Notes:

Queenstown Free Press (June 1891)
DIED,- At Molteno, on the 20th July, 1891, Dr.
BATTESON, age 76 years and 6 months, formerly of Devonshire, England, leaving a sorrowing widow and family to mourn his loss. The family desire to thank all those friends who were so kind and
thoughtful, and assisted during the recent illness of Dr. BATTESON.

Quite a gloom was cast over the town of Molteno on Sunday last, when it became known that Mr. BATTESON had been called to a better home, passing quietly away in the 77th year of his age. Mr. BATTESON went to Molteno in the very early days, and being a chemist and druggist by profession was looked upon as the resident doctor. He attended many families in the neighbourhood until duly qualified medical men settled there. Even afterwards many were very anxious for Dr. BATTESON to attend their families. He made many friends far and near. The funeral took place on Tuesday, the Rev. C.K. HODGES (Wesleyan clergyman) officiating. All the stores were closed, a large number of farmers had arrived to be present at the burial. The church was crowded, and on the mournful cortege proceeding to the cemetery there was a larger gathering at this spot than was ever known before, all wearing that mournful aspect, indicative of their sorrow. Heartfelt sympathy is given to the sorrowing widow, family, and friends.
