OBITUARY
MR. ANDREW G. ELLEM.
There passed away on May 3, 1936, at his residence, Armidale road, South Grafton, Mr. Andrew G. Ellem, late of Glenreagh, aged 75 years, after a long and painful illness extending over a period of two years. The deceased was born at Wollimbi and came to live at Southampton, Clarence River, when quite a youth, and for a number of years followed farming pursuits in that district. Here he met and married Miss Perring. Some forty years ago he bought a property in the Glenreagh district, and became a very successful maize grower. By careful selection of seed he evolved a variety of maize which was then, and still is, known as "Ellem Corn," and which variety of maize he kept for 36 years. About fifteen years ago he retired from active farming, and up to the time of his illness lived a quiet life in the Glenreagh district. In his young days, deceased was a great lover of sport, especially cricket, in which he always took a keen interest and enjoyed the distinction of being a player well above the average. In his day he was recognised as the fastest bowler on the Clarence, a very sure catch in the slips and a sound batsman, having scores in every ten under the hundred. He failed by four to reach the coveted century, being run out at 96. In one season he took 112 wickets for 300 runs, and in one innings secured the whole 10 wickets. Amongst his cricketing friends he was known as "The Demon Bowler," so named on account of his speed, which was comparable with that of Spofforih. Although not a racy man, he was always an admirer of good horses, and bred some of more than ordinary merit. In the old bridle days he was always represented, and many a bridle was won by his horses. Continuing with his breeding he entered the registered sphere with a mare named Dementer. This mare had only a few starts, but won a double at Ulmarra. From Dementer he bred Lord Palm, and with this horse had wins at Grafton, South Grafton, and on one occasion he won the Ballina Cup. Phast Step was an other good horse of his breeding, winning races in Newcastle district and also at Grafton and South Grafton. The late Mr. Ellem was a great supporter of his church, and was a man of integrity, one whose word was his bond, and who was always to be relied upon, a man of strong character and fearlessness, one who had the courage of his convictions, but at the same time gentle and kind in disposition, loved by all who knew him and ever ready to do a good turn. Deceased is survived by his wife, four sons and two daughters. Arthur and John (Grafton), Percy (Glenreagh) and Henry (Wombah, Chatsworth Island) are the sons, and Mrs. F. Green (Glenreagh) and Mrs. W. Blackley (Dorrigo) the daughters. The remains were interred in the Church of England portion of the South Grafton cemetery where a large number of relatives and friends came from all parts of the Clarence district to pay their last respects to one who was so dear to them.
