Could it be pauper?  Meaning poor

Thankyou for the reply
I thought it may be that but would it still be recorded as a paupers grave in 1975
I also have a  record that he died on the Murray river near 051 haven't got a clue what  that means

All places in NSW have code numbers.
051 is the number for Albury.
