1893 Australian Town and Country Journal |
Mrs.
Brown, wife of Mr. E. G. Brown, M.L.A. for the Tumut, on the 21st
instant performed the ceremony of opening the fine new bridge which
has been erected at the junction of the Tumut and the Little Rivers, at
a cost of about £4000. There
was a large crowd of people pre- sent, and many speeches were made. The
bridge was named "The Shelley," in honor
of Mrs. Shelley, the first white lady dwelling in Tumut, but now a
resident of Marrickville. |
