"John Robert Murrell was born at Lumsden on the 14th September, 1886; and his earlier training as a guide commenced on the Milford Sound track, in which district he was keenly interested. Later on he made some noteworthy ascents of several of the principla peaks in that district, including Mt. Heart, Mt. Balloon, Mitre peak, Mt. Elliott, and he also ascended Castle Mountain, Cathedral Peaks and Mt. Aspiring. He joined the guiding staff at the Hermitage in the season of 1915-16, when he did some very useful work, and showed himself to be a keen and enthusiastic mountaineer. During the season he made the ascent of Mt. Sealy, Mt. Montgomery, the third peak of De La Beche, and also the ascent of Mt. Cook by the Linda Route. He left New Zealand with the 30th Reinforcements, attached to H. Company, of the NZRB, was killed in action on the 8th September, 1918, near Gouzecourt Wood, and was buried at the village of Metz-en-Couterre. Thus a young mountaineer has gone from us, having done his share and made the great sacrifice in the Empire's cause.
