A Note

[xenith]

A copy of the note I was looking at today. There are two notes (but I couldn't find a copy of the other to stick in the photocopier), the other being the previous set of directions, sent to 'Lengan'. This one was sent to 'Logan'.

This is very cool.

Yes. I spent a few happy minutes looking through a box labelled "Brady material" (correspondence between officials, military/police & landowners). This is why I love volunteering at the museum.

You so need to write about bushrangers one day!

Oh, I do, but every time I think about it, I suddenly think of more urgent things that need to be written.
