(Bronwen Hickman) Abstract If a nation's story is told by the weaving together of the strands of individual lives, the biographies of its achievers, then the story of Mary Gaunt adds an important thread of colour and interest to the tapestry of Australia's identity. Born on the Victorian goldfields in 1861, she grew up in Colonial Victoria. She was the first woman to study at Melbourne University. She travelled in the forests of West Africa and across China and wrote books and gave lectures on her travels. She was a successful novelist; she pushed against the limitations of women's lives in her own life and in her fiction, and one of her books was banned in England as a result. She lived in Europe for the second half of her life, but remained proudly Australian; many of her books were set in Australia. Her depiction of life on the goldfields, in the bush, in shanty towns in the Colonies, and in particular her depiction of life for women, is a valuable record of a world long gone.

Acknowledgements I acknowledge with thanks the award of a postgraduate travelling scholarship by Victoria University which assisted me to travel to Italy, France and England in 1996 to do research for this book. I was in England for six weeks of research in November-December 1996. I was grateful for the help of staff members in the British Library Manuscripts Section, the Guildhall Library and India Office Library, London, and the William Salt Library in Stafford and the Local History Library in Liverpool. I award gold stars to Jill Crowther, of the Hull Central Library, for getting the Winifred Holtby letters to me just in time before I left England; and to Michael Bott, who found me useful papers in the Methuen and Macmillan archives and saved me a trip to Reading. I record my thanks to Paul Berry, for his permission to get access to the Winifred Holtby letters; to Miss Elsie Gladman, who nursed Mary Gaunt in her last years; to Margaret Ludlow, who I met in the Canterbury Records Office, and to Mr. Howard Rigney, who disregarded the pouring rain to help me find the last resting place of Elsie Lang and her family at Sittingbourne in Kent. In France I received kindness and help from Pamela and Neville Flower, who took me to the English Hospital and English Cemetery in Cannes; in Bordighera, Italy, I found many kind and courteous people: the staff at the Biblioteca Civica Internazionale (International Library) and the Istituto Internazionale di Studi Liguri (the Bicknell Institute); Signora Igina Bini at the Hotel Windsor Tennis; Awocato Moreno, who recalled the days of the English in Bordighera; and Sergio Biancheri, who found ways to open many doors, and whose introduction of me as 'our guest' I treasure. My thanks to the New York Public Library for copies of Mary Gaunt letters in the Century Collection; to the Wilson Library at the University of North Carolina for copies of Gaunt correspondence in the A.P.Watt archive; and to the Lockwood Library, State University of New York, Buffalo, for a Mary Gaunt letter. In Australia, I have spent many hours in the Public Record Office in Laverton, the Baillieu Library at Melbourne University, and the State Library of Victoria. I am indebted to their staffs for their patience and help. I have also been glad to gain access to Melbourne University Archives, the Burke Museum at Beechworth, the Wyndham City Library, the Mitchell i Library in Sydney, the National Library and the Australian Archives, Canberra. I thank the staff at Deakin University, Warrnambool - Jan Critchett, Jeanette Rhedding-Jones and Jennifer Bantow - for their welcome and their help. People and organisations have made their records available to me: Brian Woodyatt of the Ballarat Club; the Warrnambool Hospital; the Flagstaff Museum Warrnambool; Craig's Hotel, Ballarat, Mary Lugton, of the Baillieu Library, who must have been the first to gather together information about Mary Gaunt. Rex Fuge helped me with Chiltern records; David Perrin knew about Ballarat and the Gaunts; Helen Harris found me a William Gaunt letter, and Dudley Sheppard lent me his goldfields map. I am grateful to Ian McLaren, whose trail-blazing bibliography of Mary Gaunt has been of inestimable help to me, and who allowed me access to his working papers, which provided many promising leads. I have been grateful for expert medical advice from Professor Harold Attwood, Dr. Chris Buckley and Dr. Robert Hare, and to Harold Love for the tip-off that led me to the records of Lindsay Miller's death. I owe a great debt to members of the Gaunt, Palmer and Morrison families, who have been courteous, helpful and hospitable during my long quest. I remember with pleasure my meetings with Yvonne and Dick Fox, Michael Hemery, Jean Bowyer and her daughter Carol, Desmond and Kay Gaunt and Jill Marshall; I am also grateful to Libby Thomson and Geoff Palmer, whom I hope to meet one day, and to Don Webb, Janice Hilton and Alastair Morrison. My thanks also to Wilma Davies and Helen McCallum, who, although not members of these families, have been helpful sources of information on them. Some people are generous with help in wider spheres, and I remember with gratitude Paddy Morgan's advice and guidance which gave me several fruitful research paths to follow; and Rosaleen Love, whose patience and enthusiasm and interest and expertise have been a great help to me. It is no small thing to look back over three years of intensive work - over thirty years of interest and compiling - and remember so many kindnesses, so many wonderful people and experiences that I have known in the writing of this thesis. ii The only known picture of Elizabeth Gaunt William Henry Gaunt in the (nee Palmer), taken before her marriage to 1860s.

