Description : |
Portrait of 'Billie Little' [William Hurtle Liddle], of Angas Downs Station, Northern Territory In order to travel to Uluru to collect further evidence, the Board of Enquiry travelled from Middleton ponds by truck, to Angas Downs, a cattle station owned by Bill Liddle, where a camel string had been arranged to transport them to Uluru. This location is referred to as 'Liddle's Place' in the Enquiry's evidence, and 'Little's place' in Mountford's diary (PRG 1218/5/3, page 253). Mountford also referred to him as Billie Little in this portrait he took during their stay. |
