Item Detail
Summary
The photographer, the Protector of Aborigines A.O. Neville travelled with Henry De Castilla and the Honorary government minister R.H. Underwood on a trip through the Kimberley in 1916. This section of the journey is described in an artlcle by Neville published in the West Australian 8 August 1916, p.9. After the car broke down the party transferred belongings into a buggy." After travelling about twenty miles we came upon Mr. Cox and Mr. Underwood camped near a stockyard, under a large shady tree, humorously referred to as "Cox Home stead" by the owner of the property, who, it seemed, rarely lived in his house, preferring to live in the open except in the wet weather- a mode of life which he had followed for 50 years, and certainly seemed none the worse for. The homestead proper was some fifteen miles away."
