  • 3 Feb 1934: LATE BEN BAXTER. Great Sporting Identity
    BENJAMIN BOX BAXTER, aged 57, who died after a short illness at Frankston on Tuesday, was the greatest cricketer the Peninsula has produced. He made many centuries and took hundreds of wickets. At one time he was with Hawksburn in District cricket. A former champion at sport at Scotch College, Baxter, after his school days, turned a professional pedestrian. He won numerous Sheffield handicaps, including a Frankston Gift, and as a hurdler was outstanding. He was a former captain of the Frankston Football and Cricket Clubs, and proved a match-winner on many occasions. He at one period, played ably for Essendon in the League, and represented Victoria against South Australia. At the funeral the coffin-bearers were: —E. K. Comb, who has been associated with the Frankston Football Club as a player and official for 45 years, Tom Deane (45 years), Bert Shannon (42 years), Charlie Willox (42 years), Jim Jolly (24 years), Vincent Crosskell (19 years), The pall-bearers were Messrs W. Stringer (president of the Peninsula Football League), G. Martin (a former Richmond player and a former secretary of the Sorrento Football Club), T. Hutchins (associated with the Mornington Football Club for 50 years and a life member and former secretary of the Peninsula League), D. Kennedy, senr.

  • 3 Feb 1934: OBITUARY — MR. B. B. BAXTER — The death of Mr. Benjamin Box Baxter occurred on Tuesday at St. Pancras private hospital after a brief illness. The late Mr. Baxter, who was aged 57 years, had not been in robust health for some time, but his death was not expected. Burial took place in the Frankston cemetery on Wednesday afternoon, when an exceptionally long line of cars formed the funeral. Those present at the grave included representatives of football and cricket clubs in all parts of the Peninsula. The coffin was carried by old footballers who had played with or against him many years ago. The pall was borne by representatives of the several football clubs. Those who carried the casket were Messrs. E. K. McComb, B. Shannon, J. B. Jolly, C. Willox, T. Deane and V. Croskell. The pall-bearers were Messrs. W. S. Stringer, G. Martin, T. Hutchins, H. Knox, D. McFarlane, W. C. Gilbert, A. Davey and. W E. Russell. The burial service was read by the Rev. P. B. Hayman. Mr. H J. Gamble had charge of the mortuary arrangements. A great number of wreaths from sporting bodies, business houses and friends were placed on the grave. At the conclusion of the funeral service the Rev. P. B. Hayman spoke of the late Mr. Baxter's fine record as a footballer and cricketer. He had played the game as it should be play-ed, and by his fine sportsmanship taught others to play the game in the field ,and, by so doing, taught them something of the game of life. Reference is made to the late Mr. Baxter's career in the athletic world in another column of this issue.9

(Migrant) Migration/Travel14 Mar 1833 Sailing with Anna Hale, Hannah Hale, Emma Hale, Elizabeth Hale, Caroline Hale, William Hale, Esther Hale to Hobart, TAS, Australia. Ship The family decided to emigrate to Van Diemen's Land. Very fortuitously, their initial travel plans were thwarted… At first they had intended to leave Liverpool on board "The Hibernian", but were unable to secure passage in time for its departure, so they were forced to wait several weeks for another vessel. They subsequently set sail, but their ship met a violent storm in the Bay of Biscay and nearly foundered, so the captain returned the ship to Liverpool, where "the old tub" was condemned. Whilst waiting (for two months) for yet another vessel, the Hale family learned that "The Hibernian" had caught fire at sea, and of the several hundred aboard, only about sixty people were saved. Their third voyage, aboard the "Princess Elizabeth", was also unsuccessful… a storm blew the vessel onto the Cheshire coast, and after the passengers and cargo were removed, she was towed back to Liverpool and declared unseaworthy. Two months later, the Hale family's fourth journey was delayed when their ship, the "Lady East", hit a sand bank near Liverpool … after being dislodged by a high tide, she was returned to the dock for inspection…there was no damage, so the ship was allowed to sail. It had taken a weary wait of eight months, but the Hale family's trip was finally 'underway'.
