The funeral of the late Cr. M. Baulch, who died at Forth on Friday, took place yesterday afternoon at the Forth Methodist Cemetery. The attendance was a striking and eloquent tribute to the esteem in which deceased was held. On leaving "Medlands," Wilmot road, the cortege was a lengthy one, but as it proceeded on its way the proportions increased, until a length of three quarters of a mile was reached. The long and faithful service Mr. Baulch had rendered, first as a member of the Forth Road Trust and later as a representative of the Abbotsham ward of the Leven Municipality, received fitting expression and appreciation from those he had served.
The mourners were the five sons, Messrs. Henry, Charles, John, Joseph and George Baulch and Mrs. P. Mulligan and Miss Baulch, daughters. The Warden of Leven (Cr. C. A. Dunning) and Crs. F. A. Tongs, J. F. Wright and W. J. Carter, carried the coffin to its last resting place and Crs. E. Hobbs, M.H.A. , A McPherson, A. D. W. Tongs and J Johnstone were the pall bearers. Cr. T. W. Wright and A. S. Lakin were also present. Approaching Forth a number of members of the Forth branch of the I.O.O.F., of which the deceased was a member, joined the cortege. The burial service was read by the Rev. B. T. Barker, who delivered an eloquent address, in which he bore testimony to the deceased as a husband and a father and to his untiring work in the interests of the people. Mr. J. W. Gardiner read the Oddfellows' oration. Amongst the visitors were ;- Hons. Herbert Hays (Hon. Minister), and H. A. Nichols, M.L.C., Messrs. J. Watt (Master Warden Mersey Marine Board), J. Littlejohn (secretary Mersey Marine Board), Cr. H. A. Vertigan (Devonport Council), Messrs. John Luck, T. Collett and A. R. Quinn (council clerk of Leven).

Death of Mrs. M. Baulch
A Forth Pioneer
The death occurred on Saturday at "Medlands," Forth, of the late Mr. Moses Baulch, after an illness of about two
years, in the 87th year of her age. Her husband, who was a councillor and J. P. of the Leven Municipality,
predeceased her by 13 years. Despite her advanced years, until two years ago she was a very active and industrious woman and her whole life was characterised by unceasing dedication to her family, and the "Medlands" home was always a haven and hospitality was always lavishly dispensed.
The deceased lady was born at Longford and was the daughter of the late Mr. George Greig; she had resided at
"Medlands" about 50 years. One daughter died many years ago, but there are five sons and five daughters living,
the daughters being Mesdames E. Knights, T. Wood, G. P. R. Mulligan, P. J. Layton and Miss Baulch, who resided
with her mother. The sons are Henry, Charles, George (who also resided with his mother), John and Joseph, and
they all reside comparatively close to the homeland.
The funeral took place on Sunday afternoon and although impossible to publish a press notice of the death or
funeral, a large number of relatives and friends attended to pay their last tribute of respect, no fewer than
24 cars being in the procession, in addition to a large number of pedestrians who joined the cortege before it
reached the Methodist cemetery, where the Methodist Home Missionary, Mr. O. R. James conducted the service at
the graveside.
Mr. James spoke of the sterling Christian life of deceased, who had assisted and supported her church in every
possible way and who had proved herself a real mother in Israel and he extended the sympathy of the whole
community to the relatives.
The chief mourners were Mr. Allen Greig, of Bracknell (brother of deceased) and Mrs. Greig, the sons and daughters,
Senator Herbert Hays and the Hon. Alex. Lillico, M.L.C., friends of the family, were also present. The wreaths were
beautiful and numerous, and the beautiful polished oak casket was borne to the grave by her two sons Henry and
Charles and her sons-in-law, Messrs. G. P., R. Mulligan and P. J. Layton.
