PEGASUS POST<br />

from the editor’s desk<br />

WE PAY tribute today to a New Brighton<br />

stalwart who has sadly passed away (see<br />

page 7).<br />

Margaret Kelso featured in last week’s<br />

<strong>Pegasus</strong> <strong>Post</strong> over her research for The New<br />

Brighton Boys project at the local museum.<br />

It’s a well documented history of those from the area who<br />

went to war – a number of whom never made it home.<br />

Margaret told us she was not well and couldn’t be photographed<br />

for our article. But as usual she was happy to talk in<br />

order to give the exhibition the promotion it deserved.<br />

Lifelong friend and New Brighton Museum secretary Peggy<br />

Butterfield sums it up: “If it was in New Brighton, she did it.”<br />

We also have more on one of those Brighton Boys (pages 4-5).<br />
