On the Grafton to Dalmorton Road

  • beachcomber australia said:
    According to Google maps, this road is the 'Old Glen Innes Road', and that is the Boyd River. Once the main highway, it is now probably much the same as in the picture. Strangely there is only one place near Dalmorton which fits this arrangement of river, road, bridge and hills. We are north of the bridge looking south. - maps.google.com.au/maps?f=q&source=s_q&hl=en&... I wonder if that is the right place?

    trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/163788163 - the Sydney Mail, 19th December, 1896...the sketch titled 'On the Grafton-Dalmorton Road' that appears in this 'Picturesque New South Wales' montage looks to have been drawn from this pic...it's not a perfect match, so it's impossible to be certain...but I suspect the differences are due to artistic license and the nature of sketching vs photography. Per the accompanying note, the pics that appeared in the 'Picturesque New South Wales' montage were drawn from Kerry & Co photos...

    For anyone else like me who is having a bit of trouble reading it: You are hereby ordered to fall upon the rebells, the McDonalds of Glenco, and put all to the sword under seventy. you are to have a speciall care that the old Fox and his sones doe upon no account escape your hands, you are to secure all the avenues that no man escape. This you are to putt in execution att fyve of the clock precisely; and by that time, or very shortly after it, I’ll strive to be att you with a stronger party: if I doe not come to you att fyve, you are not to tarry for me, but to fall on. This is by the Kings speciall command, for the good & safety of the Country, that these miscreants be cutt off root and branch. See that this be putt in execution without feud or favour, else you may expect to be dealt with as one not true to King nor Government, nor a man fitt to carry Commissione in the Kings service. Expecting you will not faill in the full-filling hereof, as you love your selfe, I subscribe these with my hand att Balicholis Feb: 12, 1692. For their Majesties service
