From The Irwin Index newspaper, Saturday 21 May 1927:
"Business Change in Carnamah - Arrival of Mrs. E. Cowderoy - A recent arrival in Carnamah is Mrs. E. Cowderoy, who has taken over the proprietorship of Wylie's store from Mr. Wylie who is shortly to open a General Motors Showroom. The store passed into the hands of Mrs. Cowderoy on Monday last and, although she intends to run all the old lines, Mrs. Cowderoy is going to pay particular attention to drapery, millinery and boots and shoes. Mrs. Cowderoy is herself a milliner, and will be prepared to accept orders for hats made to measure. The present quarters in Wylie's old store are only temporary, and in a very short time new premises will be erected on the corner block right opposite the Carnamah railway station. Next week Mrs. Cowderoy will receive a special consignment of new season's goods, which will be the latest of Perth fashions in millinery, drapery and footwear. Something of the sort has been a long felt want in Carnamah, and we have no hesitation in saying that once the people round about have sampled the quality stocked by Mrs. Cowderoy they will deeply appreciate the ability and courtesy of a most capable connoisseur."

From The North Midland Times newspaper, Friday 20 September 1938:
"Tragic Accident - On Thursday of last week a tragic accident occurred at Moora when Lewis Fairclough, a young man, accidentally shot himself with fatal results. It appears that on Thursday afternoon the unfortunate young man intimated his intention of going shooting and when he did not return home that evening his mother was not unduly worried as it was thought that he was probably spending the evening with his grandmother. However, when he did not return on Friday morning a search party was organised and his remains were discovered that afternoon. An inquest was held and a verdict of accidental death returned. A widow, mother and one younger brother are left to mourn their loss. The late Mr. Fairclough was in his early twenties and was particularly popular with the young people of the Moora district, being an outstanding athlete. He was a nephew of Mrs. Sheridan, of Carnamah."

Fennell, farmer of Perenjori, were extracted from a smouldering heap of ashes in a paddock, one mile from his homestead, by Constables Anderson and Bayliss on Thursday morning, July 30. The barrel of a 22 gauge rifle was found near the ashes. On Tuesday, July 28, Mr. White, Manager, Agricultural Bank, Perenjori, received word from Fennell, that someone should be sent out to his farm to look after the stock and machinery. On investigations Fennell could not be found and a search party was attended with unsuccessful results on Wednesday. On July 30 Constables Anderson and Bayliss picked up Fennell's tracks at his letter box on the Rothsay Road, following these to the middle of the paddock they were confronted with a smouldering heap of ashes and stumps. From these were extracted charred human bones, believed to be the remains of Fennell. On Saturday, July 25, at the Perenjori Police Court, R. J. Fennell pleaded guilty to a charge of having threatened E. R. Anderson, farmer of Perenjori. Fennell was bound over to be of good behaviour for six months on a personal bond of £50. An inquest was held at Perenjori on Monday last by Mr R. F. Fullerton, J.P., Acting Coroner, on the death of Raymond Joseph Fennell. After hearing evidence a verdict was returned that death was caused by a gunshot wound and burning, self-inflicted, and that there was no direct evidence to show the state of deceased's mind at the time of death. Fennell's remains were interred in the Perenjori cemetery on August 3."
