    Notes:

    There is a 1923 drowning death in Coburg, Melbourne that likely is him.
    Following is a report from the newspaper, Argus (Melbourne, Vic. : 1848 - 1957), Tuesday 4 September 1923, page 4
    FARMER CRITICISED.
    Leaves Body in River.
    Having been informed that the body of a man had been seen in the Yarra at Templestowe, John Cox, a farmer, continued milking his cows. He went to look for the body on the following day. His action was strongly criticised by the deputy coroner (Mr. Phillips) at the morgue yesterday, when an inquiry was held into the death of Eben Gammie, aged 67 years, who was found drowned on August 27. Cox said in evidence that he was milking cows at about 5 o'clock on the afternoon of Sunday, August 26, when he was told that there was the body of a man in the river. He told a young man to inform the police, and continued milking his cows. On the following morning he went to the river and found the body of Gammie.
    Mr. Phillips. - It is extraordinary that a man hearing of a body in the river does not do something. Probably you were more interested in your cows, and had they been in the river you would have gone.
    Continuing, Mr. Phillips said that one would think a man would inform someone else even if he were too busy to take a human being out of the water. It seemed a clear case of suicide. He returned a verdict of "found drowned," there being no evidence to show how Gammie got into the river.
