MR. A.B. BEER
There passed away in St. John of God Hospital yesterday afternoon, at the age of 76, a well known identity of Goulburn in the person of Mr. Arthur Benjamin Beer, husband of Mrs. Marjory Beer, of 60 Lagoon Street.
Son of the late Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Beer, Mr. Beer was born and spent all his life in this city.
A printer by trade, Mr. Beer was employed for 31 years by 'The Goulburn Herald.' He established his own job-printing business in Lagoon Street.
His principal interest apart from his trade was in music. He could play several instruments and was bandmaster at one time of the Werriwa 3rd Infantry Band. He had the gift of mechanical ingenuity, which he applied not only to his printing machinery, but to his music. He devised a double flute which could easily have been exploited and made useful. He was organist at the North Goulburn Methodist Church for a number of years.
Deceased is survived by one daughter, Myra (Mrs. W. Godfrey) of Maroubra, Sydney; two sons, Arthur and Harry; two sisters, Eva (Mrs. E. Latty, of Parramatta), and Fanny (Mrs. F. Thompson, of Victoria); and two brothers, Alfred and the deceased's twin, William, of Goulburn. He also leaves eleven grand-children and twelve great grand-children.
The service, which was conducted by the Rev. W.J. Harper, was held at Craig's Chapel at 2 o'clock this afternoon, whence the funeral left for the Methodist portion pf the general cemetery.
