  • Story: Two OLD Friends Meet (Oakleigh Times 1940)

    <p>Two old friends - if 95 and 94 can be called old - met at the home of Mrs S. D. Daniel, Palmerston grove, Oakleigh, on Monday afternoon.</p><p>Mrs Daniel, who celebrated her 95th birthday on Tuesday, was receiving the first few of many friends calling to congratulate her. Among her visitors was Mrs A. M. Wilkinson, Clyde street, Oakleigh.</p><p>Mrs Wilkinson, who is 94, was a friend of Mrs Daniel when they lived in England&nbsp;... and that&#39;s a year or two ago.</p><p>&nbsp;Mrs Wilkinson came to Australia 63 years ago, and Mrs Daniel 50 years ago. They have both lived in the Oakleigh district since their arrival from England</p><p><strong>Remembers Many Blacks</strong></p><p>Although keenly alive to affairs of the moment, both Mrs Daniel and Mrs Wilkinson were easily persuaded to talk of days long ago.</p><p>They recalled the days when Oakleigh was just an out-lying settlement from Melbourne, and black-fellows were frequent visitors to the lonely farm-houses.</p><p>Mrs Wilkinson said that she remembers a lubra (aboriginal woman) who used to camp, with her child and four dogs, on the present site of the Oakleigh Court House in Dandenong road.</p>
