Posed photograph of George Pantonie sitting on a chair outside, garden beds and a tree are visible in the background.

'This was George Pantonie, of Finnies. He was about 80 years of age. Pantonie was a member of the Salvation Army, and some years ago went to England with officers of that body, visiting Buckingham Palace, and singing before Queen Victoria. Subsequently he visited other parts of Europe. He was one of the products of the Point McLeay Mission Station, and wrote the illuminated address which was presented to the Duke of Edinburgh on behalf of the natives at the station 60 years ago. On the occasion of the Royal visit,
Pantonie accompanied the Duke on a shooting expedition.' The Adelaide Chronicle, January 19, 1918. https://trove.nla.gov.au/newspaper/article/87540909
