Description

Accession[1967.0016] Consolidated Papers of the Carre Riddell FamilyIdentifierUMA-ITE-1967001600001Scope and ContentThe intended use of this book appears to have be as a Cattle Book from 1936, however there are no entries. The author of the diary turned the book around and used the book as a diary. As the chief use of the book was a diary, this is referred to as the front. Written inside front cover are pencil entries of cattle mustered. Preceding the diary is a page containing a few lines of verse, then a page entitled “Total number of S. and M. cattle including yearlings, 222”. The diary commences on 12th April 1843. At back of the diary is a register of the number of cattle branded and where they were left (undated). The following page records “Farm servants assigned to S:S at and after 1 June 1837”. The unused Cattle Book follows. 1Access StatusOpen for public accessRequest TypeRequest unitUnit1967.0016 Unit 0001Copyright StatusPublic domainConditions of Use and ReproductionThis item is out of copyright.
