Brief Description
The Ormondville Times was a newspaper handwritten by members of the Webb family.
This second number is dated 29 Tuesday May, however no year has been recorded.
The first article is on the subject of Norsewood. It reads: Just now this township presents quite an animated appearance. Buildings are going up in all directions. Mr Small's Hall is rapidly approaching completion, and Mr Mridski has also begun building a hall. Though we have experienced very inclement weather the last few days Mr Maynard, with the valuable assistance and direction of Mr Webb is making great progress with the school building, as is also Messrs Coles with the teachers residence. Though the children and teachers find the Hotel inconvenient for carrying on the school yet we may hope that it will not be for long.
Other articles include:
Adventures in South Africa by Anthony James Webb
Reproductions of Pluto Land by Alice F Webb
There are also letters to the Editor.
