there is no record as to when his business ceased, there is no further mention of a tailor in Milparinka. E.5 Bakery. For a period in 1893 at least a bakery and general store was operated by the lessee of the Government Well at Milparinka, as F.C.Bamess advertised separately as lessee of the well, and as a baker and general storekeeper -"Picnics and Wedding Parties catered for."(Sturt Recorder, 2 June 1893:1). It is possible this business was a step in the transformation of W.C.Palmer and Co., to 'Cocky's Store'. Cocky's Store certainly started as a bakery. E.6 Butcher. William Baker operated a butchering business in Milparinka for several years. His advertisements first appear in 1893 (Sturt Recorder 2 June 1893: 1) while he was licensee of the Albert Hotel, and his business has already been mentioned in connection with that enterprise. However, upon selling the hotel in 1894 he continued as a butcher, in conjunction with the general store also already mentioned, and when a rush occurred to Little Bendigo in 1895 he extended his delivery cart circuit to incorporate the new locality (Sturt Recorder, 5 April 1895:2). He last advertised in the Sturt Recorder in February 1897, and when present at a public meeting in February 1899 he gave his occupation as storekeeper (Sturt Recorder, 4 February 1899:3). It is probable that his butchering business ceased during 1897 or 1898. E.7 Saddler and Harness-Maker. Also in 1893 a saddler & harness-maker, William Jordan operated from Milparinka (Sturt Recorder 2 June 1893). Four years later William Baker had opened a shop adjoining his store premises which specialised in this work (Sturt Recorder, 8 January 1897:3). It might be speculated that this represented the assumption of Jordan's business, but was more likely a diversification of Baker's butchery, already mentioned. The Jordan family continued to live in the township, and at one stage advertised 'Jordan's Superior Brew of Exmouth Hop Beer.. .' (Sturt Recorder,25 December 1897: 1) They may have continued as saddlers and harness-makers for some years, as William Jordan was still resident at Milparinka in 1907 (Aust Post 1). Adding to the likelihood that William Baker's saddlery represented a diversification of his butchering business is the presence of Robert Baker, tanner, at the meeting in February 1899 (Sturt Recorder, 4 February 1899:3).
E.8 Blacksmiths. John Stewart, General Blacksmith and Wheelwright advertised 'horses shod and all general work done on the shortest notice' when his advertisements first appeared in the Sturt Recorder (19 January 1894). Sturt appears to have been displaced by T.J.Burt when the latter advertised 'TJB begs to inform his numerous friends and the general public that he has taken the old shop, where all kinds of Smith's and Wheelwright's work will be executed upon the shortest notice, in best time and at the lowest charges. Horse-shoeing a specialty (Sturt Recorder, 24 August 1894: 1). "TJB's" advertisement again appeared in January 1895, but by 31 May the blacksmith advertising was 'T & J Godier, Blacksmiths and Wheelwrights, Milparinka and Tibooburra'(Sturt Recorder, 31 May 1895:3). In January 1897 the Sturt Recorder contained an advertisement "To Let The Old Blacksmith's Shop, Milparinka - Apply T.W.Chambers", and almost two years later John Thomas, Blacksmith and Wheelwright, late of Silverton Coach Factory begged to announce that he was about to open a shop at Milparinka (Sturt Recorder, 22 October 1898:3). On Friday 19 February 1897 the Sturt Recorder had advertised 'For Sale by Auction at an Early Date' goods which included a range of blacksmithing equipment, perhaps suggesting the demise of Burt's business. E.9 The New South Wales Post Office A postal route was established in April 1879 between Wilcannia and Mount Poole (then 'Sturts Depot Glen' holding), held by Duncan McBryde. This route was via Gnalta, Noontharungie, Wonominta, Morden, Cobham Lake, 'Coelly', and with the discovery of gold, Milparinka. On 16 July 1881, six months after the discovery of gold, the post office was transferred from Mount Poole to Milparinka, and on 27 May 1890 a telegraph line from Wanaaring to Milparinka was inaugurated. The route of this telegraph (liThe Cut Line") became a new postal route in 1895. For only a few years from 1890 the post office at Milparinka had an official postmaster. At the time it operated from premises owned by T.W.Chambers consisting of a two roomed corrugated iron cottage to which a verandah had been added on three sides. The cottage was described by as inspector in a report dated 21 June 1891 as 'the meanest, dirtiest and most uncomfortable place in town', and on 1st November 1891 the post office moved into a stone cottage owned by Cornelius Clune. This may have been a cottage officially sold to him in 1893 (see para 5.2.3), and was located three hundred yards from the former post office premises.
