BENEFIT ENTERTAINMENT AT
BOX HILL.
LESLIE SWINDON'S SERVICES RECOGNISED.
The recent drowning fatalities at the lagoon in Surrey park were recalled on Tuesday evening, March 23, when a benefit entertainment was given in the Recreation hall, Box Hill, to Mrs. Thomas, mother of one of the victims.

The residents of the district evinced their practical sympathy with the bereaved on that occasion by turning up in large numbers, so much so that the hall was packed to the doors. Cr. W . Redman, president of the Nunawading shire council, presided, and during an interval introduced Sir Robert Best, M.H.R., who made a presentation to Mr. Leslie Swindon, who at the time of the occurrence displayed much gallantry in saving one of the boys, and vainly attempted to rescue the other two. On behalf of Mr. A. J. Petherick and Mrs. Petherick, Sir Robert Best presented him with a handsome 18 carat gold watch, and spoke in glowing terms of his brave conduct in rescuing the son of the donors, and his unsuccessful attempts to also recover the boys Leslie Thomas and Douglas Anderson.

The watch was suitably inscribed with the monograms of the recipient, on the outside, whilst the inside case bore the following inscription: - 'Presented to Leslie Swindon by A. J. Petherick for rescuing my son Leonard from drowning; February 6, 1915.' The handing over of the gift aroused much enthusiasm and applause from the large audience. In acknowledgment, Mr. Swindon contended that he had only done his duty, and was extremely sorry that he had failed to perform the rescue of the other two lads.

President Redman referred to the rescuer as being a great credit to the district. There was no doubt but that some tangible recognition would have been made of his heroic conduct by the public, but under the circumstances the Belgian relief and other patriotic funds had practically exhausted the people's pockets. A first-class set of picture was then shown by Mr. Williams, of the Box Hill picture theatre, at the close of which thanks were extended to all who had assisted in the promotion of the entertainment. It is expected that over £21 will be available as the outcome of the effort towards the object in view. Mr. A. W. Cook acted as hon. secretary, and among others who assisted were Messrs. Clifford, J. Young, D. McFarlane, A. J. Petherick, Frandsen, and Walter Hill.

This makes a total of 23 enlistments out of a club membership of 50.

APPROACHING MARRIAGE
The marriage of Jean Gregory, only daughter of Mr and Mrs E. W. Curtis, with Mr Leslie Swindon will be celebrated at St. Paul's, Rusworth, on Saturday, October 24, at 6.30 p.m.

SWINDON - CURTIS
A PROFUSION of pink and white flowers were grouped in St. Paul's Church of England Rush worth, on Saturday. October 24, when the marriage of Miss Jean Gregory Curtis to Mr Leslie Swindon took place. The Rev. Williams performed the ceremony.

The bridegroom, who is the youngest son of Mr and Mrs W. Swindon, 21 Dalmore Avenue, Ormond, was supported by Mr Kenneth Davies as best man, and Mr Charles Curtis (brother of the bride), as groomsman.

The bride is the only daughter of Mr and Mrs E. W. Curtis, of "Portreath," Rushworth. She made a very attractive figure in her old world gown of white chiffon and palest pink tulle. The frilly skirt was composed of tiers of tulle and white silk lace, allied to a bodice of white ninon over a pink foundation. Her filmy pink tulle veil was caught to a little silver Lace cap, that had a half wreath of orange blossom at the back, and she held a dainty posy of pink blossom and lily-of-the valley. In keeping with the bride's toilette were the bouffant frocks of pink floral net and moire worn by the bridesmaids, Miss Nina Coyle and Miss Jean Collings. Mittens and floral head bands made pretty accessories, and they carried posies of pink and mauve sweet peas.

The reception was subsequently held at the Parish Hall. The bride's mother wore navy georgette and carried a bouquet of pink roses. Mrs Arnold Vasey (the bride groom's sister) set off her black ensemble with deep red roses.

Last Saturday evening he was entertained by his comrades and friend at a complimentary social at the White Horse hotel, Box Hill, and was presented with an illuminated address and purse of sovereigns.

The Age (Melbourne, Vic. : 1854 - 1954) Thu 10 Apr 1879 Page 2 NEWS OF THE DAY.
A strange accident occurred last night at the Melbourne Hospital. At about eight o'clock a patient named William Swindon, suffering from pneumonia, had occasion to go to an apartment off the ward. He was attended to the door by a female nurse, and she missing him, it was discovered that he had jumped from the window on to the path below, a distance of about twenty-five feet, where he was found. Several wardsmen at once carried him into the casualty ward, where he was examined, and it was ascertained that he had sustained a compound fracture of the leg. Considering the state of Swindon's health, the nature of the injuries he has sustained, and the shock he must have experienced, it is feared that the accident will end fatally.
The necessity of fitting the window with iron bars is now evident.

