URL5: Dr TILLBRICH, it will be remembered, succeeded Dr CADE [at Ballarat Hospital], who went with
one of the contingents to South Africa, and who is expected to return shortly [c8.1902].
URL6: The officers of the [Field Hospital and Bearer Company] corps are - Major TA GREEN DSO, Major RN HOWSE VC, Captain FD JERMYN, Lieutenant WA JAMES, Lieutenant AJ NYULASY, Lieutenant HA FORMBY, Lieutenant DD CADE.
URL7: The Ballarat Hospital is about to lose the valued services of the junior medical
officer, Dr CADE, who has been offered and accepted an appointment with the Commonwealth Field Hospital, which will leave Sydney on the 12th inst. [2.1902] for South Africa. Dr CADE asks that he be relieved of his position in the course, of two or three days, and mentions that he has arranged for a locum tenens to act for him during the remainder of his term of office. Having regard to the fact that the committee of the institution will not meet for a fortnight, and that Dr CADE’s departure is urgent, it is probable that the matter will be dealt with by the president (Mr Geo. KING). During his sojourn of
about two years at the institution Dr CADE has been untiring in his labors, and his departure will occasion great regret amongst the staff and the nurses. The
patients who have experienced his kindly attentions will also very much miss him.
