Inter District Snippets From Lithgow to Murwillumbah
An eclectic recap notes a Lithgow white Leghorn laying an egg with an implausible length, 1144 inches in circumference, and a Macquarie Shire push with 14 returned soldiers aiding Repatriation efforts. Vincent Perry died after a head injury from a tree limb in a Weat Wyalong back race. A banana land dray near Murwillumbah traded at £172 per acre, profit noted. An aviation mishap near Beechworth forced an emergency landing as a plane skirted horses, one horse dying. Joseph’s Convent at Mullumboby burned, destroying a new £500 dormitory and belongings. Bishop Carroll opened the building the following Sunday.
