New Zealand Herald Tuesday 2nd February 1900.

BADLEY An old and much-respected resident of Otahuhu district, in the person of Mr James Badley, passed away on August 25th, and was buried in the Anglican Cemetery, Otahuhu, on Thursday, August 27th. For upwards of forty years the deceased was intimately associated with the business firm of Mr Alfred Buckland. At every horse, cattle and sheep sale conducted by that firm the face of James Badley was familiar. His loyalty to the firm, his obliging manner, and straightforward conduct, together with a thorough knowledge of his work, rendered him a great favourite, and secured him a large circle of friends. He leaves behind him a widow, a grown up family, and numerous grandchildren. The complaint to which the deceased succumbed was dropsy. The death of Mr James Badley tells us that another old identity has joined the great majority. The deceased was for many years a familiar figure in the Haymarket on Fridays, and at the Remuera Cattle Yards on Thursdays. He was a fine specimen of the old English yeoman, and often strongly reminded one of farmers in the old country. Above the average height, with rotund figure, and open ruddy countenance, every feature of which spoke of a kind and genial disposition, and fine carriage, he looked every inch a man. As he entered the dairy pens staff in hand, the very animals seemed to recognise in him a friend who understood them, and the purchaser who sought his advice was sure to receive his sound and honest opinion. It was his nature to give a straight reply to a straight question. The writer has many times asked, "Mr Badley, do you know anything of this horse?" and he would reply, "Yes, he won't suit you," or "Yes, he belongs to so and so, is sold for no fault, and if he suits you, I can recommend him." Such straightforward conduct as this, coming from an acknowledged authority, and whose word could be implicitly relied on, had not a little to do with the popularity of his employer's business, and many will miss a good friend now that he is no more. One day at the Remuera sale, an evidently poor woman bought a dairy cow; perhaps the poor body had been long saving to get enough money together. 'Jim', as he was familiarly called, was quite put about over it, and said to me, "Foolish woman; that cow will do her no good; I wish she had spoken to me, I could have found her a much better one for the same money." Such was his kindly nature. I am sorry to say that such manly unselfishness is getting rare in these days, and when we find it, it is a small justice to pen this humble tribute to his memory. 1895?

BOLER Our Tauhoa correspondent writes:- Mr Samuel Boler, of Frithwood, Tauhoa, whose serious illness was reported in the Auckland Weekly News, passed peacefully away to his long home on August 3rd. The sad news was circulated round this and the neighbouring settlements and on all sides expressions of grief at the loss sustained and sympathy with the family were heard. Mr Boler was the first settler on the Tauhoa Block. He was a grandson of Samuel Boler, Esq., of Wingerworth Hall, Derbyshire, England and came to this colony with his family by the Shaw, Saville liner Asterope, landing in Auckland on October 8th 1869. He remained in the town for nearly a year after his arrival and then came up to Tauhoa where he has remained ever since. The remains were interred in the churchyard of the Holy Trinity, Tauhoa, on Sunday, the 5th inst., in the presence of a very large gathering of friends and settlers from Tauhoa, Chalmerston, Port Albert, and surrounding districts, who came long distances over dreadful roads to pay the last mark of respect to the first settler in the district. The funeral cortege left Frithwood shortly before eleven, and on reaching the Church the bier was met by Mr C.V. Green, Anglican lay reader, who read the beautiful opening sentences of the burial service. The coffin, which was covered with flowers, sent by friends from far and near, was then placed in front of the chancel, and the Rev R. G. Boler, of Howick, eldest son of the deceased, celebrated holy communion, and afterwards preached a most impressive sermon, the subject being the parting of Elijah and Elisha. After the sermon, the favourite hymn of the deceased, "Rock of Ages'" was sung, and Mr Green resumed the burial service, which he read most feelingly. The committal to the earth and the final collect and blessing were given by the Rev R. G. Boler. The church was crowded to overflowing, many were unable to enter. The coffin was of polished kauri, with silver furniture, the work of Mr Charles Parker, jun., and Mr Levi Fletcher filled the double office of sexton and bellringer. Mrs J. Walker presided at the organ for both burial and communion services. Mr Boler's death will long be remembered in our district. He held office either as church warden or on the vestry ever since the Church of the Holy Trinity was erected, and was always to the fore when any church work required to be done. Mr Boler leaves a widow and four sons and three daughters, all of whom are married, to lament his death. He had attained the age of 77 years.

BRINDLE In everloving memory of my dear wife, Mary Brindle, who passed away at the Waikato Hospital on September 24, 1920.
I have lost my soul's companion, A life linked with my own,
And day by day I miss her more, As I walk through life alone,
The silent grief that's within my soul, No human eye can trace,
For many a broken heart has hid, Beneath a smiling face.
