Title
George Mclean, Young, New South Wales, to William C. Williamson, Ahory, Richhill, County Armagh, 15 April 187(0)
Description
Describes changes in Australian gold mining: once there were 20,000 independent miners in the local diggings, but now all the mining is by corporations, which employ heavy machinery and Chinese laborers. Writer prefers storekeeping to mining: "it's a much surer game." Praises the Australian climate and rich soil. Mentions horse racing, circus, and teaching Sabbath School for the Anglican church.
