This advertisement comes from The North Midlands Times of 1935. We skipped ahead to see the prices they were going to advertise later but they weren't there to be found. Strangely though, they did start selling medicines!

Henry Parkin arrived on the steamship Orsova in Fremantle, Western Australia 101 years ago on 23 January 1912. He proceeded to Carnamah in February after getting a job as a railway fettler. At that time what we now call the Carnamah townsite was just the railway station and one tiny shop. He later built a house known as "The Gables" (pictured here) and worked as a blacksmith, mechanic, undertaker and with his son provided Carnamah with electricity!

It's #Movember! Pictured here with an unmissable moustache is George Macpherson who arrived in Carnamah as a child in 1868. Just before Christmas in 1904 George went shooting for wild turkeys with his brother Donald and on the way home his gun discharged and shot him in the arm. Sadly his arm had to be amputated and he died from shock on Christmas Day. For more on George and his family see http://www.carnamah.com.au/macpherson-family.html
