    The Trial and Execution of Elizabeth Woolcock in South Australia in 1873

    ‘INNOCENT VICTIM OF CIRCUMSTANCE’ OR ‘A VERY DEVIL INCARNATE’? THE TRIAL AND EXECUTION OF ELIZABETH WOOLCOCK IN SOUTH AUSTRALIA IN 1873 DAVID PLATER, JOANNA DUNCAN † AND SUE MILNE This article considers the trial and execution of Elizabeth Woolcock in 1873 for the alleged murder of her husband by poison. In examining the evidence adduced against her, notably the inconclusive scientific evidence, it is argued that Elizabeth was not the callous murderer presented by the prosecution but an ‘innocent victim of circumstance’ who was convicted and condemned to death, as much upon speculation and stereotype, as upon the tenuous strength of the prosecution case. Both Elizabeth’s trial and her eventual fate can be viewed in a wider context and illustrate the often polarised perception and treatment of female capital offenders during this period. Elizabeth’s already heinous crime in murdering her husband, further aggravated through her use of poison, and her purported liaison with another man, combined to brand her as ‘a devil incarnate’ and served to forfeit any claims to mercy on her behalf. Despite the real doubts as to her guilt and the strong mitigating factors that existed in her favour, Elizabeth Woolcock was destined to be the only woman in South Australia to ever suffer ‘the ultimate penalty of the law’. † David Plater BA/LLB, LLM, PhD, School of Law, University of South Australia; Honorary Research Fellow, University of Tasmania; Senior Legal Officer, State Attorney-General’s Department, Adelaide.

  • Place Names of South Australia: W

    Place Names of South Australia: W

    W Some of our names have apparently been given to the places by drunken bushmen andfrom our scrupulosity in interfering with the liberty of the subject, an inflection of no light character has to be borne by those who come after them. SheaoakLog ispassable... as it has an interesting historical association connectedwith it. But what shall we say for Skillogolee Creek? Are we ever to be reminded of thin gruel days at Dotheboy’s Hall or the parish poor house. (Register, 7 October 1861, page 3c) Wabricoola - A property North -East of Black Rock; see pastoral lease no. 1634. Waddikee - A town, 32 km South-West of Kimba, proclaimed on 14 July 1927, took its name from the adjacent well and rock called wadiki where J.C. Darke was killed by Aborigines on 24 October 1844. Waddikee School opened in 1942 and closed in 1945. Aboriginal for ‘wattle’. ( See Darke Peak, Pugatharri & Koongawa, Hundred of) Waddington Bluff - On section 98, Hundred of Waroonee, probably recalls James Waddington, described as an ‘overseer of Waukaringa’. Wadella - A school near Tumby Bay in the Hundred of Hutchison opened on 1 July 1914 by Jessie Ormiston; it closed in 1926. Wadjalawi - A tea tree swamp in the Hundred of Coonarie, west of Point Davenport; an Aboriginal word meaning ‘bull ant water’. Wadmore - G.W. Goyder named Wadmore Hill, near Lyndhurst, after George Wadmore, a survey employee who was born in Plymouth, England, arrived in the John Woodall in 1849 and died at Woodside on 7 August 1918. W.R. Wadmore, Mayor of Campbelltown, was honoured in 1972 when his name was given to Wadmore Park in Maryvale Road, Campbelltown.

