A Chinese funeral in Cooktown, Queensland in the 1890s. The port of Cooktown served the nearby goldfields and, during the goldrush of the 1870s, a Chinese community many thousands strong grew up in both the fields and in the town itself. By the time this picture was taken, output had declined and many diggers had left.
