Some few weeks ago the residents of Bloomfleld presented Privates Frank Wright and Simon Buttle with a wristlet watch each, and as there were some funds over, It was decided to procure a
fountain pen and wallet for the two brave lads, who have left to take their part in upholding the honor of Australia.
