Sudden Death of Rev Daniel Horan at Bacchus Marsh
Friday afternoon at St Bernard's presbytery Bacchus Marsh saw the sudden death of Rev Daniel Horan after a period of ill health. He collapsed in his room after a brief verandah talk with P O Hagan and died of heart weakness. A state funeral followed at St Bernard's with about 35 priests present and a long procession to Maddingley cemetery. Horan built up the Catholic cause in the parish, leaving an imperishable memorial through church, presbytery, schools, and various local works and charities. He was born in Limerick, emigrated to Victoria, and died a poor man whose charitable acts included flour distributions.
