Death by Drowning Crookwell Gazette Wednesday 8th March 1893 Mr. James Hamilton of Lost River was drowned in the Crookwell NSW River Saturday night last. Deceased had been working for Mr. Henry Carr, somewhere beyond Binda and was on his way home on horseback. He called at Binda where he was last seen by Mr. W. Rolfe. Next morning he was found washed up against a tree, by, we believe Mr. Webster, about ¼ mile below where the Crookwell NSW River crosses the Wheeo Binda Road. An inquiry was held by Mr. E. A. Webster yesterday and Mr. S. L .Cox, when a verdict of accidental drowning was returned. Deceased was about 40 years of age and leaves a wife and six children in very distressed circumstances.

On Saturday a thunderstorm, which was usually severe commenced about four o'clock and within two hours two inches of rain fell flooding the low- lying portions of the town. Rogers' store and several private homes were inundated. The river rose a banker and carried away fences, culverts, and one bridge. Heavy rain fell on Saturday night and Sunday with the thunder storms. The total official register was 540 points. The police report having found the body of a man named James Hamilton washed up into a willow tree, three miles from Binda, in the Crookwell River. The deceased left the Binda Royal Hotel about twelve o'clock on Saturday night for Lost River where he resided on a selection. On Sunday morning Mr. A Webster found his horse in a paddock and made a search along the river without result. He then went for the police and they found the body half a mile below the crossing, a magisterial inquiry was held yesterday and a verdict of accidental drowning was returned. Hamilton, who was 40 years old, leaves a widow and six children totally unprovided for. JAMES PELHAM HAMILTON: Occupation: Miner CAROLINE WEAVERS: Witnesses to her second marriages to Peter Cavill were her mother Mary Ann Derwin and step father James Derwin. CAVILL, Mrs. P (Caroline) Argyle Liberal, Tuesday 3.5.1904 SUDDEN DEATH It is with regret that we record the death of Mrs. Peter Cavill, which took place at her residence off the Wheeo road, about six miles from Crookwell NSW, on Sunday afternoon last. It appears that deceased suffered from bleeding at the throat, and was attended for this complaint by Dr Pawlett some two months ago. Deceased recovered from the attack, and was up and about in her usual health to the day of her death, in fact she assisted in cooking the family dinner on Sunday. Shortly before dinner time on Sunday a severe attack of bleeding at the throat and nose took place, and all efforts to stop the bleeding were to no avail, death taking place some two hours after its commencement, and before medical assistance could be procured. Deceased was 52 years of age, and had resided in this district all her life, being highly respected by all who were acquainted with her. We beg to extend our sympathy to the bereaved family in their sad and sudden loss.
