Dear Monument Australia visitors, we are a self-funded, non-profit organisation, dedicated to recording monuments throughout Australia. Over time the costs of maintaining this website have risen substantially (in fact they are probably larger than those of many companies who exist for profit). In the past we have borne all the costs associated with maintaining the website but we are now having difficulties in paying the monthly expenses.
If Monument Australia is useful to you, please make a donation to keep this historical and educational resource available. Your help would be greatly appreciated.
Dr E. W. DeanePrint Page 
The gates commemorate Dr E. W. Deane, a former hospital surgeon (1905 -1916,) who died on active service in Egypt during World War One.
On Wednesday afternoon the gates erected to perpetuate the memory of the late Dr E.W. Deane, in front of the Maryborough Hospital, were formally declared open by the Mayor (Cr G. Frost). The late doctor was for 13 years house surgeon at the hospital, and was universally esteemed for his endearing personality. At the outlbreak of war he served as a captain in the Australian Army Corps and died in Egypt in April, 1916. The gates, which are of handsome design were erected by public subscription.
The Ballarat Courier (Vic), 8 June 1918.
