Well, it wasn't an offer, but given it's new years eve and for the sake of peace around the world - The death of Patrick Setbright caused by the accident at the Homeward Bound Company's claim Hillsborough on Monday last created quite a sadness throughout the district where the unfortunate man resided for upwards of ten years and was consequently well known and deservedly respected as a hardworking quietly-disposed honest man. The particulars respecting his death can be learned from the evidence taken at the inquest held on Tuesday morning before deputy-coroner Dr Muller a report of which is forwarded herewith. On Tuesday afternoon his remains were buried in the Yack Cem. Yack is proverbial for largely attended funerals and Patrick Setbright's was more than usually numerous. There could not have been less than 200 horseman that came all the way from Hillsborough and a great many more joined the cortege at the township of Yack. The poor fellow had only been working at the Homeward Bound a fortnight I am told and had made arrangements to leave the colony in about 6 weeks for Canada intending to join two of his brothers who reside there. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Peter Ross" <rossof@ozemail.com.au> To: <AUS-VIC-HIGH-COUNTRY-L@rootsweb.com> Sent: Saturday, December 31, 2005 8:37 AM Subject: Re: [HC] 20.7.1867 OMA > Thanks Denise, if you wouldn't mind.

I'm sorry, I thought you had offered! In the interests of peace around the world, please accept my apologies, and heartfelt thanks! Have a great New Year (Midnight at Osbornes Flat has officially been designated as 9.00pm! Well... maybe 10.00?).
