The last post for the Diary


A cousin, and a reader of the diary, sent me copy of this photo which is on the Picture Australia database, and part of the collections of the State Libraries of Queensland, South Australia and Victoria. The South Australian entry's description has - The iron barque 'Nairnshire', 1027 tons, at anchor. One of the ships owned by The Shire Line / Thomas Law and Co., Glasgow. The negative was taken in 1895.
