Hi Lyn, Thanks for the feed back on the Land Sale re: "W W Mail", it spurs me on. I am looking at getting the Casterton News from 1906-1918, to research something I found in the W. W. Mail, but more on that later. Cheers, Daryl Crabtree PS Will keep an eye out for your surname interest. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Lynette Joy Bateson" <Bateson.Lyn@uq.net.au> To: "Daryl Crabtree" <crabtree@tpgi.com.au> Sent: Thursday, January 03, 2002 11:26 PM Subject: Land Sale 1/02/1906 > Hi Daryl > Thaanks for this info re: Purchase of Mr H.
