== What was Bethanga like in the late 1870's ==

Bethanga was the largest run in in the Beechworth area in 1879 ([[The Argus at KellyGang 6/3/1879|Argus6/3/79]])

The Minister of Mines threatened some time before that if the mining leases were not worked according to law, they should be forfeited. Kitchingman’s Pyrites Works started again in a week or so.

The Land Commission went to Bethanga. ([[The Argus at KellyGang 20/3/1879|Argus20/3/79]])

The race club was active ([[Ovens &amp; Murray Advertiser (3)|OMA5/4/1879]])
