Details: One of the best known and respected citizens of Newcastle, in the person of Mr. John Burke, died yesterday morning at his residence, 96 Church-street,. shortly before eleven o clock. The late Mr. Burke. who was 87 years of age. was born in Ennls, County Clare, Ireland, and came to Australia when a boy with his parents. They landed at Melbourne, and went to the Bendigo gold rush, and afterwards he went on to another gold rush at Rockhampton. Eventually the family settled in New South Wales, and when the late Mr. Burke was a young man he came to Newcastle. He started in a small way as a produce merchant, although he met with disaster early, his pluck and perseverance carried him through, and the result of his energies is the firm of J. Burke and Sons, Limited, of which he was the governing director. The misfortune that overtook him a few years after he had started in business was the destruction of his horses, stables and bulk store in Hunter-street West. His produce store at that time was at the corner of Scott and Market streets, on the site afterwards occupied by the Shortland Hotel. General sympathy was felt for him, and a subscription list that was opened met with a liberal response from the various parts of Australia, but as illustrating his fine spirit, the young merchant declined to accept anything, stating that he would start again from scratch. He did and made good. Subsequently he removed his store to a site near the corner of Hunter and Brown-streets, and while there had built the premises later occupied by the firm in King-street. Notwithstanding his weight of years he maintained a keen and active Interest in the business right up to the time that he was taken ill, ten day before his death. His was a familiar figure passing to and from his office each day, walking down from his house, and riding home in a cab. A resident of Newcastle for more than 60 years, he had a large fund of information about the early days of the city and district. He was keenly interested in all branches of sport. In the early days of the Newcastle Jockey Club he was honorary clerk of the scales and was always an ardent supporter of cricket and aquatics. For many years he was associated with the old Newcastle Cricket Club, and used to take a prominent part in the annual sports meetings held by the club on the old cricket ground. The Newcastle New Years Day Regatta had in him a staunch and active supporter. A man of modest retiring disposition he did not figure very largely in public life, but for a number of years he was a valued member of the Newcastle Hospital committee. In polities old residents will remember him as a keen supporter of Mr. Alexander Brown, M.L.C.. the late Mr. James Fletcher. and Mr. George Alfred Lloyd, all of whom represented Newcastle in the State Parliament at different periods, The late Mr. Burke is survived by his widow, three sons, Messrs. J. Burke managing director of Messrs. J. Burke and Sons, Limited, A. A. Burke. and F. D. Burke (directors), and two daughters, Mrs. W. A. Reid and Miss Addie Burke; and Mr. P. Burke, of Dawson-Street. Cooks Hill, is a brother.
