Passing of a Pioneer.
Another link with the early history of the western districts was severed on Tuesday last, when Mrs. McCudden, wife of Mr. John Patrick McCudden, of Tomingley, passed to the Great Beyond, at the age of 63 years. Mrs. McCudden had been ailing for time, and went to Sydney in the hope of recuperating. After sojourning in the metropolis for about three weeks her condition was apparently improved, and she decided to return home. On Tuesday Mrs. McCudden visited her daughter, Mrs. R. Nolan, at Narromine, and then proceeded to Tomingley. She took ill almost immediately, and passed away at 7.30 that night. Mrs. McCudden, whose maiden name was Toban, was born at Toban's Oakey Limekilns, in the Bathurst district. On coming west with her husband she resided for ten years at Cumnock, where Mr. McCudden engaged in farming pursuits. The family subserviently removed to Tomingley, where Mr. McCudden was hotel-keeping for a number of years. The subject of this obituary resided at Tomingley for a quarter of a century. She was beloved by the people of the district for her genial and hospitable disposition, and many people will have reason to cherish recollections of her generous benefactions. When the news of her death reached Dubbo deep regret was expressed. Though residing a distance away, she was well-known to many residents of this town. Mr. James McCudden, of the local postal inspector's office, and Mr. Jack McCudden, of Dubbo, are sons of deceased. Mesdames A. McClosky (Tomingley), Nolan (Narromine), and the Misses V. and L. McCudden (Tomingley) are daughters of deceased. In addition to those mentioned, Mrs. McCudden is survived by one sister and several brothers. The funeral took place on Wednesday, the body being interred in the Catholic section of the Tomingley cemetery, Rev. Father Heath, of Peak Hill, officiated at the graveside.
