"Glen Clifford knows every nook and cranny of Yallum Park and so he should, he was
born here in 1917 and has lived here ever since. For him, every room has a story
like the day Princes Albert and George came to visit back in 1881." "Albert and
George played on this table. Albert was heir to the throne and he died early and
George became George the Fifth".
Glen's New Hebrides collection was sold at the beginning of the 90's. (see also 24 January 1967 and 18 December 1967 in "1963-65 Defs PH")
