Place: Goulburn

Details: The death occurred at St. John of God Hospital on Saturday morning, of Dr. Walter Fisher, aged 81, father of Mrs. A. P. Gillespie,. of Clifford Street, Goulburn. Dr. Fisher, who had been in falling health for some time, lived at. Manly, but had come to Goulburn for some weeks, when it. was found necessary that he should enter hospital. Born in Melbourne, Dr. Fisher became a dispenser at the Prince Alfred Hospital there, and later with his young wife, travelled, to England by the sailing ship Ellora. Mr. Fisher, as he then was, went as a kind of adviser to the captain of the vessel, who, was not in the best of health. The trip lasted four months and took them round Cape Horn. They experienced a very rough and exciting voyage. Arriving in Scotland, Mr. Fisher studied medicine, at the Edinburgh University, where he secured his degree. He came to Australia and for many years practised in Brisbane where he was Government Medical Officer. He was the first doctor to diagnose the outbreak of bubonic plague in Queensland. He was also a surgeon in the Queensland Navy before the days of Federation. He went to Victoria, but ultimately came to New South Wales, practising at Walgett and for many years at Mayfield, Newcastle. All his life Dr. Fisher had taken the keenest of interest in politics and the influence of legislation on people. He retired to Manly, giving the whole of his time to the preparation of articles, books and booklets on these subjects. He was in correspondence with many of the leading figures in world politics, Mr. Anthony Eden being among them. He was in touch also with all the Australian political leaders. Dr. Fisher leaves a widow, two sons, Mr. Athol Fisher, of Manly, and Mr. Julian Fisher, of Sydney; and one daughter, Mrs. Gillespie.
