PIONEERS' PICTURE.

MEN WHO MADE HISTORY.

Much has been said from time to   time of the debt we owe to the pio-   neers—the sturdy men of indomit-   able courage who came to this new   land in the early days of its discov-   ery and carved out homes for them-   selves and their families from the   primeval forest. We today enjoy   the results of their arduous toil, but   are apt to forget the men to whom   we are indebted. It is that the pre- sent generation and those who follow   afterwards may have some idea of   the manner of men they were who   took part in the settlement of the   district and the establishment of the   city, that an effort is being made to secure for the public gallery the col- lection of photographs now in the possession of Mr C. Foyle. This was   the object in view when the picture   was compiled, but, unfortunately, it was never carried to finality. For   the information of those interested a   list of the names of the pioneers in-   cluded in the picture is appended.   Donations towards the purchase of   the picture will be received by the   Mayor or may be left at the "Stan-   dard" office (says the Warrnambool "Standard"). This is an opportunity   to give practical effect to our appre-   ciation of what, we owe to the pio-   neers.   William Wall, 1846; Jacob Wood,   1851; James Coulstock, 1848; John Glass Cramond, 1855; James Dickson,   1855; Walter Davies, 1856; Matthew McGhie, 1841; John Russell Evans,   1856; Wm.
