The Late Duncan Ernest
Robinson.
Residents of Konnongorring were grieved to learn on Tuesday of sudden death the previous night of Mr. D. E. Robinson, of Udenberry Hill. Deceased had been in normal health but suffered a sudden collapse and on being conveyed to the Wongan Hills hospital he passed away, Every sympathy is felt for the bereaved family, which only a few weeks ago suffered the loss of one of the sons, Pte. Howard Robinson, who was accidentally drowned while serving in tbe North-west with the A.M F. The late Mr. Robinson who was sixty-six years of age, served in the 1914-18 war with the 10th Light Horse and it was while in France that he made the acquaintance of the lady who eventually became his wife. He had farmed in the Konnongorring district for a long period. To the widow and the remaining members of the family (Cedric, Lenard and Yvonne) is extended sincere sympathy in their time of deep sorrow.
