Biographical notes for Julius (Jules) Meincke
His obituary was in 'The Advertiser' 3 November 1943 : Mr Jules Langdon, MP, Independent member for Thebarton in the House of Assembly, died yesterday at a private hospital at the age of 71, following a sudden illness at Parliament House on Thursday, when he spoke for about an hour on his motion that special efforts should be made to develop phosphate rock deposits in this State. He then walked out, and while the debate was proceeding on his motion, collapsed in a corridor. He was taken in an ambulance to a private hospital.
Mr Langdon's motion was well received by members and is still on the notice paper.
After questions and formal business today, the Assembly and the Council will adjourn to enable members to attend the funeral, which will leave 5 Huntriss Street, Torrensville, at 3:20pm, for a service at the Holder Memorial Methodist Church, Fisher Terrace, Mile End, and then for the Mitcham Cemetery. Parliament will resume its sittings at 7:30pm.
Mr Langdon has represented Thebarton since 1938 when it first became a separate District. He was born at Kapunda and undertook many successful building contracts.
Mr Langdon was a member of te Thebarton Town Council for 15 years, including five and a half years as mayor, and Mrs Langdon is mayoress of Thebarton for the batchelor mayor (Mr O R Turner). Mr Langdon leaves two sons, Messrs A L and H Langdon of Torrensville, and two daughters, Mesdames S Ramsay of Torrensville and L Trembath of York.
Whether a labour candidate will be nominated for the vacancy will be considered by the executive committee of the State Branch of the ALP on Monday, and its recommendations will be dealt with by the ALP Council on th following Thursday. The Council has power to select a candidate or it may call for nominations. (end of obit.).
