    There might be a cat - see note - but, who cares?

    beachcomber australia It is always our first tick box - does it have a clock for beachcomber! 😀 DannyM8 Clocks don't run around in a blur, by and large...

    National Library of Ireland on The Commons Sure any clock in a photo may have been stopped for years. I know we had a stuffed crane recently, but by and large the few dogs we see are alive in real time which is more than you can say about the clocks. beachcomber australia

Samuel James Reilly fishing at The Shallows, Clifton, Moreton Island, ca. 1899

from State Library of Queensland

    1906 - in the heathland swamp behind the Comboyuro Lighthouse on Moreton Island; an area once known as "The Shallows" or Clifton Waters. Source JOL 170525. The 1851 and 1861 census documents from England make this clear. He was a seaman who arrived in Sydney in February 1864 aboard the Castle Howard from England under the assumed name Samuel Riley. Instead of continuing his contract he "jumped ship" in June 1864 and deserted instead of sailing to Shanghai and back to London aboard the Castle Howard. He was charged with desertion, convicted, and spent 14 days in gaol. Riley worked as a seaman on ships between Sydney and China before settling in Queensland in about 1869 under the name Reilly. He worked as a mariner on coastal ships between Sydney and Cooktown. In April 1875 at Maryborough, he married Emily Compton - from Middlesex England - who had arrived in Maryborough aboard the Glamorganshire on 3 May 1874 (aged 20), accompanied by her sister Amelia (26) - also from Middlesex England.

Work on submarines, winter, Brooklyn (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

    From ussnautilus.org/submarines-at-the-brooklyn-navy-yard/
    "While no submarines were ever built in the Yard, the dry docks were a frequent home for repairs and short stays. The USS Porpoise and the USS Shark, built in 1903, spent time being refitted in the Navy Yard dry docks. It was also here that they were disassembled in 1908 to be transported to the Philippines where they served until 1919."

    which appears to be from the reverse direction and is dated Jan 25 1908.
