Amy Elizabeth Porritt was born on the 21st of March 1915 on Atkinson Road, Beechworth to Thomas Frederick Rodan and Maud Isabel Dowling. Her family had strong associations with Australia's oldest continuously operating newspaper, the Ovens and Murray. Both her grandfather and father worked on this newspaper and played a significant role in continuing its operation. Amy was well-known in the Beechworth community and is remembered fondly for her generosity and her love of cats ‘they are all I live for’ she would often say. She was an avid gardener and had a beautiful garden at 47 Finch Street. This oral history recording was part of a project conducted by Jennifer Williams in the year 2000 to capture the everyday life and struggles in Beechworth during the twentieth century. This project involved recording seventy oral histories on cassette tapes of local Beechworth residents which were then published in a book titled: Listen to what they say: voices of twentieth century Beechworth. These cassette tapes were digitised in July 2021 with funds made available by the Friends of the Burke. Miss Amy Elizabeth Porrit's account of her life in Beechworth and the local area during the 20th century is historically and socially significant to the cultural heritage of the region. She details important historical events and hardships in the region's history that had a lasting local, regional and national impact, including Australia during war time, economic struggles, and women's societal roles in a rural area. This oral history account is socially and historically significant as it is a part of a broader collection of interviews conducted by Jennifer Williams which were published in the book 'Listen to what they say: voices of twentieth-century Beechworth.' While the township of Beechworth is known for its history as a gold rush town, these accounts provide a unique insight into the day-to-day life of the town's residents during the 20th century, many of which will have now been lost if they had not been preserved.This is a digital copy of a recording that was originally captured on a cassette tape. The cassette tape is black with a horizontal white strip and is currently stored in a clear flat plastic rectangular container. It holds up 40 minutes of recordings on each side.Miss Amy Elizabeth Porrit / listen to what they say, beechworth, oral history, burke museum, porritt, amy elizabeth porritt, gardener, ovens and murray newspaper, o&m

Sister Elizabeth McGovern, Sister Mary Lacey, Sister Mary Griffiths, and Sister Gerardus Thistlewaite were all nuns of the Brigidine Order in Beechworth in the second half of the twentieth century. They had backgrounds in teaching and office work. As nuns, their contributions to the community included teaching, running camps, being there for community members wishing to talk to them or pray, and visiting prisons and hospitals. During their time in the order, the role of the nuns in Beechworth shifted due to the closing down of the Priory School, and changes in where housing for nuns was provided. The oral history also includes stories of boarding at the convent in the 1950s, and reflections on how the experience of being a nun has changed due to increasing immersion in the modern world, and the move from convent to house. This oral history recording was part of a project conducted by Jennifer Williams in the year 2000 to capture the everyday life and struggles in Beechworth during the twentieth century. This project involved recording seventy oral histories on cassette tapes of local Beechworth residents which were then published in a book titled: Listen to what they say: voices of twentieth century Beechworth. These cassette tapes were digitised in July 2021 with funds made available by the Friends of the Burke.Sister Elizabeth McGovern, Sister Mary Lacey, Sister Mary Griffiths, and Sister Gerardus Thistlewaite's interview with Jennifer Williams is revealing of the history of the Brigidine order in Beechworth, and the role religion and nuns played in the wellbeing, education, and life of the community in the latter half of the twentieth century. It is significant both for what it illustrates about the lives and motivation of the Sisters, and for what it tells us about how the role of religious education and figures shifted in Beecjhworth from 1950 onward. It is especially illuminating about the experience of women in education. This oral history account is socially and historically significant as it is a part of a broader collection of interviews conducted by Jennifer Williams which were published in the book 'Listen to what they say: voices of twentieth-century Beechworth.' While the township of Beechworth is known for its history as a gold rush town, these accounts provide a unique insight into the day-to-day life of the town's residents during the 20th century, many of which will have now been lost if they had not been preserved.This is a series of digital recordings that were originally recorded on multiple cassette tapes.

"Favour is deceitful and beauty is vain but the woman that feareth the Lord shall be praised"• Proverbs 31:30. "O all ye nations of the world praise ye the Lord...". Psalm 117:1 "...I say not land but learn makes man complet..." This is a popular historical rhyming maxim or moral verse often titled "Learning" or "On Learning." Due to the phonetic and varied spelling ("complet," "maks," "wirtv" for virtue), it strongly reflects the idiosyncratic, hand-stitched spelling typical of old samplers. • Meaning: The verse emphasizes that true human worth does not come from material or social status, but from inner wisdom and education. • Education over Property: Intellectual and moral growth ("learn") fulfills a person, not owning land. • Wisdom over Wealth: True greatness comes from inner knowledge, not financial riches. • Virtue over Nobility: A person's character and virtue define their standing, not the status of their birth. • Character over Titles: Personal fortune and happiness are built on wisdom, not societal honors or titles.Traditional early 18th century long sampler on ecru linen embroidered with faded blue, green, pink and cream silk threads.

This verse is a traditional poem or inscription historically dedicated to the art of needlework, embroidery, and samplers. In the 18th and 19th centuries, young girls frequently stitched verses like this onto their school room samplers to demonstrate both their needlework skills and their virtuous upbringing. The verse encourages young women to use their hands with unmatched skill to master the needle (embroidery) and honor the quill (writing or drawing designs). This text belongs to a genre of anonymous "sampler verses" widely used in the 1700s and 1800s. These verses were often distributed by schoolmistresses or printed in specialized instruction manuals to serve a dual purpose: moral instruction and literacy practice. The earliest recorded physical evidence of this exact verse appears on an English needlework sampler stitched by a girl named Ann Luty in 1788, at the age of 13. Traditional child's sampler on ecru linen embroidered in a variety of coloured silks and stitches. External border in a traditional strawberry design. Ornate dividing bands separate the alphabet, numerous floral and tree motifs. Large bottom panel depicts two men carrying a sedan chair or 'litter' with person inside. Identical motifs embroidered either side of trees, dogs, flowers and birds. Two small crowns either side of the cartouche with maker's name and date. "Young ladies for whom gentle minds incline To all that's curious innocent and fine With admiration in your works are read The various textures of the winding thread Then let your fingers with unrivalled skill Exalt the needle grace the noble quill" Elizabeth May Nov 13 1810 Aged 8 sampler, england, childs

The first text is the opening verse of a highly popular, traditional needlework sampler poem from the 18th and 19th centuries. The verse is most widely attributed to the Reverend John Newton (1725–1807), the famous English cleric, abolitionist, and author of the hymn "Amazing Grace". He is believed to have written this specific petition for his niece, Elizabeth Catlitt. It gained massive popularity after being published in The Evangelical Magazine in May 1798. Young girls throughout the UK and the United States frequently embroidered this prayer onto their marking samplers to demonstrate their growing skills in needlework, literacy, and piety. The second verse lines are from the Christmas hymn "What Words! What Voices Can We Bring?", written for Christmas Day with words of unknown origin and music composed by William Knapp (1698–1768). Traditional child's sampler on ecru linen embroidered in a variety of coloured silks and stitches. External border in a traditional carnation design. Ornate dividing bands separate the alphabet, verses, a house with numerous floral, bird and deer motifs. Large bottom panel depicts a windmill with identical motifs embroidered either side of flowers and birds."Jesus permit thy gracious name to stand To the first efforts of a youthful hand That while her fingers on the canvas move Engage her tender thoughts to seek thy love" "What words what voices can we bring. Which way our accents raise. To welcome the mysterious King. And sing a Saviour s praise. O tis too little all we can. For this unbounded love. All that was ever Wrote by man Or sung In hymns above".
