    Here is Mr. Timothy Tobin of William Street, an Insurance Agent.

    He works for the Royal Liver Friendly Society.

    His daughter niece Mary is a clerk there.

    I think this is probably the office staff on an outing, and Mary may be here.

    beachcomber australia I was using my own spectacles to zoom in on their faces too. It's so interesting that even in a habit that was supposed to quash individuality, some personalities could not be suppressed.

    Sisters of Mercy
    “The sisters of mercy, they are not departed or gone
    They were waiting for me when I thought that I just can't go on
    And they brought me their comfort and later they brought me this song
    Oh, I hope you run into them, you who've been travelling so long”
