rugby league lost a great player and a true gentleman of the game over night. Brian ‘Chicka’ Moore. One of Newtown Jets Immortals and an ambassador for our great game
Chicka Moore RIP

• October 27, 2014 6:18PM AAP

ONE of the Newtown Jets’ rugby league players of the century, Brian `Chicka’ Moore has died following a long battle with illness.

Moore was a great of the now defunct NRL club, playing with the blue bags from 1962 until 1973 and also coaching the Jets in 1983.

Six years after he was named at centre in Newtown’s Team of the Century, Kangaroos international Moore passed away aged 70 over the weekend.

“Chicka was a player with an incredible try-scoring record,” said the NRL’s head of football, Todd Greenberg.

“In his 173 matches for Newtown, he scored 90 tries; that highlights what a player he was. In full flight, he was simply magnificent to watch.

“He was also a Kangaroo tourist and represented NSW, and then coached Newtown during its final year in the NSWRL.

“In 2008, he deservedly found a home at centre in Newtown’s Team of the Century. He will be missed by the game which he served so magnificently.”

Death of Sergeant Emerton.

Residents of Goulburn will learn with regret of the death of Sergeant Emerton, which took place at a quarter to six o’clock on Tuesday evening last. Sergeant Emerton arrived in the colony in 1857, being sent out by the Imperial Government with a number of other constables, among them being Mr. Read, now the Governor of Darlinghurst Gaol. Previous to his departure Sergeant Emerton had served for four years in the City of London Police Force. His connection with the New South Wales force extended over a period of 30 years, some fifteen of which were spent in and about Sydney and fifteen in Goulburn. He served in all grades of the service, from ordinary constable to sergeant. On the death of Constable Lloyd he was appointed lookup-keeper here, and retained the office for ten years. His appointment as sergeant was made three years ago, and three months since he retired on a pension. The deceased was a great favorite in Goulburn, his kindness of heart and his consideration to those who were for the time being in his charge being well known. He was also a good officer, working well both in a subordinate rank and as an officer. As lookup-keeper he always treated well-behaved prisoners even generously. Deceased had been ailing for two months from a complication of diseases, the principal cause of death being inflammation of the lungs. He leaves behind him a widow and three sons and three daughters. The remains will be interred to-morrow with Masonic honors.

Funeral of Sergeant Emerton. –

The remains of the late Sergeant Emerton were interred in the Wesleyan cemetery yesterday afternoon. The procession left the late residence of the deceased in Bourke street shortly after three o’clock, and comprised fifteen members of the Belmore Lodge of the Protestant Alliance Friendly Society, twenty-five members of the masonic fraternity, both in craped regalia, fifteen vehicles, three horsemen, and about a dozen persons on foot.

At the gate of the cemetery the Rev. Canon D’Arcy-Irvine M.A. joined the procession. After reading the first part of the burial service the Rev. A. J. Webb gave a short address, saying that Sergeant Emerton was a man whose long record attested that he had done his duty like a Briton and a Christian ; and that he had furthermore striven to do his duty with as much regard as possible for the feelings of others : a combination desirable in all men, but especially valuable in a police officer.

Men who were unswerving in their conscientious adherence to what was incumbent on them and also considerate to their follow-men would earn the respect of the citizens and leave a good name behind them when their bodies mingled with the dust. The deceased had never been ashamed of Christianity, and there was reason to believe he died a Christian.

The Rev. Canon D’Arcy-Irvine then read the remainder of the service.

After this the freemasons drew round the grave and the touching burial ceremony of the masonic body was performed, each member throwing a sprig of thyme on the coffin, with the closing words “so mote it be.”

BEFORE His Honor the CHIEF JUSTICE.

NEW MAGISTRATE.

In the course of the day, Edric Norfolk Vaux Morrisset, Esq., was sworn in a Magistrate of the territory of New South Wales.

The Sydney Morning Herald         Wednesday  2 March 1853         page 2 of 6

Mr. E. V. Morrisset, Superintendent of Police in the southern districts, accompanied by Mrs. Morrisset, arrived in Braidwood ( says the Dispatch ) on Monday from Goulburn. Soon after his arrival, the Superintendent ( with Mr. Walter Casey, Sub-inspector ) paid a visit to the gaol, and was highly pleased at the manner in which the prison arrangements are being carried out by Mr. Luke Densy, as well as the extreme tidiness and cleanliness of the cells and the establishment generally. The police barracks were also examined, and every thing found to be in tip-top order.

Intelligence from Goulburn.

Mr. E. V. Morrisset, Superintendent of Police and Deputy Inspector-General, died yesterday morning at his residence here. Deceased was son of the late Colonel Morrisset, who, in his time had charge of the convict establishment at Norfolk Island. Deceased filled the position of Police Superintendent at Bathurst and Maitland prior to his appointment to this district, which took place about the end of 1883 shortly after the death of Captain ( Henry ) Zouch.

Deceased was in his 57th year. As an officer he was thoroughly conversant with his duties, and knew how to discharge them, so as to win both the confidence and esteem of his subordinates.

