OBITUARY

Mrs. Emma Harmer, of Blyth, who
died at her home on August
27 in her 100th year, was the elder
daughter of the late James and Phoebe
Bunnett and was born at Cambridge-
shire, England, in March, 1838. She
came to South Australia with her par-
ents in the ship Steadfast, which ar-
rived at Port Adelaide in November,
1852. Her parents settled in the Mt.
Barker district, and her father
afterwards kept the Lord Nel-
son Hotel at Wistow until about
1875 (this hotel has been closed for
more than 60 years). In 1863 at Holy
Trinity church, Adelaide, she was mar-
ried to Mr. James Harmer, and they
lived near Wellington and after-
wards at Mount Barker, and
in 1872 moved to Clare, where her hus-
band was engaged in a carrying busi-
ness. In 1882 they took up farming
near Blyth, where they lived until Mr.
Harmer's death in 1898. Mrs.
Harmer leased her property and
went into the township to live
35 years ago. The present Harmer-
ville school was built on land given by
her late husband. Mrs. Harmer left
four sons and one daughter:—Messrs.
John Harmer, of Hopetoun (Victoria);
J. E. Harmer, of Kilburn, S.A.; S. E.
Harmer, of Port Pirie; B. H. Harmer,
of Blyth; and Mrs. D. Leyson, of Ka-
dina. There are also 49 grandchil-
dren, 49 great grandchildren, and two
