Quite the epitaph!
Johnny Mullagh (1843-1891), a West Wimmera local, was a star on the Aboriginal First XI cricket team that toured England in 1868. During the 45 matches played on that tour, he scored 1,698 runs at 23.68 and whilst bowling at a medium fast pace, took 245 wickets at 10.00. Today he lays at rest in the Harrow Cemetery.
