By means of socials held locally under the capable secretaryship of Mr R Grey, almost sufficient money has been raised to pay for the memorial stone erected, which is most gratifying to all concerned. Only £11 remains to be subscribed, and it is confidentially expected that the amount will be received within the next few days. South Bourke and Mornington Journal (Richmond, Vic), 4 March 1920.