    Chapter 3: Water and Biodiversity in South Australia

    3 Water and biodiversity in South Australia 3.1 As the driest state in the driest inhabited continent in the world,1 South Australia received considerable attention at the height of the drought experienced by southeastern Australia from 1997 to 2009, the worst drought in the 110-year instrumental record.2 The impact on the Coorong, Lower Lakes and Murray Mouth (CLLMM) region, in particular, was a major focal point. Located at the downstream end of the Murray–Darling River system, there was concern that the drought, combined with the over-allocation of water resources upstream, had severely compromised the region’s internationally significant biodiversity. 3.2 Some of the environmental impacts of the drought have abated since 2009. However, many of the challenges for the region remain, and these were part of the focus of the Committee’s site inspections in the CLLMM region on 16 May 2012. 3.3 Apart from this focus, the Committee was interested to see the development of innovative practices for the sustainable use of water resources and the protection of biodiversity assets. On 17 May 2012, the Committee inspected the constructed Greenfields Wetlands, which contribute to addressing concerns about the availability of water from the River Murray and the potential ecological impacts of stormwater run-off on marine ecosystems. 1 Government of South Australia, ‘Importance of water’, <http://www.sa.gov.au/subject/Water,+energy+and+environment/Water/Water+resources +in+SA/Importance+of+water> viewed 9 October 2012. 2 B Timbal, ‘The continuing decline in South-East Australian rainfall: update to May 2009’ in PA Sandery, T Leeuwenburg, G Wang and AJ Hollis (eds), CAWCR Research Letters, issue 2, July 2009, Centre for Australian Weather and Climate Research, Melbourne, 2009, pp.

  • South Australian Press Coverage of the Debate on the Climatic Influence of Forests: 1836-1956

    South Australian Press Coverage of the Debate on the Climatic Influence of Forests: 1836-1956

    13 South Australian press coverage of the debate on the climatic influence of forests: 1836-1956. Stephen Legg Introduction he origins of the notion that forests could attract rain date back to classical antiquity (Glacken T1967), but in the mid-Nineteenth century the idea became elevated almost to an article of faith among many European scientists in the fields of agriculture, botany and forestry. They were imbued with a new-found appreciation developed during the late-Eighteenth and early-Nineteenth centuries that the Earth was old yet dynamic and that environments, including climate, could change – both naturally and through human agency. The debate on the climatic influence of forests quickly spread to the New World, first in North America and later throughout Australasia particularly with the advance of the agricultural frontier and its attendant assault on the forests. Initially the focus was on the consequences of large-scale removal of trees in heavily-timbered arable lands. Later, attention turned to the possibilities of ‘climate making’ through afforestation both to redress deforestation and to extend the supposed climatic benefit of trees to grasslands. The latter seemed especially important in drought-prone Australia. More than just another scientific controversy or a commentary on contemporary environmental destruction, the notion that trees directly influenced climate also became a familiar historiographical trope in literature as diverse as history, geography and travel- writing to help explain the rise and fall of some civilizations in now arid lands in the Old World. The fledgling sciences of climatology, forestry, and ecology provided further legitimacy in the 1860s to what has been termed an ‘awakening to forest conservation’ through which the various values of forests were considerably prioritised in public policy agendas.

    WAB News 226 Aug 2018

    WAB NEWSLETTER edition number 226, AUGUST 2018 Hello Members of WAB, I spent 2 days at the Kapunda Farm Fair in April and 3 days at the Cleve Field Days recently, highlighting WAB in our regional communities. I was visited by quite a few past members who enjoyed seeing the photos of the rose launch and our Centenary Celebrations in Riverton last year. Thank you so much to the Padthaway branch and in particular, Beth Gale, for lending me the photo displays they organised for their regional conference this year. They are very attractive and have been a great asset to the WAB display. I also made several contacts of prospective new members and I am happy to say that at least one has joined the on-line branch as a result of meeting us at Cleve. I also want to thank Janet Hall and Roz Rowett who helped me at Kapunda and Di Hamlyn, Lyn Siviour, Sally Packer and Lee Russell who helped me at Cleve. My cousin, Michael Smart, also babysat the stall for 1 hour while I had lunch one day. I attended the Limestone Coast Conference on 5th April at Padthaway and the Mallee Conference on 23rd April at Karoonda and both were most enjoyable. I learnt a lot about Argentina and climbing mountains of numerous sorts. The theme was interwoven into the presentations of almost all of the speakers or performers which were fascinating. Thank you to Padthaway and Yurgo Branches for their great programs. The history display of WAB at NCWSA House in Adelaide was much enjoyed by those attending and Thelma Newman and I loved talking about WAB for the 2 day event.
