Destructive bush fire devastates Albury district farms
A midday blaze from Huon Farm Jindern swept from Culcairn to Corowa in the Albury district aided by a strong southerly wind. The fire damaged or destroyed woolsheds, machinery, fencing, and thousands of sheep across Brae Springs and Gerogery areas, with homesteads saved only by hard station work. Estimates vary by property, with hundreds of thousands in losses and many animals perishing or requiring destruction.
