A photographic postcard addressed to May Mortlock from Barney Carlon of Yarragundry, dated 13 November 1909:
"Dear May, That other jolly old card was a dead nark, couldn't have a scribble at all May. But never mind will tell you all, when I see you again. Well May I hope you will be pleased with these Photo's. Did you have a good time at the Dance, them jolly girl's of ours were a failure couldn't smooge you know May xx Best love, Barney."
The image shows men, women and children enjoying a picnic. There is a lot of activity in the background - could this have been a Show Day?
