      Obituary
      WALTER DANIEL REAKES
      With the passing of Mr. Walter
      Daniel Reakes at Dubbo Base Hos-
      pital, another link with Tomingley's
      earliest days was severed.
      Born at Dubbo 78 years ago, he
      came to the Tomingley district with
      his parents as a child and had lived
      in various parts or the district ever
      since.
      Friends recall that he was only ten
      years of age when he drove a mail
      from Obley to Dandaloo. He share
      farmed at "Glen Isla" for many years
      and for the past twelve years had
      worked for Mr. Jack McGaw.
      His mother once owned the Rail-
      way Hotel (now the Imperial) at
      Narrornine. He once owned several
      horses, including Narromlne and Cy-
      cling, which he raced in several
      western towns. He was a crack
      rifle shot and a wonderful bushman.
      He is survived by his wife, who
      lives in Narromine. and one daugh-
      ter, Mrs. T. B. McFarland, of For-
      bes. Mrs. J. Hangan, of Narromine,
      is a sister.
