Port Augusta Reflections From 1900 Metual Improvement Talk
A reprint of a toy paper read before the Metual Improvement Social in Port Augusta in July 1361 recalls early strides, travels at high speed, and the shift from Port Augusta to fortified harbor plans. The piece praises local progress, dockside activity, and notable figures such as Sir Thomas Bygone, Bir W. Hulletton, and Port Augusta’s wharf expansion, while contrasting past and present transport and harbor developments.
