May 17, 1918 Richard Ambrose TUCKER, of Dimboola, whose ploughs had a big sale and who died on March 11, left property valued at £2,000. Mr D McINTYRE's delivery mare took fright in the Main Street, Natimuk, yesterday and got out of the cart, but beyond breaking of the harness, little damage was done. On Wednesday morning of last week, at twenty minutes to three o'clock, Dr. BIRD received an urgent call from Mr A. TUCKER, who lives about eight miles West of Goroke, to attend his wife, who had suddenly taken ill. The doctor arrived there about five o'clock, Mrs TUCKER then being in a critical condition, and it was found necessary to perform a very delicate operation. The many friends of Mrs TUCKER will be pleased to know she is on the high way to recovery. Mr Geo. BAILEY, who is an inmate of Dr. BIRD's private hospital at Natimuk, is gradually improving.
