A COLONIST OF 1839.
EUDUNDA, July 18.— Mr. Johann Gott-
fried Schubert died this week as the re-
sult of an accident. Mr. Schubert arrived
in 1839, at the age of 13, with his parents.
He was born at Zilchan, Germany, in 1826,
and attained the age of 86 years. Port
Adelaide on his arrival consisted of a few
mud huts. His father settled at Klemzig,
in the first instance, afterwards removing
to Langweil, near Tanunda. For many
years Mr. Schubert farmed at North Rhine
and Neales Flat, but for the last 20 years
he had been living with his children, and
for seven years with his son, Mr. W.
Schubert, of Peep Hill. He was married in
1849 to Miss Louise Diedrich, of Tanunda,
who died 15 years ago. There were nine
children, namely: — Messrs. W. and J. G.
Schubert, of Peep Hill, F. Schubert
(Bower), G. Schubert (Tanunda), Mrs.
Pryzibilla (Farrell's Flat), Mrs. A
Tscharke (Eudunda), Mrs. Zerna (Mel-
bourne), the late Mrs. A. T. Jenke (Peep
Hill), and Miss Schubert, who is also dead.
There are 56 grandchildren and 26 great-
grandchildren.
The old gentleman had occasion
to rise during the night, and when
outside he slipped and fell. The inmates
of the house did not hear him go out, and
he was not discovered until early morning.
When, found his speech had left him, and
he failed to regain it before dying six days
later. When he fell he broke one of
his arms and dislocated his hip. He did
not feel any pain, and the time between
the accident and his death was passed as
in a peaceful slumber. Mr. Schubert had
lived ia the district for over 30 years.
