A Letter to Aunt Patsy

While searching on Trove recently, I stumbled across this letter, written to the children’s section of newspaper The Melbourne Advocate in 1911. This young fellow by the name of Tom Carroll extols the virtues of his home town Clunes, and makes it sound like a rather lovely place to be! (And it still is.)

Today things are much different, and the number of fruit shops has decreased alarmingly! But we still have some wonderful shops to visit, of course, especially the one that belongs to Yours Truly.

lots of love
