Many of our readers will learn with regret of the death of Miss Lois Annie Bowmar, daughter of Mrs and the late Mr Joseph Bowmar, formerly of Otaraia. The young lady had been employed in Mr W. Baker's establishment and was a general favorite, but her health becoming low she was sent to Queenstown for a change some time ago. At first the change proved beneficial, but in the long run the complaint assumed the mastery and she returned to Gore on Thursday last, only to pass away this morning. -Mataura Ensign, 8/5/1907.
The death took place at Gore on Wednesday last of Miss Lois Annie Bowmar, daughter of Mrs and the late Joseph Bowmar, fomerly of Otaraia. Deceased young lady had been temporarily residing in Queenstown for a year or two past in the hopes of overcoming that fell disease, consumption, but though her life was prolonged the stage of the complaint had become too advanced and deceased returned to Gore some 6 days before her death. Much sympathy is felt for the bereaved mother. -Lake Wakatip Mail, 14/5/1907.
