bilby commented on the word white stone
"The small cairn of white stones on the altar of Melbourne's St Paul's Cathedral just kept growing as the names were read yesterday afternoon. Twenty-three stones. King Lake ... Flowerdale ... Marysville ... Calignee ... Bendigo ... Yarra Glen. It was an awful roll call.
Each white stone symbolised a Victorian community both devastated by the Victoria fires and where lives have been lost. Then there was a 24th stone - representing 'those, as yet, un-named communities'. And the victims yet to be discovered."
