    • OBITUARY

      Mrs. Mabel B. Mote

      Mrs. Mabel Beryl Mote, wife of Mr. Albert Mote, of Pritchett Street, Yass, died in the Yass District Hospital on Tuesday night. She was 60 years old.
      Mrs. Mote collapsed at her home early in the night, and was taken to hospital by Ambulance, and died several hours later.
      A distressing aspect of Mrs. Mote's death is that Mr. Mote has been ill himself and when he realised his wife required medical attention had to get up and call to neighbours for assistance.
      She was a daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs. Albert Wales, of Young, and was born at Young.
      She married Mr. Mote in the Young Methodist Church 39 years ago, and they then came to live at Yass.
      Mrs. Mote was a talented woman, interested in music, painting, sewing, and a keen gardener. She was a frequent exhibitor in the flower sections at St. Clement's Spring Show and at the annual P. & A. Show. At her home in Pritchett Street she invariably had a choice array of blooms, and she spent much of her time in her garden. She also exhibited knitting and cooking.
      In a quiet way Mrs. Mote assisted others in need. During the last war she used her skill in sewing, and knitting babies' layettes for needy people in England. She was a member of the Methodist Church, and in her younger days was an ardent worker.
      Besides her husband she is survived by one son, Gordon (Goulburn); a brother, Erle (Kingsvale), and one sister, Mrs. Alfred I'Anson (Greenthorpe). A daughter, Joyce (Mrs. K. MacLean, Forbes) predeceased her six years ago, and a brother, Desmond, died in 1928.
      After a service in the Methodist Church this morning, the funeral took place to the Yass cemetery.
      Rev. V. Nightingale officiated at the church and cemetery, and Mr. B. J. Delaney had charge of the arrangements.

She also wore the customary wreath and veil and a gold wristlet watch, the gift of the bridegroom, and carried a bouquet of white carnations and sweet peas. The bride's gift to the bridegroom was a shaving outfit. The bridesmaids were Miss Alice Mote and Miss Hilda Wales. They each wore a white chiffon dress, the former's being over a shell pink slip, and a gold bangle each, the gifts of the bridegroom. The bouquets, also gifts from the bridegroom, were of pink carnations and sweet peas. Mr Walter Mote was the best man and Mr Frank Delaney groomsman.

      The wedding breakfast was partaken at Mrs Fred Fisher's, where the Rev. Mr Weston presided and the usual toasts were honored. Mr and Mrs Mote left by the evening train for Sydney, where the honeymoon is being spent. Their future home will be at Yass.
