For fifty years the late Mr Mueller was a prominent figure in the city and through all its vicissitudes and fluctuations during that period he evinced unswerving faith in the soundness of the Bendigo District and its mining resources, and his faith was demonstrated not by words merely but by steadfast and liberal support. The progress of the great mining industry of Bendigo has been due largely to his enterprise and his name will ever be linked with that of the late Mr George Lansell as one of the most prominent pioneers in proving the stability of this field. His close and unremitting attention to this companies represented in this address has been of great advantage to the shareholders whose interests he studied and conserved guarding them as his own and his name will ever by a synonym for just and honourable dealing while his kindly nature, unwavering courtesy and unostentatious charity stamped his as a true gentleman. Although his modest and unobtrusive nature caused his to refrain from occupying any public position, his memory is enshrined in the hearts of all Bendigonians. To you the loss is greatest, but we trust that Gold will sustain and strengthen you and that supported by the love of your children who we hope to see follow the example of their honoured site you will enjoy many years of happiness among the people who have learned to love and esteem you as well as you late dear partner now called to rest. Representing the subjoined companies and the many hundreds of shareholders interested therein we beg to subscribe ourselves your devoted friends. Bendigo, Victoria, September 1910"person, individual, mr. ernest mueller
