A well-known resident of the Marburg district, Mr. George Blandford Dance, has passed away at the age of 60 years. The deceased was born in Devonshire, England, and coming to this country 42 years ago had resided in the Marburg district continuously. He chiefly followed farming and dairying, and was the first in the district to erect a silo for the conservation of fodder. He greatly interested himself in sport, and visited various shows throughout Queensland and northern New South Wales with his well-known hunters and jumpers. He took a great interest in the Marburg Rifle Club, of which he was captain for a number of years, and also occupied the position of secretary of the G.U.O.O.F. Last year he was appointed secretary of the Marburg and District A. and I. Association. Eighteen months ago, owing to ill-health he retired from active work, and resided in Marburg.
