1902 - Death of an Old Gulgongite.
On Tuesday afternoon there passed away an old mining pioneer in the person of Mr. Robert Crick. The deceased gentleman had been ailing for a long time, the trouble being a cancer in the stomach. He was a familiar figure in Gulgong in the golden seventies, when the precious metal was taken to the banks in spring carts. For some years past he has been residing in his comfortable home near Sydney. Mr. Richard White (one of his old mining mates) was with him in his last moments.
The remains were interred in the Necropolis at Rookwood. One by one the hardy pioneers are crossing the Great Divide.
