Transcript

Coals were not in the early days much used. New South Wales coal cost money (as did the Home article) when some happened to come. Local coal only gradually came in to use, it may be said since reliable supplies of good coal came round from the West Coast.

In /55 Malvern Coal was £6 a ton. In /61 Grey Coal used on Lord Worsley steamer. Piece given to “Museum”.
