THE LATE W. F. BLOORE.
The late William Frederick Bloore, who died on Friday night last at his late home in Sydney, was 62 years of age. He was born on the island of Mauritius and came to New South Wales with his parents when about six years of age. His father first went to Eagleton as a school teacher, and then he came to Dungog, where he was stationed for very many years. He was one of the grand old pioneering teachers, a type that is not now found. The late William F. Bloore entered the Bank from Dungog and had been in different parts of the State since that time.
A widow, one son, Bruce, and three daughters, Mrs. Blythe (Leila), Berenice and Eleanor ('Pat.') survive. Mrs. John Lean (Dungog), Mrs. Pulver (Sydney) and Mrs. Allworth (Kempsey) are sisters.
