Description | Abut 150 local residents were seated 'on boxes, cases, or anything available' for an open air concert at White Feather (present Kanowna); others 'squatted in the dust,' or stood. 'The stage being a fruit case ... answered very well for the occasion.' The concert was a benefit to a 'brother miner who had ... lost his son.' Items were interspersed with boxing bouts. The programme included skirt dancing and step dancing, and concluded with 'a buck set of quadrilles.' | |||||||
