  Inscription on back of photo reads: [sic] "To Mumsie, this is the way they land and embark passengers at the Jetty. The boat is moored by anchors about 10 or 12ft away from the jetty and rises and falls with the swell of the sea, sometimes rising 15ft or more so you see they cannot use a gangway. The crane you see can lift an 8 horse load of sawn hard wood, 50.5 doz men is no lift at all. H.B. Wood" - Coffs Harbour, NSW
