Obituary King's Plains (says the "West Macquarie") has lost one of its oldest and most esteemed residents by the death of Mr. Charles Sherlock, which occurred at his residence on Monday morning last. For the past couple of years he had been suffering from min-er's consumption, and for some time past had bean unable to leave his room, so that death came as a happy release. The funeral took place on Tuesday afternoon, interment being made in the R.C. portion of the Blayney cemetery. Rev. Father O'Keeffe read the service at the graveside. The late Mr. Sherlock was 59 years of age and a native of the Monaro district. He came to King's Plains as a lad with his father, and his home has been in this locality ever since. In his younger days he engaged in mining, and was associated in the Last Chance Mine many years ago with the late Mr. Wallace, of Bendigo, and others. He was also interested in McPhillamy's Hill Mine, and in addition did a lot of mining work in the locality on his own. Latterly he had engaged in farm-ing. He leaves to mourn his death a widow and two sons, Victor and Charles; and three daughters, Mrs. Death Miss Camelia and Miss Winifred.

He was buried on 12 Nov 1918 in Blayney Cemetery.
