Miss Edith K Julius.
An Old Meadvale Resident and Devoted Worker for St John's Church.
Residents of Meadvale and members of the congregation of St John's Church Redhill, in common with a wide circle of friends by whom she was held in high regard, learnt with sorrow of the death of Miss Edith Katharine Julius, who passed away on Thursday of last week at Hollowdene Meadvale after a short illness. Miss Julius who was 87 years of age, had been in failing health for some time, but was able to attend church within a fortnight of her death.
Miss Julius had lived in Meadvale where her gracious presence was always welcomed, for many years. Of a kindly and sympathetic disposition, she was always willing to render help and never refused any appeal made to her. She was a devoted worker in connection with St John's Church and was for 20 years Sunday School Superintendent of Meadvale, where she won the affection of all the children. For the long period of 50 years she was an Associate of the Girls Friendly Society, in which she took a warm and practical interest, and she only relinquished her activities in this connection on account of failing health. Greatly interested in missionary work, Miss Julius was for many years a zealous worker on behalf of overseas missions, and she and her sister, with whom much sympathy has been expressed, delighted in placing their beautiful grounds at the disposal of the young people of the parish for their various activities, a kindness which was held in high appreciation.
The Funeral
The funeral took place on Saturday, the service in St John's Church being followed by the interment in the family vault in the churchyard; a fitting resting place beneath the tower of the church he loved so well.
The service was impressively conducted by the Rev T.W.D. Wright, assisted by the Rev H Andersen. Mr Drury (organist) presided at the organ and the choir led the singing of the hymns, "The Saints of God" and "Alleluia the Strife is O'er" and of the Nunc Dimittis as the cortege left the church. The mourners from the house were: her sorrowing sister Miss C. Julius, Mrs A. Wilson, Sir A. Haye Butterworth, Miss Parker, and Mr and Mrs A.G. George. They were met at the church by the Rev A. Morris, Mr and Mrs A. Stephens, the Rev M. Holme (representing the Brewin family), Dr H Parker, the Rev R Stevens, the Rev C Morris, Miss Stevens, Miss S Parker, Mr H Holme, and Miss Rose.
