     Fannie died on 17 September 1907 in 'Enmore', Toorak, Victoria, aged 41. Terribly sad and pathetic was the death of Mrs Hooper, Mrs Wesley Hall's sister. There seems to be a fatality amongst this family, for it has been most noticeable that the best-looking ones die early. The first Mrs Wesley Hall, who was a sister of the present one, was a great beauty even in London, but died long before her time. Although Mrs Hooper had not been well, no one supposed for a moment the end was at hand. This family of sisters are noted for their affection for each other, so that great sympathy is felt for them in their loss.
     Miss Malla Dempster is back in Melbourne after a long absence at the other side of the world, and had taken charge of the children of her late sister Mrs Arthur Hooper. Mrs Dunlop Jackson Jackson is also back for a short time I believe. As far as money is concerned, this family has been what is called lucky, but in other respects they have had more than their fair share of trouble. They have lost father and mother, and two sisters, the two beauties of the family too. Then Mrs Wesley Hall is never well two days together, so that the truth that "money does not bring happiness" has been proved in this family.
