For many years the late Mr. Adams was a foreman of the tallow and fertilizer departments at the local freeming??? works, and his thorough knowledge of the work and high standard of efficiency won him much respect. He was possessed of great strength in his younger days, and to see him coopering up a tallow cask was a sight to remember.         Mr Adams who was aged ?? is survived by his widow, a son and two married daughters.         Newspaper: Portland Guardian (Vic.); Mon 27 Aug 1951; Page 2; OBITUARY
