Abstract

Joseph William Mellor married Emma Cranwell Bakes on 25 June 1899 at the Wesleyan Methodist Church in Mornington, Dunedin. Mellor affectionately referred to her as the “Boss” in his letters and cartoons. Emma Mellor was highly praised by many, including Joseph, for shielding him from interruptions and household worries that would have hindered his scholarly studies.
