Interesting! Thanks for sharing whinfell. Incidentally, that note was printed in Melbourne in the old customs building that is now the Lindsay Fox's car museum. Regards Acorn
I hate to think what's in those state and national archives that nobody really knows about. This could easily have gotten lost or been lifted by a staff member years ago and nobody would have noticed. That doesn't bother me as much as knowing there's probably some really amazing historical discoveries and insights waiting to be stumbled across that may go ignored until who knows when because they don't have funding for enough archivists and researchers.
