It's been a pretty sad week for Aussies, losing a number of our young diggers. Lest we forget their sacrifice and service to our nation and the world.

My father was never one for material possessions, so after his death there were not many personal belongings to sort out. In a small box in his bedside cabinet I found a couple of miners pit tallies (or tokens as they are sometimes called) from his early days when he worked as a miner.
I found someone who could mount them onto key fobs and the image shown here is one of the two. When I carry the keys, it's a small way of having a little bit of him with me.
A TOKEN is the topic for Monday 14th October 2019

The Shields Daily News for 1 June 1906 reports:
“A SMART OFFICER. THEFT AT CHIRTON.
At North Shields Police Court today, Thos. Strong, miner, Chirton, was charged with having stolen from Mr Sisterton’s market garden at Chirton on the 26th ult. a quantity of rhubarb, value 1s, and further with having committed a similar theft this morning.
PC R. Askew stated that on the 26th ult., in consequence of a complaint received from Mr Sisterton, he went to the market garden kept by that gentleman. He examined some footprints in the garden and traced them to the fence, where he found a quantity of rhubarb leaves and a miner’s token bearing the number ‘34’. This morning at 4.20 witness was concealed in the garden and he saw the prisoner climb over the fence, go to the rhubarb bed and cut a bunch. Witness then came out of his place of concealment, and after a chase, caught the accused.
Upon searching him at the police station he found in his possession a number of tokens bearing the same number as the one he found in the garden on the 26th. He charged him with the theft on that date and he replied “Well, I will have to take the weight of it”. Mr Sisterton having given evidence as to the value of the stolen rhubarb, the accused, who had nothing to say, was fined 5s and costs on each charge, and ordered to pay 1s 3d, the value of the rhubarb”.

September days are here,
With summer's best of weather,
And autumn's best of cheer."
