Obituary
Widespread regret will be felt, particularly among members of the A.I.F. at the death of Sister Mabel Baudinet, of Lake Victoria, which took place at a private hospital in Melbourne on Sunday last. Sister Baudinet trained as a nurse at the Bairnsdale Hospital and on the outbreak of war offered her services to her country. She was later accepted and detailed for duty in India. On returning from the war in May 1918 as a cot case, and with her health definitely broken, Sister Baudinet struggled bravely to return to her previous work. She was still quite a young woman at her death and is one more to add to the ever increasing list of post war casualties, which almost daily accrues to the sum of Australia's sacrifice. the remains were privately interred at Dandenong.
