UnUsual Specimen Arrival and Historic Family Record Noted
An unusual specimen will arrive at Brisbane Museum found by Mor. L. Jones while constructing a crossing over the Williame River near Clancurry. The piece resembles a portion of human food with bandaged remains and a deceased caretaker. A dream linked to a missing brother in America led to locating him in a New York hospital with train fever. Descendants of John and Daniel Saten trace a large clan with limited poorhouse exposure, while pensioned veteran Mr. George Hundy, 67, maintains a remarkable athletic tally and strain record through the years.
