Obituary
- Mr. Charles Nicholas Player, of Koolywurtie. who died on April 6th, was born at Angaston in 1864. With his parents and sisters he arrived at Warooka in 1871—one of the Peninsula's early pioneers. Although the Warooka roads had been surveyed there were no made roads through the scrub. The house built by Mr. Player's father, was the first building to go up in Warooka. In those early days grain was taken out into the sea in bullock drays and loaded straight from the drays into boats. Mr. Player took their first load of wheat out in this manner. When there was one mail per week from Warooka to Sandy Point. Mr. Player used to carry the mailbag the sixteen miles each way on horseback. For this weekly trip, he was paid ten shillings. For farm wages, helping a neighbouring farmer, he received 15 - per week. In 1901, he married Miss Emily Newbold of Warooka. Following a number of years spent on Southern Yorke Peninsula. Mr. and Mrs. Player moved to Port Rickaby twenty years ago, where Mrs. Player still lives. Mr. and Mrs. Player celebrated their golden wedding on March 11th. 1951, when all the members of their family were home for the special occasion. There are three sons in the family — Edward and William of Port Rickaby and Clarence Warooka and one daughter. Mrs. W. E. Croser. lives at Minlaton.
