Friday January 26, 1906 Another Vehicular Accident Mr. RICHARDSON, the well known tea traveller, had an unpleasant experience on Wednesday evening. While he was closing a gate entering the property of Mr J. H. KYTE of Grass Flat, the horse, attached to a hooded gig, bolted. The weight of the hood and the jolting caused the seat to break and the hood and the seat fell to the ground. The gig turned up on it's side and bounced on it's wheels again, four times before turning upside down, the horse also falling. The horse got up and stood till Mr RICHARDSON came up. The gig is in Mr WOOLMER'S shop in pieces. Daryl Crabtree Gladstone C.Qld Australia West Wimmera Mail extracts are on the Web www.ballaratgenealogy.org.au/goroke/index.html

The last bag of a huge stack of wheat in front of the mill was being stacked in the shed, BAKER called to Bob BRAY, who was driving the horse, to pull up, at the same time grasping the pulley rope.

Friday January 19,1906 VEHICLE WRECKED A few days ago Mr. HOOD, of Duchembegarra, drove out to one of his paddocks to look at some bags of wheat. He left the horse and trap on the road in charge of a boy while he went into the paddock. The flies were troublesome, and in shaking it's head the horse, which was a medium draught, shook the winkers off. It then bolted, but had not gone far when the buggy axle between the wheel and body struck a tree. The boy was thrown violently between some stumps, but he miraculously escaped injury. The trap was wrecked excepting the wheels, the wood and iron being broken and twisted into all sizes and shapes. Only a few days before the accident, Mr HOOD had brought the buggy home from Mr. R. C. WOOLMER'S, freshly done up, and the pieces of the buggy now lie in the same shop. WEST WIMMERA MAIL WEB SITE www.ballaratgenealogy.org.au/goroke/index.html Daryl Crabtree Gladstone C.Qld Australia

Friday January 19,1906 Mr. H.C. WOOLMER, coach builder of Natimuk, has just completed to the order of Mr Alf WILLS, of Tooan, a very handsome pony express. The buggy, while being strong and roomy, is very light in draught. The undercarriage is particularly well ironed and herein lies the strength. Well seasoned hickory and kauri have been used, while the trimmings are of American duck. The wheels are of the Savern patern, with half patent axles. Altogether, Mr. WILLS will take delivery of a buggy not only highly suitable for his requirements, but one in the construction of which much care and good workmanship have been used, employed. In looking through Mr WOOLMER'S workshop we noticed a clever and simple device for blowing the bellows, it is a large wheel with a belt around it and connected with the fan. The wheel is driven by the lever in the old style. A child almost can work the lever, while the blast is exceptionally strong. Mr WOOLMER has introduced other labour saving appliances, so that his shop is getting very up to date.
