  • 10 Feb 1911: OBITUARY. JAMES CRESCENT STEEL, J.P.
    ONE who was identified with the municipal and industrial history of North Melbourne for many years, passed away at his residence, Macaulay-rd., on the 3rd inst., in the late ex-Cr. J. C. Steel, J.P. He came to Victoria after a seafaring life, in connection with which he could relate many interesting incidents; and founded an extensive tannery business, having manufactories at North Melbourne—next his private residence—and one in Sydney, together with a depot for hides, skins, etc., in Spencer-st. Mr. Steel was for many years a member of the Western Ward in the North Melbourne Council, and as a member of the Finance Committee of that body gave the benefit of his business aptitude and ability to the ratepayers.
    Older residents will remember that the western ward with its vacant land, in respect to which it was often a Herculean task to get the rates owing, on it, and its drainage difficulties, was a source of constant anxiety to the local council.
    Cr Steel often confessed that he did not see at all a plain way out of the wood regarding this portion of the town, and placed the cost of putting it in proper condition at quite £18,000. He was mayor of the town about 1885, and dispensed the hospitality and social functions incidental to the office with no niggard hand. Mr. Steel was also a justice of the peace, and although he did not sit as often as some justices, his presence on the bench was always a source of pleasure to his colleagues.
    At one time the deceased was a wealthy man, and had a beautiful residence at Healesville. On the walls of this house were some very valuable oil paintings, the work of the best British artists, while the land round it comprised some of the best in the district. Mr. Steel was intimate with a large circle of city business men, and the "cronies" of his matured manhood numbered some of the best known public, official, and commercial characters in Melbourne. Almost thirteen years ago the large tannery in Macaulay-rd. took fire early one hot wind January evening, and by daybreak only portions of the brick work remained.
    The present State Treasurer (Hon. W. A. Watt), was at one time a clerk in Mr. Steel's office in Macauilay-rd., but soon became his employer's right hand man, and we are sure none read the news of the demise of Mr. Steel in last Saturday morning's papers with greater regret than he. At the time of his death, Mr. Steel was in his 78th year, but for considerable period before the end came suffered from very poor health, and retired from business.
    Deceased was a widower, and leaves a grown up family. The funeral, which was of a strictly private character, took place on Sunday last, the remains being interred in the Church of England Compartment of the Melbourne General Cemetery. The Rev. W. H.. Lane officiated at the grave, and among the mourners were the Hon. W. A. Watt.
    Joseph Allison had charge of the funeral arrangements.8
