IN MEMORIAM. TURNBULL.-In loving memory of my dear husband, Eli James Turnbull,who passed away at "Ulinbawn," Mulgoa, February 16th, 1919. I have lost my soul's companion, A Iife linked with my own, And day by day I miss him more As I walk through life alone. The silent grief that's in my soul No human eye can trace, For many a broken heart lies hid Behind a smiling face. Inserted by his loving wife, Adeline A. Turnbull.

TURNBULL.-In loving memory of our dear father and grandfather, Eli James Turnbull, who passed away at "Ulinbawn," Mulgoa,February I6th, 1919. A better father never lived, Not one so true and kind, His equal in this weary world Is very hard to find. He was a friend to many, And to his own proved true, Unselfish, steadfast, kind to all, And the best, of fathers too. Inserted by his loving children and grandchildren.

Taken from Ivy's birth record, more research to do.
