Land Exchange at Boweya Draws Sharp Letter to Editor
A letter from A. Mitchest of Boweya dated 14 December 1921 criticizes Dr. Husband's land purchase demands tied to a disputed waterway. The writer alleges an intent to seize land at above its value and to withhold water, and notes prior negotiations with the shire president and engineer. He claims a forceful road-improvement threat would be unwelcome.
