Mr. Loder has at Abbey Green a remarkably fine property, of ten thousand acres, in -which there is only a very small portion that isnt really (rood land; and taking it as a whole, its about as grand a piece of fattening country as ono would wish to see, albeit quite different to the wonderful flats lower down the river, near to Morpeth and thereabouts. My host, who likes his friends to enjoy themselves well, drove me about during the forenoon to see a sample of his Mr. Loder has not gone in for great house building, though the excellence of his property would quite justify a large expenditure in that direction; but he doubtless thinks his present comfortable quarters quite good enough for a country residence, and that when that ceases to be the case, he can remove nearer the metropolis. This is doubtless a very plain common sense view of the case ; but after all, Abbey Green is, for so many reasons, a desirable place to live, that I should be sorry to leave it for a house among the fashionable suburbs of Sydney Returning from our drive through the paddocks in. time for dinner, I had an hour afterwards to look through the gardens, where the young ladies have their summer house-about the pleasantest and most appropriate bush Boudoir; and here are all the garden accompaniments required by young people or old to make life pleasant in the bush. Lawns well kept for croquet, and lawn tennis; aviaries for large and small singing or ornamental birds ; in which, when I was there, were gold and silver pheasants, and since then there have been added to the feathered stock of Abbey Green, pheasants, Californian quail, and skylarks ,from the Zoological Society. The aviaries are extensive and convenient, with plenty of shrubs for shelter; for Mr. Loder and his family are real fanciers, and are fond of seeing their live animals comfortable and happy, which I may here say none of the pheasant tribe can be unless they have a place of concealment from the eye of man. By-the-bye, I must digress to say I was glad to find tho Zoological Society making good strides in this district. . At Duckenfield, Mininbah, andAbbey Green, the aviaries have already been replenished with pheasants, quail, and larks; and at Singleton I discovered that Mr. Croft, the courteous host of the Royal, has undertaken to receive subscriptions, and enrol members, so there s no excuse for people thereabouts not joining. I shall give myself another invitation to Abbey Green

Mr. George Loder, of Abby Green, died at an early hour this morning, aged 85. Deceased was born in Windsor in 1828. When 15 years of age, he travelled to one of his Father s station, Merah, on the Namoi, Here, after fifteen years experience, he commenced putting some property together for himself, marrying Miss Arndel, of the Hawkesbury, at Wee Waa. The issue of the first marriage was, two boys and two girls. After his experiences on the Namoi, Mr. Loder came to Abbey Green, re-purchased the home of his father, and for the past 52 years religiously adhered to the place, purchasing at intervals smaller holdings around. Singleton. Abbey Green consists of 10,000 acres of mixed land, including some rich flats. Mr. Loder was a breeder of merinos, also Herefords, and Black Polled Angus. Aiming to excel in the production of really first-class cattle, Mr. Loder Imported a number of Hereford and Polled Angus bulls. In the sheep department Mr. Loder scrupulously pinned his faith in merino, breeding from the choicest Colloroi rams. In his best days deceased possessed over 40,000 head of cat- tle, distributed through his different properties, one of which was at Brewarrina, where also he leased from the Government some four or five miles of back country.

The sideboards in the dining room at Abbey Green bristle with cups, vases, lumens, etc., which he won throughout the Commonwealth. Two gold medals were also presented to Mr. Loder himself — one for services rendered as a commissioner during the International exhibition held in Sydney in 1879, and the other as the owner of the champion Australian bull.
