Oxford
``Oxford, in the county of Ashley, is divided into two parts, known respectively as East and West Oxford ... The district is well supplied with stores and business premises, and there are numerous churches. There are capital public schools at both places, and there is a first-rate library, which is centrally situated, not far from the sale-yards. ... The first settlers came to the district towards the end of the fifties, when the whole country was covered with a dense bush, popularly named black birch, but, correctly, beech. The bush has been cleared out back into the mountain ranges, where, however, several mills are still working. The chief industry is connected with timber, but there is a considerable trade also in green flax. There is a park of 216 acres, thirty acres of which have been laid out as a racecourse. ...''

“Our country is changing. The old is falling, passing. The new, almost here, taking form, replacing. There is an urgency, a pressing, futile need to grasp. Without details, our memory will fail, and we will become groundless.”

Work in Progress ...
