131661Very Good. A single leaf octavo printed recto only slightly marked with a marginal crease to a top corner; two light horizontal creases where folded for posting; in very good condition. The invitation headed '9th L.H.O.C.A.' 9th Light Horse Old Comrades Association invites members to give a hearty welcome to the old commanding officer Colonel William Henry Scott 1881-1960 who 'will be in Adelaide for a few days this month on a visit to his son'. The date for the event is not given but we suggest some time in the 1920s as Scott 'rose to brigadier in 1929' 'Australian Dictionary of Biography'. Darley writes presumably as president of the association that 'it will be quite informal come along in your working clothes or anyhow you like and you need not get your hair cut for the occasion. If you clean your boots be sure to use NUGGET. Refreshments liquid only will be provided'. The ADB provides the answer to the unasked question: 'Scott contributed items to the "Bulletin" under the pseudonym of "Nugget" an ironic nickname considering his great height'. <p>Dornbusch 384; Fielding and O'Neill page 233; Trigellis-Smith 279. unknown
