERS' COMPENSATION COMMISSION

(YESTERDAY.) Before his Honor, Judge Moffatt.

Loiterton .v. Loiterton

In the matter of determination between Oriel Gwendoline Cecelia Mary Loiterton and Mary Anne Loiterton.

The claim was for £900 compensation, arising out of the death, by electrocution, of William Loiterton, husband of the applicant, and son of the respondent. Mr. Levine, of Sydney instructed by Mr. Gilbert), appeared for the applicant, and Mr. Kinsey (of Kinsey and Callan, Cootamundra), appeared for the respondent.

At the conclusion of our report in yesterday's issue the applicant was still in the witness box. The evidence continued:
His Honor: 'What did you call her?
Witness: 'Mother.' I just asked for Bill's wages. His mother said that no arrangements for Bill to work there had been made. I told her that she told my husband that she was going to pay him 12/- a day. I could not get any satisfaction from her. Her at titude all through has been that she made no arrangements to employ and pay my husband.
His Honor: It is a pity some settlement could not be arranged.
Mr. Kinsey: We have no suggestions in that regard.
Witness: My husband told me my mother always paid him, even for chopping the wood. My husband was very fond of his mother, but he even charged her for that. Sometimes he would only cut a few sticks.
His Honor: He would not charge for that, surely?
Witness: Yes.
By Mr. Kinsey: He was paid for everything he did, whether the job lasted five minutes or ten days. At the time of the accident, Mrs. Loiterton was not carrying on any trade or business. My mother and I went to see Mr. Maxwell, and went into the whole matter. It was discussed at length. He gave me advice. As my solicitor, he wrote Mrs Loiterton. The letter asked if Mrs. Loiterton was prepared to give me any material as sistance, towards the maintenance of my children. There was no mention of a claim.
His Honor: . It could have been just a friendly appeal.
Witness: Mr. Maxwell told me that he did get a reply to his letter.
By Mr. Kinsey: I did not see the copy of the letter you produce. It was after I saw Mr. Maxwell that I wrote to the Conciliation and Information Bureau of the Workers' Compensation Commission. On my behalf, they wrote to Mrs. Loiterton, and I heard from that department the reply that was made. Ultimately, I got Mr. Gilbert to act for me, and it was in April, 1939, that I instituted proceedings through Mr. Gilbert. I did not ask Mr. Maxwell to do anything, but make arrangements with the Commission, who told me they could not get enough evidence. I first saw Mr. Gilbert about December. That would be about three months after I heard from the Commission. I do not know the reason for the delay from December to April in the lodging of a claim. I did not write to Mr. Gilbert, asking the reasons for the delay. I was not present at Mrs. Loiterton's place when there was some talk of painting the house. I do not know anything about my husband arranging to return to Mr. Dixon's to do some crutching. The only time I have been to I see my mother-in-law since my, husband died was when I went to ask for my husband's wages.
His Honor: There would be naturally bad feeling from the time Mrs. Loiterton received the solicitor's letter. At this stage the court was adjourned until 2 o'clock.

Witness, continuing under cross- examination: I do not want to correct my statement that my husband had painted the house two years before the accident.
Mr. Levine said that he admitted that Mr. Kinsey had replied to Mr. Maxwell, and that the latter had received the letter.
Witness continued: I did get a let- ter from Mr. Maxwell, saying that he did not receive a reply to his letter to the respondent's solicitors. I did not receive a letter from Mr. Maxwell stating that Mrs. Loiterton denied liability, or that, owing to her position, could not give any financial assistance at the time being, and any that she might give later would be purely voluntary. Mr. Maxwell did not tell me that he had heard that my husband was not employed by Mrs. Loiterton. Long before he left Mr. Dixon's, he promise his mother to do the painting work.
To Mr. Levine: After my husband's death my mother-in-law did not call to see me. I did not receive any messages of sympathy from her. His shearing work did not take up the whole of the year. For the rest of the year he was an odd-job man. As compared with the rest of the family, my husband's financial position was much worse than the rest of the family. At the time of his death we were in debt. I say again that my husband was paid for every bit of work my husband did for his mother.

Elsie May Dacey, mother of the applicant, deposed: I live near respondent's home, and pass it every morning on the way for my mail. The day after the funeral I called at Mrs. Loiterton's back door with my daughter, to ask for deceased's tools. Mrs. Loiterton, sen., said that the tools were up at the shed, and Mr. Fred. Loiterton would give them to my daughter.
By Mr. Kinsey: I have never seen any other members of the family doing anything about the place except cutting wood. I would say they were good workers. Deceased painted the house twice before his death. I did not go to the house, with my daughter, leaving her at the gate. I did not ask Mrs. Loiterton for 2/6. I was collectlng for supper for a dance, and Mrs. Loiterton's daughter, Mrs. Wayne, gave me 2/6, outside the house, towards the supper. I went with my daughter to see Mr. Maxwell, and told him all the facts I knew about the case. I think my daughter did her own correspondence with the Commission.
Applicant recalled: During the last period when my husband was working for my mother, he would leave for work at 7 o'clock each morning. He returned at 12.30 for lunch, staying for about half an hour. He would return about 5 o'clock each evening.
By Mr. Kinsey: Did you watch your husband working all the time.
Witness: No, how could I? This concluded the case for the applicant.
Mr. Kinsey: I submit there is no case to answer.
His Honor: I never non-suit in these cases.

