OBITUARY MR, DENNIS O'DONOGHUE One by one the fine old pioneers of the Rutherglen district, men who built their homes in the forest, and carved out their farms by continuous hard work from the rise of the sun to its setting in the west, are gradually passing away, says "The Sun." They were not men of eight hours per day or 44 per week; they were out to establish a home and the question of hours was not thought of. Dennis O'Donoghue, of Brimin, who died early on Sunday morning, was one of these men. The deceased followed his brothers, Daniel and Patrick, to Australia and made his way to the Rutherglen district. After a short period of Colonial experience - working for settlers - he decided to make his home at Brimin. There were five brothers in the O'Donoghue family - Daniel, Patrick, Michael, Dennis and Hugh - and they were five worthy pioneer settlers, men who made their homes here and remained until the Great Master called them home, Dennis being the last to get the call. Close on 50 years ago the deceased gentleman left his native home, as his name indicates, the Emerald Isle, and became a respected citizen of this district. The deceased, after swcuring his land and providing a home, married and lived at his home- stead ever since. He was a man of genial spirit, and many a weary traveller received a welcome when calling at the home. The deceased leaves a widow, five daughers, Mary (Mrs. Goodger, Indigo), Theresa (Brimin), Margaret (Mrs. T. Reidy, Sydney), Hannah (Mrs. Darmody, Leneva), Agnes (Moss Vale, Sydney), and three sons, Dennis, John and Patrick (Brimin), to mourn their great loss. On Monday a large num- ber of briends followed the remains to Carlyle Cemetery, where the Rev. Father Lawless conducted the burial service of the Catholic Church.
