THE LATE PRIVATE E. A. WOLFF.
Private Edward Wolff, who was 31 years
of age, was the younger son of the late
Mr. J. W. Wolff, who for a number of
years was a well-known organ builder in
Adelaide. Some time ago his mother, Mrs.
Emma Wolff, of Fisher-street, Malvern, re-
ceived an intimation that he had been
wounded in action on July 20 and taken
prisoner of war, but had since died at
Wahn, Germany, on September 5, 1916. As
a boy he attended the Unley Public School
and finished his education at Hayward's
Academy, Adelaide. He served his appren-
ticeship loyally as photo engraver and then
joined the Melbourne "Herald", and later
was employed by Messrs. Halliday Bros.
He was abroad for three years, visiting
France and America, to gain further ex-
perience at his trade. Private Wolff was
well known in art circles, and during his
stay in Paris received 12 months tuition at
Julian's Academy of Arts. He left America
shortly after the outbreak of war to return
to Australia, and enlisted. His genial and
manly disposition won for him the respect
and admiration of all who knew him. His
brother Ernest, formerly an Excise officer
in H.M. Customs, has also left for the
front.
