Extraordinary animal death due to embedded three inch needle
Me G Dean reports a case where a sick animal died after a three inch rusted needle lodged in its heart was found during examination. Diamond mining yields near Crookwell show 24 diamonds and 25 pence of gold per yard sluiced, with larger quantities planned. A ferocious hairless skin from Snowy River and a dramatic encounter near Jamieson ends with a dog and owners escaping a strange attacker after shots were fired.