Mr. Morriset had been in bad health prior to his death. The disease which affected him is known as Addison’s disease.

The Inspector-General of Police is expected here by to-nights train.

Evening News ( Sydney )                         Saturday  27 August 1887          page 4 of 8

THE LATE E. V. MORISSET.

IT is with extreme regret that we have to announce the death of a very able and popular officer of the police force in the person of Mr. Edric V. Morisset, superintendent of the Southern police district, and deputy inspector-general of police, which took place at 4 o’clock yesterday morning at his residence, Goulburn. The deceased had been for some time ailing, but, from the nature of his complaint, it was not thought that fatal consequences would be the result. He, however, took a change for the worse a few days since, and gradually sank until the vital spark departed at the hour mentioned. We may mention that the deceased had been in charge of the North-western district for nearly twenty years, his head-quarters being at Maitland; and during the whole of that lengthy period he discharged his duties, both as a public officer and as a private citizen, in a manner which gained for him universal approbation. Upon the introduction of the new Police Act in March, 1862. Superintendent Morisset, who had previously held the rank of inspector in the Queensland native police, received the commission of superintendent under that law, and since that time up to his death he was an active officer, and administrator of police improvement. Some few years ago upon the death of Captain Zouch, superintendent of police at Goulburn, the deceased received the appointment of Deputy Inspector-General of Police, and was transferred from Maitland to Goulburn. It is sad to relate, in connection with the deceased, that it is only a few months since his brother, Adolphus Morisset, police magistrate at Deniliquin, died.

Superintendent Morrisset had been married for many years, but had no issue, He was about 55 years of age, a native of the colony, and was a son of the late Colonel Morisset, well known in the early days of the colony. The country has sustained the loss of one of our most zealous and intelligent officers by the death of Superintendent Morisset. The deceased was a lover of manly sports, such as horse-racing, hunting, shooting, etc.

Newcastle Morning Herald & Miner’s Advocate       Saturday  27 August 1887       page 6 of 12

DEATH OF SUPERINTENDENT MORISSET. – For some time past the state of health of Mr. Edric N. V. Morisset, superintendent of police for the southern district, has been a source of anxiety to his friends. He was suffering from an uncommon disease known as Addison’s disease of the kidneys, and during the past week or two his illness had become so serious that hope of his recovery had been abandoned. We regret to record that the fears entertained of a fatal issue were sadly realised, and that Mr. Morisset passed away at an early hour yesterday morning, at his residence, Marston, North Goulburn.

The deceased gentleman was fifty-seven years of age and had been many years in the public service.

He was born in Norfolk Island, his father being Colonel Morisset of the 48th Regiment, commandant in the island and afterwards police magistrate at Newcastle and Bathurst.

Mr. Edric Morisset entered the colonial service in February 1853, and was commandant of native police in Queensland, at that time known as Moreton Bay and forming part of the colony of New South Wales. On the separation of Queensland in 185 he remained in the service there, and in 1860 was appointed inspector-general of police. About two years afterwards, for climatic reasons, he resigned this post and came to New South Wales, where in March 1862 he was appointed superintendent of police for the western district ; subsequently he was transferred to the Maitland district ; and shortly after the death of Captain Zouch, superintendent of police for the southern district, which occurred in October 1883, he was appointed his successor, a position he retained till his death.

He was married to Miss Lawson, daughter of the late Mr. William Lawson of Prospect, who survives him, but he had no family.

It is interesting to note that Mr. and Mrs. Morisset were brought from Norfolk Island as children by the late Captain Zouch.

Mr. Morisset was brother to the late Mr. R. R. Morisset, police magistrate of Deniliquin, whom he visited in his sickness and whose death a few months ago had a strong effect upon him.

At the time of his death Mr. Edric Morisset was the oldest superintendent of police in the service. He was a somewhat strict disciplinarian, but well liked by the men under his command. In private life, he was unostentatious and charitable. He was fond of sport and a good shot. He was formerly a promoter of the Northern Hunt Club, and tried to inaugurate a similar club here, but failed to enlist general support to the movement.

His funeral will take place to-morrow afternoon at the Church of England cemetery.

During the illness of Mr. Morisset his duties have been performed by Inspector Brennan of Yass, who remains in charge temporarily.

Goulburn Herald          Saturday  27 August 1887          page 4 of 8

The late Superintendent Morisset.

THE funeral of the late Mr. Superintendent Morisset took place on Sunday afternoon last. The morning was dull and threatening, and shortly after noon rain fell most copiously.   Not withstanding this a large company took part in the sad ceremonies. The procession moved from “Marston” about half-past three, being headed by six mounted troopers under the charge of Sub-inspector Casey, Braidwood. The coffin came next, and was borne to the church by six members of the police force. Many tokens of respect in the shape of wreaths were placed upon the shell. Four other members of the police, under the command of Sub-inspector Fenton, and twenty-one warders from the gaol, under Deputy-gaoler Graham, followed the body. Amongst the chief mourners were the brother of the deceased, Mr. H. Morisset; the Inspector general of Police, Mr. E. Fosbery; Captain Battye, Albury; Inspector Brennan, Yass; and Mr. T. K. Abbott, Sydney Stipendiary Magistrate. In the procession were many of the leading townspeople. The Bishop of Goulburn read the opening part of the burial service at St. Nicholas’s, and the procession then proceeded to the C.E. cemetery, where the service was concluded.

