    We saw her suffering day by day,
    It caused us bitter grief,
    To see her slowly pine away,
    And could not give relief.
    A faithful mother, true and kind,
    No one on earth like her we find;
    A year has passed, but none can tell,
    The loss of one we loved so well.

    I have not forgotten her, I loved her too dearly
    For her memory to fade from my life like a dream;
    The lips need not speak, though the heart mourns sincerely,
    And my thoughts often rest where they seldom are seen.

  • 16 Aug 1899: Beaconsfield. On Friday evening last one of the most enjoyable social evenings ever held in the North Beaconsfield Hall took place in honor of the late assistant station-master, Mr. Henry Mohr, who has recently been transferred to Baddaginnie. The gathering was thoroughly representative of the district, fully a hundred persons being in attendance, testifying to the admiration and esteem in which this ideal public servant was held. Ex-Cr. Sykes occupied the chair, and in presenting Mr. Mohr with a handsomely framed and illuminated address and a purse of sovreigns, on behalf of the residents, stated that the gathering had taken place to honor one to whom honor was due. The many years Mr. Mohr had spent in their midst had proved him to be a capable and obliging officer, ever courteous and zealous in the discharge of his duties, his genial, happy disposition creating the most pleasant relationship between himself and the residents of this and surrounding districts, whether in his public or private character.
    Mr. William Keating, of Lower Beaconsfield, supported the remarks of the chairman, on added that, having known Mr. Mohr for ten years, he could say that as year after year passed his respect and admiration for him increased. Having had special intimacy and dealings with their guest, observing him on the bright and serious side of life for so many years, he could but say, claiming a fair knowledge of men, that it had never been his happy lot to meet one whose fidelity and integrity he had ever more reason to admire. This large district which he had so faithfully served joined hands with him in wishing Mr. Mohr a bright and prosperous future. Although suffering from a recent sad bereavement, he felt it his duty to be there that evening to add his testimony to that of other speakers in honor of their guest. He was sure none would think less of him, under the circumstances, for his being present.
    Mr. Geo W. Martin, representing Gembrook, added a few words in reference to Mr. Mohr's departure. Mr. Martin said that the deepest and truest feelings were often those most difficult to utter and which words failed to express and this was a true farewell. Mr. Mohr had striven to look up to that golden rule -"Do unto other as you would they should do to you," an consequently he had reaped the golden reward—not expressed in that handsome address or the material purse of sovereigns—but in the admiration and heartfelt wishes of which these were but the token. To the parting guest and friend he could only say farewell, and, if for ever, well then—fare them well. Mr. Eckersall of Lower Beaconsfield, and Mr. H. Glisman, of Upper Beaconsfield, endorsed what had been said by previous speakers, the latter gentleman also expressing the regret of the local cricket club in losing such a good and thorough sportsman.
    Mr. Mohr on rising to respond received an ovation, and it was a considerable time before he could be heard. He feelingly thanked thbse present, and also those who were absent though connected with the movement; for their great kindness in presenting him with so handsome a testimonial purse of sovreigns. He felt at a loss to express himself sufficiently grateful for such generous treatment towards him that evening. He could not understand what he had done to merit such kindness, as he had simply each day endeavored to do his duty. He would treasure their gift for all time as a me mento of happy associations spent in their midst. Refreshments were served during the evening, and dancing was kept up till the early hours of Saturday morning. Miss Hitchcock, of Dandenong, and Messrs. R. Bain and Eckersall contributed songs during the evening, and Mr. L G. Jones a recitation.
    The cricket club here are very sanguine of winning the trophies presented by the association. Our old friend Joe Doherty, of Nobelius fame, will be a starter, also Oscar Nobelius and Leslie Naylor, while they will be without the services of H. Mohr and D. Hedrick, who will be out of the district. It is to he hoped the members will turn up when called upon to play and not always be fine weather cricketers. The Recreation Club are having a very good time from a financial point of view. Arbour Day has been celebrated on no fewer than three occasions, when a great amount of clearing was done which will greatly benefit the local cricket club. On Saturday each member of the committee put their names down for an additional 10/6, with the hope of having the necessary improvements carried out. Mr H. E. Martin, the secretary, is to be congratulated on the result of his efforts. Henri Adolph 'Henry' Mohr4

Newspaper-Articles

  • 1 Apr 1942: POSTWOMAN No 1. Sir: The claim by Terang to Victoria's first postwoman is without foundation. Bunyip has been extremely well served by a very efficient postwoman, Miss Betty Angwin, since October 2, 1941. As Bunyip is very proud of its postwoman, we cannot allow Terang's claim to go unchallenged.

  • 12 Dec 1942: FIRST POSTWOMAN. Sir: THE ARGUS on Wednesday stated that Victoria's first postwomen began duty the previous day. This matter was ventilated in THE ARGUS some months ago. It was shown then that Heathcote had a postwoman on duty during the first world war. For this war period Miss Betty Angwin, of Bunyip, is Victoria's No 1 postwoman, as she has been on duty and given efficient service for the last 14 months.
