The child, while playing with others near the Housing Commission homes. ran across the road and was struck by a utility truck driven by Mr. L Wilson, who did everything possible to avert an accident. The little victim was frightfully mutilated and was dead on arrival at the hos-pital. Great sympathy is extended to the parents in their tragic loss.

Girls, 61-10: O. 1Holland 1.,, P. loeauglehole :2, G. Cleasby 3.

OCR as it stands; reads 'Girls, 6-10: O. Holland 1, P. Beauglehole 2, G. Cleasby 3'. Bazaar held at Gorae (10 km north of Portland) on Saturday 26 October 1946. Only a 'G. Cleasby' of the right age for Glenys (girls 10-11 in Jan 1950), so weak alone; it is the earliest Portland-district trace of the family and agrees with Ann's birth at Portland c1946-47.
