William Morris was born in Eltham in 1848 or 1849. He was married three times; his second wife had the same surname as his first so they may have been sisters. He was described as "jolly and hearty" and ran a publican's booth at the Eltham Races in 1903, reportedly doing a good trade. He was an Eltham Shire Councillor between 1897 and 1918 and was Shire President in 1911. The Evelyn Hotel was situated in Main Road Eltham, immediately opposite its competitor the Eltham Hotel. It had opened as the Fountain of Friendship Hotel by 1854, when it was described as having "twelve spacious apartments all canvassed and papered", but had changed its name by 1878. The proprietor from about 1889 until 1919 was William Morris; he was also the licensee for most of that time. (The William Morris who was a butcher at Eltham in the early 1900s was no relation.) It advertised that it had "good stables", located behind the hotel in Pitt Street, a necessity for hotels at the time. Mail coaches en route from Heidelberg to Queenstown (now St Andrews), Panton Hill and Kangaroo Ground changed horses there. It was de-licensed as a hotel in 1919 but continued to operate as a boarding house until it was destroyed by fire in 1931. William died in 1922 and is buried in Eltham Cemetery with several other family members.

Wingrove. Bell, John J.P. Kangaroo Ground, a Scotchman by birth, born in 1891, came out to Melbourne in 1839 in the ship David Clarke, and after remaining in Melbourne one year, and for a short time at Bulleen, went in 1841 to Kangaroo Ground, and purchased 160 acres of land where he now resides, having also 270 acres at Yarra Flats. At the time he settled on the Kangaroo Ground there were but three people in the district, of whom two were shepherds, and the entire country was bush.

A photo of the front exterior of the Rheumatism and Arthritis Association of Victoria Opportunity Shop, situated at 1428 High St, Malvern. There is an article on page 2 of the Vol 13, June 1979 edition of RAAV's News Review titled, "R.A.A.V. to open our own opportunity shop". Written by Vice President, Elva Renfrew, members and friends of RAAV are invited to donate goods and join a roster of volunteers who will staff the op shop once it opens. A second article appears on page 3 of the following issue of News Review, Vol 15, December 1979. Titled, "HERE'S OUR SHOP", it dates the opening of the Malvern Op Shop as being Monday, the 8th of October, 1979. A similar photo to this one accompanies that article, with a Christmas tree visible in the front display window of the shop. The article states that the opening of the shop was "launched by the Lady Mayor of Malvern, Counsellor [sic] Morrow, who presented us with a cheque." The newsagency on one side of the opportunity shop displays advertisements for 'The Sun' and 'The Age' newspapers. Two bill posters inside wire cages advertise the latest newspaper headlines. One contains the headline, "LIBS DEFY FRASER", referring to the Liberal Party and their leader, the Prime Minister at the time, Malcolm Fraser. The other headline is, "THE LIFE OF BILLY HUGHES". This headline most likely refers to the 2nd volume of a biography on the life of Australia's 7th Prime Minister, William Morris Hughes, by L. F. Fitzhardinge (1908-1993), which was published in 1979.COL photo of the exterior of a shop, with two other shops (partially obscured) evident on either side. On the outside of the veranda, the RAAV logo and "OPPORTUNITY SHOP" are painted in blue onto a white background. Above the shop's display window and double doors (beneath the veranda), the text "RHEUMATISM & ARTHRITIS ASSOCIATION OF VICTORIA" is painted in blue on a white background. On the window glass, the words "OPPORTUNITY SHOP" are painted in blue, in a tapered design. The double front doors are also painted in the same blue, and on one door, the text "RHEUMATISM AND ARTHRITIS ASSOCIATION OF VICTORIA", "ACTION HOUSE YARRA BOULEVARD KEW 3101 Phone 862 2555" are painted in white. Below this, the numbers "1428" (the street number of the building) is also painted in white. Behind the window, various items are on display. Inside the window, near the doors, a handwritten paper sign has been affixed which says, "OPENING MONDAY 10:30". To the left of the shop, there is a newsagency (partially obscured). Above the window, and beneath the verandah, there is the text (partially obscured), "...e Sun" with a picture of a rooster between the two words. At the top of the window, there is a sign containing the text, "THE AGE". Two bill posters inside wire cages are affixed to the wall. One says, "The AGE", "LIBS DEFY FRASER". The other says, "WEEKEND AUSTRALIAN", "THREE MILLION TO DIE", and "THE LIFE OF BILLY HUGHES".rheumatism and arthritis association of victoria, raav, opportunity shop, op shop, charity shop, thrift store, fundraising, newsagency, news headlines, biography, billy hughes, prime minister, laurie f fitzhardinge, malvern, news review, 1979
