Rare and detailed map showing the water catchment and supply for Perth in 1914.
The department was headed by Harry Frederick Johnston (1853-1915)
until June 1915 when Johnston was rushed to hospital after an accident

during the post-mortem. The coroner found that Johnston’s death had
occurred as a result of an accident during target practice.
