NEARING THE BORDER
“THE SIGN OF THE CROSS” CHARIOT EXPEDITION.
(From BOB WHITE)
Holbrook, Monday.
Here we are at Holbrook, having covered in all 465 miles, more than half of our entire journey. We expect to be in Albury tomorrow (Tuesday) night, and then for the Victorian towns.
The trip to date has been chock-full of exciting incidents. Last week we passed through the following towns: Yass, Harden, Cootamundra, Junee and Wagga. The chariot was placed on display at all these towns. The interest it is creating right throughout the country is tremendous.
Next week we will pass through Chiltern, Wangaratta, Benalla, Euroa, Seymour, Heathcote and Bendigo.
It's all been wonderful experience, that is if one ever contemplates taking up bullock driving. Despite the numerous set-backs we have had, we are getting along nicely, and will surely reach Melbourne, even if I have to get into the harness and pull the darn thing myself.
