HENRY MAWBEY'S DEATH

The Argus, Melbourne, Tuesday 10 September 1895
Warrnambool. Saturday Evening.
A telegram was received here this morning stating that Mr Henry MAWBEY had died at his son's residence in Melbourne.
The deceased gentleman was one of the early colonists, and was associated with Batman and others were among the first arrivals.
He landed in Tasmania when a lad, and eventually found his way to Melbourne in the forties.
At that time he was a good amateur rider, and followed the hounds in Melbourne for many years.
