From The Western Mail newspaper, Thursday 26
December 1929:
Country Towns and Districts - Three Springs and Mingenew -
Cereal and Pastoral Wealth - People and Properties
"Dr. M. A. Mayrhofer has been in Three Springs for three and a half
years, and, like most country medicos, he has a large area to cover,
a superabundance of work, and therefore, little leisure time. Dr.
Mayrhofer was educated at the Christian Brothers' College, Perth,
going from there to the Melbourne University, where he graduated in
1923. Since his return to Western Australia he has been a resident
doctor at the Perth and Children's Hospitals."
From The Irwin Index newspaper, Saturday 9
December 1950:
Death of Dr. Mayrhofer - Sad Loss to North Midlands - An
Untimely End
"It is with extreme regret that we record the death of Dr. M. A.
(Mario) Mayrhofer, of Three Springs, who passed away in a
metropolitan hospital on Thursday last. It was generally known in
the North Midlands, throughout which territory he had practised for
many years past, that he was in ill-health and had accordingly
sought advice and attention in the city, but maybe it was only his
relatives and intimate friends that were aware of the seriousness of
his condition, and therefore his untimely passing will doubtless
come as a shock to the district residents generally. Born in Perth
fifty years age, the late Dr. Mayrhofer was educated at the
Christian Brothers' College in Perth and graduated at the Melbourne
University. Shortly after entering the medical profession he
accepted an appointment at Three Springs about twenty-four years ago
and has practised at that centre ever since. Of a genial and happy
disposition, the deceased doctor was always most attentive to his
many calls and at all times extremely considerate towards his
patients, and there will be many who will long remember him for his
noble work in the cause of humanity. The late Dr. Mayrhofer, whose
remains were privately interred in the Anglican Cemetery at
Karrakatta yesterday afternoon, is survived by his wife, one son
(Peter) and one daughter (Margaret), to whom we join with residents
of the North Midlands generally in extending profound sympathy in an
extremely sad loss."
From The North Midland Times newspaper,
Thursday 14 December 1950:
"Obituary - Late Dr. M. A. Mayrhofer. Words cannot express the
heartfelt regret of the people of the North Midlands at hearing the
sad news of the demise of Doctor M. A. Mayrhofer, who passed away on
Thursday, December 7, at Mount Hospital where he had undergone a
major operation a fortnight ago. Since the operation his condition
had been very low but there seemed a bright spark on Wednesday when
it was reported that there was a slight improvement in his
condition. However during that night he took a bad turn resulting in
such a sad ending. Dr. Mayrhofer took over the practise at Three
Springs some 25 years ago from Dr. McAleer, now of Geraldton, and
during the years, his patient attention to his patients and his
courteous manner to all who met him he has endeared himself to all,
to the extent that each seemed to look upon him as a member of the
family. The whole of the North Midlands, and particularly Three
Springs, mourn the loss, [not] only of a doctor, but of a very dear
friend, and it is difficult to express the heartfelt sympathy for
his widow and two children, Peter and Margaret. His remains were
privately interred in the Karrakatta Cemetery."

From The Geraldton Guardian newspaper,
Thursday 10 February 1977:
Obituary - Death of "The Family Doctor"
Dr James McAleer, one of the traditional family doctors whose
name was a household word throughout the Geraldton region for more
than three decades, died to Three Springs at the weekend. Widely
known as a busy family doctor with a large practice, he was
persuaded to stand for the position of Geraldton's Mayor in 1945 to
succeed Mayor R. Carson. Dr McAleer was elected and continued in
office until 1957, when he was succeeded by Charles Eadon-Clarke. It
was during Dr McAleer's mayoral term that firm guidelines for the
future development of Geraldton emerging from World War 2 were laid
down. A town plan was prepared for the council by Mr Harold Boas as
the overall guidelines. Many major problems faced the town council
of that day, the bulk of them hinging on overall lack of finance.
The town's gas works was a continual drain on the electricity
undertaking - and the pressing need was for more electricity
generating plants as the town developed. Complication.
Complicating the whole issue was the change-over from direct to
alternating current in the town supply, a major job which had to be
tackled piece by piece. Sealing to the town streets was another
problem which loomed large. Veteran residents will recall the horror
stretch of gravel named Shenton Street which ran behind the new high
school. Geraldton's ratepayers were small in number, revenue
correspondingly small and overall development and improvement of
facilities such as sealed streets was slow. During his long term as
mayor Dr McAleer turned thoughts towards possible export of iron ore
through Geraldton. The whole exercise was concentrated at that time
on the Tallering Peak deposits north of Mullewa, but the political
climate of that day was not right. Iron ore export did come through
Geraldton years later, but from Koolanooka Hills deposits near
Morawa. Dr McAleer gave great encouragement to establishment of
Elderest Flats at Bluff Point for pensioners and during his mayoral
term there was consideration to developing Mahomet's Flats. But it
was not until long after Dr McAleer had left Geraldton to live in
the city that Mahomet's Flats development began. One of the streets
there had been named in his honour. Dignity. A veteran
councillor who served during Dr McAleer's mayoral term yesterday
described him as "a gentleman who lent a terrific lot of dignity to
the town." Dr McAleer's home and surgery were in Cathedral Ave where
the premises of Young Motors now stands and there the doctor and his
wife raised their family - daughter Margaret who is now Miss
Margaret McAleer, member of the Upper West Province, and son Tony
who is now president of the Three Springs Shire Council. At a
private family funeral at Three Springs on Tuesday the remains of
this man who served the Geraldton area for so long and faithfully
were laid to rest. Present Mayor Charles Mildwaters paid tribute to
Dr McAleer at last night's council meeting. Neville Thompson."