Respondent deposed: I am a widow, residing in Gray street, Wallendbeen, and the mother of William Thomas Loiterton, who was killed at my home on June 8, 1938. My son came to see me every time he got a chance. Two other single boys lived at the house with me. They did odd jobs around the house for me. They were often away. They would cut the hedges, cut the wood, do the gardening, etc. My son Sid often came to see me. He did some odd painting for me. None of the other boys ever did a job as big as painting the house. It would take a week to paint the house. One Sunday morning my son said he would, come and paint the house in his spare time. He said he was waiting for Mr. Dixon to ring him to go back and crutch some sheep. He said he would do some work at my place, so he could answer my 'phone when Mr. Dixon rang. He walked round the house with me, and pointed out things that wanted doing. He said that if I got the paints ready he would come in and do the work in his spare time. I did not pay him for any of his work. He was a good worker, and he was always wanting to do something for me. My son first mentioned the painting work. He said, "Mum, if you get the paint, I will do the house in my spare time. I gave no instructions to my son about how he would do the work, or when he was to start. It would be about a week after the talk that he came to the house, and started working on the fence and the hedge. I was not prepared to spend money on having the house painted. He did not ask for any payment during the job. My boys would not have taken any payment if I had offered it to them. I did not pay him for any of the odd jobs he did from time to time. He never, asked for any payment. Mrs. Dacey came to my back door and Mrs Will Loiterton stopped up at the back gate. This was the day after the funeral. I said that I had never agreed to pay any wages to my son. It would be six or seven years before my son's death that the house was painted previously. My daughter- in-law did not mention any rate of wages to me. Nothing, like that was ever said.
By Mr. Levine: My son always seemed to have enough money to carry on with when he was not working. He would be as well off as my other sons. His widow's position now is not too bad. The four children are looked after allright. I have not been to see my daughter-in-law since the accident. I used to go and see her before the accident. I did not say, to my son,'"I like the color of Mr. Dixon's place. Will your paint my house the same?'" My daughter, Mrs Wayne, works at the store. I cannot remember any trouble about getting the paint. I did not know that my son Ken had deceased insured. Deceased worked for him at harvesting time. I did not know about Sid's wife calling to, see Mrs. Loiterton. I know nothing about the family having a conference, or Mrs. Sid Loiterton telling deceased's wife to keep quiet about the accident. I cannot remember when I first saw my solicitor. I do not remember any suggestion of making a claim for insurance through my son Ken. I cannot remember getting a letter from Mr. Maxwell. I have never seen the compensation claim form produced. I do not know how much my daughter-in-law is claiming in this court today. I do not read much. I am nearly 73 years of age. Mrs. Mayne does all my mail. I have never employed anyone in my life. Mrs. Wayne has not employed anyone for me. I did not know that my son was going to erect a fence.
To Mr. Kinsey: In connection with this legal business now before the court, I have left the handling of the matter to the members of my family.
Mrs. Ivy Mayne gave corroborative evidence.
By Mr. Levine: To my knowledge my mother did not pay anyone for any work around the place. Mr. Dyde, a carrier, was paid for carting some posts. My brothers have a small truck, but they were away working at that time. William started work on the Friday, and was electrocuted on the Wednesday. I was there all the time when my brother William had a conversation with my mother. I did not discuss this case at the lunch hour. When I received the first letter from Mr. Maxwell I took the letter to Mr. Kinsey. Those at home discussed the matter. I do not know anything about Ken insuring William, or Mrs. Sid going to see Mrs. Loiterton. There was no attempt to keep the accident quiet. The matter of compensation was not discussed. There was a mis take in the paint for the house. Wil liam had been talking about the color he had used on Mr. Dixon's house. When I ordered the paint I made a mistake with the color card, and got a color which was a shade darker. The house did need painting. William was waiting to go back to Mr. Dixon's, and he said he had told Mr. Dixon to ring our home. Until a fortnight before the accident I was on friendly terms with the applicant. I know her four children very well. I have never heard a fee of 12/- a day mentioned.
Sidney Loiterton deposed: Just a little time before his death, deceased (my brother) came to me to borrow a wedge. He said he was going to do a little job for his mother while he was waiting to go back to Mr. Dixton's.
By Mr. Levine: Bill worked with me for Ken. I would be insured with Ken. I could not say if my wife went to see Bill's wife on the night of his death. I did not hear any mention of insurance that Ken had taken out. I am not friendly, with the widow. I finished the painting after Bill's death. It took me two or three weeks to finish the job.
By Mr. Kinsey: I was not working for that time continuously. I did the work in my slack time.
To his Honor: Going straight at it, I could have done, the work in 6 or 8 days.

This concluded the case for the respondent.

After summing up his Honor said he did not think it was a case in which he could make an award. It was unfortunate that the widow had been left with four children. It probably would not be too late for a settlement. All the people in the case seemed to be decent people. It was his opinion that deceased was doing the work voluntarily. For the sake of the children, his Honor suggested that the people concerned should come together.

His Honor then formally found in favor of the respondent. No award was made as to costs.2