On Wednesday night, about 8 o'clock, a patient in the Melbourne Hospital, named William Swindon, who was under treatment in a ward in the upper portion of the eastern wing of the institution, eluded the vigilance of his nurse, and precipitated himself out of a window on to the footpath beneath, a distance of 25ft. The unfortunate man (says the Telegraph) was found on the pavement, and was, with all promptitude, conveyed to the casualty room, where it was ascertained that he had sustained a compound fracture of his leg. It is feared that the injuries received, together with the shock to the nervous system, will result fatally.

The Australasian (Melbourne, Vic. : 1864 - 1946) Sat 12 Apr 1879 Page 21
An accident of a somewhat extraordinary nature occurred at the Melbourne Hospital on Wednesday evening, William Swindon, a patient on the medical side of the house, who is suffering from pneumonia, left his bed and escaped from the ward without attracting the attention of any of the nurses. He went to a small apartment immediately adjoining the ward, and succeeded in throwing himself out of a narrow window, which, strange to say, was without any protecting bars. The unfortunate man, who was in the early stage of delirium, fell to the ground below, a distance of about 25ft., and sustained a compound fracture of the leg besides internal injuries. He was discovered almost immediately afterwards, and was removed to the surgical side, where his injuries received prompt attention. Taking into consideration, however, the nature of the ailment from which the man was suffering, and the shock to the system consequent upon the injuries resulting from the fall, there is but a remote chance of the patient recovering. At a late hour last night the case appeared to be hopeless.

INQUESTS.
THE ACCIDENT AT THE MELBOURNE
HOSPITAL.
Dr Youl held an inquest at the Melbourne Hospital on Thursday upon the body of William Swindon, aged 49 years, the patient who threw himself out of a window on Wednesday evening Thomas Henry Swindon, son of deceased, deposed that he last saw his father alive in the hospital on Sunday last, the day after he had been admitted. Deceased was rambling in his mind at times He was a temperate man, and had never attempted to destroy himself. Maria Barnes, attendant Melbourne Hospital, deposed that she had charge of the ward in which deceased had been on the night in question.

There were 27 patients in the room At about half past 9 o'clock on Thursday night deceased got out of bed and went out of the room Witness followed him at once. The window in the bathroom was open Deceased had disappeared. Witness at once went down, and found him lying insensible on the ground beneath the window. Deceased was in the habit of getting up, as his breathing was very bad It was impossible for him to have fallen out of the window. He must have squeezed himself through it. Peter Bruce Bennie, surgical locum tenens, Melbourne Hospital, deposed that deceased was suffering from acute inflammation of the lungs. he had no delirium tremor, and there was no history of drinking. The window out of which deceased threw himself was so small that very few men could possibly get through it. Deceased was sinking fast on the morning of the accident, and would probably have lived about two days. Alexander D Henry, surgeon, Melbourne Hospital, attended deceased after the accident. He never rallied, but died at a quarter past 4 the following morning. The cause of death was pneumonia and shock to the system.

The Jury found that the deceased died from acute inflammation of the lungs, accelerated by throwing himself from a window of the hospital a distance of more than 25ft.

Notes
General:
Williams birth certificate has him registered only as Male Swindon not present. Father William Swindon aged 24 years, waiter born Shoreditch and mother Louisa North 32 years, born St George's in the east. His birthplace is registered as Washington, but is registered with other births in Maidstone and Footscray. I have been unable to find a place name of Washington in Victoria, but presume it was in the Footscray area in 1860. His parents were said to have been married in 1853 at the Parish Church and they were said to have 3 children living and deceased. The informant on this certificate was Louisa Swindon (mother).

William Swindon, Clerk, Bachelor aged 22 of Emerald Hill father William Swindon, mother Louisa North and Mary Ellen Latchford aged 21, Dressmaker of Emerald Hill, father Richard Latchford and mother Elizabeth Hughes, were married by Joseph King, Congregational Minister, at 122 Raglan Street Emerald Hill. The signatures of the witnesses to the wedding are illegible, although the second surname seems to be Fitzgerald. William is said to have been born at Footscray and Mary Ellen at Emerald Hill.

On William's death certificate, his father is said to be William Swindon, cook, and his Mother Louisa Swindon, formerly North. His wife is also named as Louisa North, this is clearly an error. He is said to have been married at Emerald Hill at the age of 22 years of age to Louisa North, and he was a widower at the time of his death. Children are named as Elizabeth (Dec), William 57, Walter 55, George (dec), Mary Ellen 48, Leslie 45 and Ruby 44.
