This was a locally produced card for a religious meeting or convention. It seems the writer is a realtive of the Rev. Boulibee and came all the way from Australia for this meeting. No wonder she was "hauled to the platform"! She was probably the winner of the "Longest Journey To Get Here Award".

This card was mailed on the 27th of May and reached it's recipient in Australia on the 7th of July. When you look at communication time scales like this it's not wonder the telephone and telegraph were marvels.

In different ink, but in the same hand, "Boomarra Stall, Normanston Rd" is written by the stamp.
