Description: Reminiscence of the flour mill in the Manuherikia Valley, Omakau. This history could have been written by Gordon Glassford Leask as there may have been a family connection with the mill. A Mr S Leask was on the founding committee of the Tiger Dale Flour Milling Company in 1873. The history covers the period from 1869 when the idea of a mill in the Omakau area was first mooted, through to 1966 when the mill site became the headquarters of a weedspraying business. The narrative details the changing ownership of the mill, the local personalities involved in the running the business and the commerical transactions surrounding it. Traces the history of the flour mill established in Omakau in 1873 Source of title - Transcribed from item Quantity: 1 folder(s). 0.01 Linear Metres. Physical Description: Typescript (photocopy)

Description: John Bryce in military uniform, sawing through the leg of a recumbent Maori man. The leg is marked 'flour' and the other leg, marked 'Sugar' has already been removed. A chopping block with axe and chisel are in the foreground, a palm tree to the right. In the background is an exaggerated version of Mount Taranaki, with four military tents in a field and three men ploughing the ground beyond a fence on the right. The cartoon is a reference to the Government's treatment of the Maori passive resisters at Parihaka. Bryce was Minister of Native Affairs and of Defence in 1881 The cartoonist's initials match those of two artists one being Edward Payton; however his monogram was different and the drawing of the figures is quite amateur, so Payton is unlikely to be the artist. The other possibility is Edward Pharazyn. The style of monogram appears to be his, and he commonly signed his work with his initials The stick figures across the fence to the right probably represent the 'ploughmen of Parihaka' who continued to plough their fields in defiance of a Government ban on the activity. The Government also attempted to starve the protesters into giving up their resistance Other Titles - Divers, diverse Inscriptions: Recto - bottom right - artist's initials E. P. Jr. [or ft for fecit?] at the foot of the tree; also a pencilled note in the hand of Alexander Turnbull, 'Evidently war in Taranaki - Parihaka?' Quantity: 1 b&w art print(s). Physical Description: Lithograph 230 x 280 mm Provenance: Collection of Alexander Horsbugh Turnbull.