Former Morpeth policeman Jeff Smith dies of cancer

By ALAN HARDIE

Oct. 19, 2014, 9 p.m.

A popular police sergeant and grandfather who served at Morpeth for many years has died after battling a rare cancer believed to have begun after he was shot on duty 17 years ago.

Popular former Morpeth policeman Jeff ‘JJ’ Smith has died of cancer.

Sergeant Jeff Smith, known to all as “JJ”, died in the Mater Hospice in Newcastle ­yesterday morning.

Sgt Smith, in his early 60s, was shot and ­seriously wounded at Nelson Bay police station in 1997 when he and another officer were talking to a young man in the old charge dock.

The man suddenly grabbed Sgt Smith’s Smith & Wesson revolver from his holster and fired.

The bullet struck Sgt Smith in the body, ­narrowly missing another officer.

The gunman fled up the road chased by police, but he would not stop.

As he ran, the man shot himself under the chin and died.

For Sgt Smith, his wound 17 years ago was the end of his police career – and the start of his – desperate bid to recover.

Police spoke yesterday of the well-loved ­officer who served in Morpeth for many years and was highly respected by his colleagues and the local community.

His friend Barry Archer told The Mercury: “Sgt Smith died at the Mater Hospice following a battle with a rare form of cancer that started after he was shot.”

Sgt Smith had a son and two daughters and five grandchildren.

His partner for 13 years, who did not wish to be named, said: “JJ’s career was cut short so ­tragically and he battled ill health for 17 years.

“A very unassuming person who served at Morpeth police station for many years, JJ had a strong moral compass and he left his mark on many people.”

Nelson Bay police station has since been ­renovated, but an original brick still bearing a crease carved by the bullet on that fateful day has been retained in the wall as a reminder to young officers of how situations can occur.

Senior Constable Clinton Walshe and the bullet mark in the brickwork from the shot that wounded Sergeant Jeff Smith many years ago.

Superintendant Allan Thompson said it was believed the cause of Sgt Smith’s cancer was due to his gunshot injury.

“We believe what happened in Nelson Bay police station caused the start of his illness,” Supt Thompson said.

Sgt Ian Allwood, chair of the Port Stephens branch of the NSW Police Association, said: “Even today, that ­terrible incident in the police station lives with all of us.

“Sgt Smith is still regarded by his community and his peers for his bravery and his excellence.

“The sequence of events that led up to his last day at work is something he would never have expected.

“A man being questioned in the station’s old-style charge dock suddenly grabbed Sgt Smith’s revolver and fired, grievously wounding him.

“The gunman fled down Government Road pursued by police, but before he could be stopped, he shot himself under the chin.

“He would have come to work that morning with no idea of what would happen.”

A POLICE dog named after a slain officer was stabbed to death yesterday morning after successfully cornering a fleeing suspect.

Senior police yesterday paid tribute to veteran Police Dog Carts, who was raised by police and named after murdered officer Constable David Carty.

Carts and his handler Senior Constable Brett Williams, were called to Corrimal Surf Life Saving Club north of Wollongong just after 3am yesterday following reports of a break in. Two offenders allegedly fled the scene when police arrived, with officers apprehending one of the men. The second alleged offender, an 18-year-old Balgownie man, fled and was chased by Carts into nearby bushes and cornered.”It will be alleged Police Dog Carts was stabbed with a sharp implement and later died in a veterinary hospital from his wounds,” a police spokesman said yesterday. “On this occasion, Carts was not wearing a vest as there was no indication of those people on the premises having any weapons.”

Special stab proof vests were brought in after Police Dog Titan was stabbed to death three years ago but Carts was not wearing one because it was believed the alleged offenders were unarmed.

Titan was the first police dog to be stabbed in the line of duty. His killer Luke Graham Curtis was last year sentenced to seven years jail over the killing.

Chief Superintendent Wayne Benson said Carts had served NSW Police with honour and in his final act had secured the arrest of an alleged offender.

“Without doubt he served with honour, he has performed his task, that was what he was trained for and tragically he has died,” Supt Benson said.

He said Carts death also highlighted the terrible loss of Constable Carty who was murdered at Fairfield in 1997.

“The death of David Carty still lives on in all our memories and whether it is this incident or any other, it is just the nature of police work,” Supt Benson said.

Carts’ first handler Sen-Constable David Williamson last year paid tribute to the special connection between his charge and Constable Carty when he took Carts to a memorial service.

Both alleged offenders were charged with aggravated break and enter and take conveyance without consent of owner.

Carts‘ alleged killer was also charged with kill or seriously injure animal used for law enforcement and use weapon to resist arrest. He was refused bail and will face court today.
