"W. (Baden) Powell who played for Carlton some years ago, has been laid aside by a very serious illness in Ballarat. Locally a match was played for his benefit. The Carlton clubmen feel extremely sorry for thier old and brilliant centre-man, and the ladies and players of the Dark Blues will take up a subscription on his behalf at tomorrow's match. The committee has donated 3 pounds 3 shillings towards the amount being raised by the Ballarat Imperial Club." (Herald July 01 1904 p2)