  • 28 Affiliated Colleges - Trinity College
    AFFILIATED COLLEGES. The establishment of Affiliated Colleges is specially pro­ vided for in the Act of Incorporation, as will be perceived by a reference to the 8th clause of that measure. The Church of Kngland is the only denomination that has yet availed itself of the right thus accorded. Their founda­ tion, which bears the name of Trinity College, was affiliated in February Term, 1876. A short account of this College is here appended:— TRINITY COLLEGE. Trinity College stands in a section of the University Re­ serve, facing the Sydney road. It was built by means of the voluntary contributions of members of the Church of England, supplemented by a loan from Bishop Perry. The first stone was laid on February 10, 1870, and the College was opened for the reception of Students in JulyTerm, 1872, TheBev. G.W. Torrance, M.A., had been appointed Acting Head of the College in February Term, 1872, and held office till the commencement of February Term, 1876. At this time it was determined to establish the College on a more settled basis. Mr. Torrance resigned, and the present Principal was appointed. Until then the College had been little else than a boarding-house, as there was no provision made for the instruction of .Students. Since that time, in addition to the enforcement of discipline and moral and religious supervision, the Students have been able to enjoy the advantage of regular tuition in preparation for the lectures and examinations of the University. The buildings, when completed, will consist of a Chapel, Dining Hall, Library, Provost's Irodge, Lecture Rooms, and sets of Chambers for Students.

  • “A Veritable Augustus”: the Life of John Winthrop Hackett, Newspaper
    “A Veritable Augustus”: The Life of John Winthrop Hackett, Newspaper Proprietor, Politician and Philanthropist (1848-1916) by Alexander Collins B.A., Grad.Dip.Loc.Hist., MSc. Presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of Murdoch University March 2007 I declare that this thesis is my own account of my research and contains as its main content work which has not been previously submitted for a degree at any tertiary education institution. ……………………….. Alexander Collins ABSTRACT Irish-born Sir John Winthrop Hackett was a man of restless energy who achieved substantial political authority and social standing by means of the power gained through his editorship and part-ownership of the West Australian newspaper and his position in parliament. He was a man with a mission who intended to be a successful businessman, sought to provide a range of cultural facilities and, finally, was the moving force in establishing a tertiary educational institution for the people of Western Australia. This thesis will argue that whatever Hackett attempted to achieve in Western Australia, his philosophy can be attributed to his Irish Protestant background including his student days at Trinity College Dublin. After arriving in Australia in 1875 and teaching at Trinity College Melbourne until 1882, his ambitions took him to Western Australia where he aspired to be accepted and recognised by the local establishment. He was determined that his achievements would not only be acknowledged by his contemporaries, but also just as importantly be remembered in posterity. After a failed attempt to run a sheep station, he found success as part-owner and editor of the West Australian newspaper.
