Details: LIEUT.-COL. HAROLD KNOWLES BEAN. of Wallsend, near Newcastle, whoso death took place on board the hospital ship Kanowna on September 26. He was about 60 years of ago, and was born near Manchester, England. His father had a medical practice at Mosley, England, and during the early part of Lieut.-Colonel Bean s medical career he assisted his father. He left England about 30 years ago, and practised in Victoria for two or three years. He re- turned home, but came out to Australia again shortly afterwards and settled at Wallsend, where he practised from 1890 to 1914, when his services were accepted by the military. Lieut.-Colonel Bean served in the South African war. He held the rank of major in the Fourth Regiment, and when the Second Light Horse Field Ambulance was formed for field service he was placed in charge. Shortly after the present war broke out Lieut.-Colonel Bean offered his services, which were accepted. Two years ago he left Queensland with the Second Light Horse for Egypt, and saw service in Gallipoli. He was invalided to England last November, and on recovering went to Egypt in charge of the Third Light Horse Field Ambulance. He was in Egypt six or seven months before he became ill a second time, and did not recover. Mrs. Bean and her daughter were with the late Lieut.-Colonel Bean in England some months ago, and they are now returning to Australia by the R.M.S. Mongolia, which is due to arrive at Fremantle shortly
