Notes This leather pony was used on the mixed home farm of WFM Cummins and Maria Cummins just south west of Strathclair. It would have been used by any of the brothers to make or repair harness for the horses used for farming and transportation from the early 1900's through to the mid 1950's. Elwin, Graydon, Raymond, Milne and Leslie all spent many long days working the farm.
