Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Use Australian English Шаблон:Infobox military person Frances Emma "Fanny" Hines (26 August 1864 – 7 August 1900) was a nurse from Victoria, Australia, who served in the Second Boer War. She was the first Australian woman to die on active service.[1][2]
Early life
Frances Emma Hines was born on 26 August 1864 in Apsley, Victoria, the fourth daughter of Francis Patrick Hines and his wife Eleanor Mary Caroline (née Brewer).[3][4] She attended the Fairlight Private Girls School in East St Kilda (later the Clyde School) and then trained as a nurse at the Melbourne Hospital for Sick Children.[5]
Military service
In March 1900, Sister Hines was one of ten trained nurses who travelled on the Euryalus to South Africa with the Victorian Citizen Bushmen.[6]
Hines was nursing at Enkeldoorn with sole responsibility for 26 patients, which damaged her own health. She died on 7 August 1900 from pneumonia aggravated by malnutrition in an army hospital in Bulawayo, Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe).[6] She was buried with full military honours in Bulawayo. A marble cross was placed on her grave, funded by her fellow nurses and Victorian Citizen Bushmen.[7] On 27 September 1901, a tablet to her memory was unveiled by Major-General Downes at Fairlight School, erected through subscriptions of her former classmates.[8]
