DEATH OF MRS. HARRIGAN

The death occurred on Monday night at 8 o'clock, of Mrs. Elizabeth Harrigan, wife of Mr. William Harrigan, senr., and mother of Charles, James, Bert and Will Harrigan, all well-known citizens held in high regard.

The deceased, who was 71 years of age, was a devoted mother, and had played well her part in the progress and welfare of the community in which she resided for so many years.

She was born at Dapto, being a daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. James Williamson. Forty-eight years ago she married Mr. Harrlgan and since that date had resided continuously at Tarrawanna.

Mrs. Harrigan took an active interest in work of the Church of England, and she will be sadly missed as a worker in this respect. The Church of England at Fern Hill will stand as a monument to her efforts, as well as of other helpers.

As a neighbour she was a wonderful help in sickness or trouble. The funeral on Wednesday was a large and representative one, the remains being laid to rest in the Church of England Cemetery, Wollongong, the Rev. Setchell (Corrimal) and Rev. E. Walker (Wollongong) officiated at the graveside, both paying a very high tribute to the the Christian life of the deceased.
