Adams (1935–2015) FRHSV, Councillor (1966– 2005), and to use his bequest of $10,000 to the RHSV in an appropriate manner, the RHSV has created a biennial prize. Since John Adams, a lecturer in Librarianship at RMIT for 27 years, was also the honorary indexer of the Victorian Historical Journal, indexing it for the years 1954–2013, the prize will be for the best article or historical note in the journal over a two-year period, commencing with Issues 287–290 (2017 and 2018). The following terms apply to the prize: • This biennial prize will be awarded for the best article or historical note on Victorian history in the four VHJ issues over two calendar years, beginning 2017–18. • The prize will be awarded for an article or historical note that illuminates a significant element of Victoria’s history, is clearly and succinctly written, and is researched from original material. • Members of the RHSV Publications Committee are ineligible for the award. • The prize offered from the Adams bequest is $300 and three years’ free membership of the RHSV, which includes hard copies of the VHJ. • A short list of five articles will be compiled by the VHJ editors active in the prize period. • Short-listing will occur at the end of each two-year period, beginning in December 2018. • Two judges will be chosen by the Publications Committee from academic and community historians and will report to the Committee by the following April. • The John Adams Prize will be presented biennially at the RHSV AGM following its judging and will be announced in the ensuing June issues of the VHJ and History News. Richard Broome, Chair, RHSV Publications Committee viii The John Adams Prize Victorian Historical Journal 2017–18 Shortlist in Alphabetical Order Compiled by VHJ editors Richard Broome and Judith Smart Nicola Cousen, ‘The Legend of Lalor’s Arm: Eureka Myths and Colonial Surgery’, VHJ, vol. 88, no. 2, November 2017, pp. 212–34 John Lack, ‘Turning the Screw: The 1916 Victorian Campaign for Conscription’, VHJ, vol. 89, no. 2, December 2018, pp. 253–82 Chris McConville, ‘The Political Economy of Victoria’s Brushtail Possums 1890–1975’, VHJ, vol. 88, no. 2, November 2017, pp. 235–55 John Waugh, ‘Capital Punishment in Colonial Victoria: The Role of the Executive Council’, VHJ, vol. 88 no. 2, November 2017, pp. 188–211 Ben Wilkie, ‘Rights, Reconciliation and the Restoration of Djabwurrung and Jardwadjarli Names to Grampians–Gariwerd’, VHJ, vol. 89, no. 1, June 2018, pp. 113–36 The John Adams Prize Judges’ Decision The judges appointed by the Publications Committee of the Royal Historical Society of Victoria recommend that the inaugural John Adams Prize should be awarded to Nicola Cousen for her article ‘The Legend of Lalor’s Arm: Eureka Myths and Colonial Surgery’, published in VHJ, vol. 88, no. 2, November 2017, pp. 212–34. The criteria for the prize stipulate that it should be awarded to an article or historical note that illuminates a significant element of Victoria’s history, is clearly and succinctly written, and is researched from original material. The judges found that all of the short-listed articles met these criteria; the quality displayed is testimony both to the excellence of the historical research presently carried on in Victoria and to the high standards of the VHJ editors. ix Ms Cousen’s article is lively and well written. It revisits a controversy with particular resonance for Victorian history: the competing stories around the amputation of the arm of Peter Lalor, the hero of Eureka. The Eureka Rebellion remains a contested

EXPEDITION FROM VAN DIEMEN'S LAND TO PORT PHILLIP, 1835 ■ Hobart Town, 25tl1 June, 1835. Srn, ' I HAVE the honor of reporting to Your Excellency, for the information of His Majesty's Government, the result of an Expedition undertaken by myself, at the expense and in conjunC'tion with several gentlemen, inhabitants of Van Diemen's Land, to Port Phillip, on the south-western point of New Holland, for the purpose of forming an extensive Pastoral Establishment, and combining therewith the civilization of the Native Tribes who are living in that part of the country. Before I enter into the details I deem it necessary to state, for the information of His Majesty's Government, that I am a native of New South Wales, and that for the last six years I have been most actively employed in endeavoring to civilize the Aboriginal Natives of Van Diemen's Land, and in order to enable the local Government of this Colony to carry that important object into full effect, I procured from New South Wales eleven aboriginal Natives of New Holland, who were, under my guidance, mainly instrumental in carrying into effect the humane objects of this Government · towards the Aborigines of this Island. I also deem it necessary to state that I have been for many years impressed with the opinion that a most advantag·eous Settlement might be formed at Western Port, or Port Phillip, and that, in 1827, Mr.

The School established a Recognition Committee following the Royal Commission’s public hearings, which met three times in 2016. The School implemented the major recommendation of the Recognition Committee by appointing a Survivor Liaison Coordinator, Renee Handsaker, to provide outreach and support to survivors of child sexual abuse at the School. Ms Handsaker has performed a vital role assisting survivors in a confidential and independent way. Her role is complimentary to, but separate of, the independent counsellor provided by the School to offer counselling and advice. The Royal Commission released its final report from the School’s case study in February 2017.

  • Reputations on the Line in Van Diemen's Land
    REPUTATIONS ON THE LINE IN VAN DIEMEN’S LAND: a dissertation on the general theme of the Rule of Law as it emerged in a young penal colony with particular emphasis on the law of defamation by ROSEMARY CONCHITA LUCADOU-WELLS LLB., (Queensland), B.Ed., (Tasmania), MA., (Murdoch), PhD., (Deakin) This thesis is presented for the degree of Master of Laws of Murdoch University, 2012. I declare that this thesis is my own account of my research and contains as its main content work which has not been submitted for a degree at any tertiary education institution. Rosemary Conchita Lucadou-Wells ABSTRACT This research focuses on the development of the jurisprudence of the infant colony of Van Diemen’s Land now known as Tasmania, with particular interest on the law of defamation. During the first thirty years of this British penal colony its population was subject to changes. There were the soldiery, who provided the basis of government headed by a Lieutenant Governor, the indigenous people, the convicts, and gradually an influx of settlers who came enthused by governmental promises of grants of land. In addition to these free settlers there were a selection of convicts who, under a process of something akin to manumission under Roman Law, became upon completion of their sentence, eligible for freedom and possibly a grant of land. There developed a spirit of competition amongst the settlers, each wanted to become more successful than the others. The favourite means of distinguishing oneself was the uttering or publication of damaging words against a person who was perceived to be a rival.

  • Aboriginal/ European Interactions and Frontier Violence on the Western
    the space of conflict: Aboriginal/ European interactions and frontier violence on the western Central murray, south Australia, 1830–41 Heather Burke, Amy Roberts, Mick Morrison, Vanessa Sullivan and the River Murray and Mallee Aboriginal Corporation (RMMAC) Colonialism was a violent endeavour. Bound up with the construction of a market-driven, capitalist system via the tendrils of Empire, it was intimately associated with the processes of colonisation and the experiences of exploiting the land, labour and resources of the New World.1 All too often this led to conflict, particularly between Indigenous and non-Indigenous peoples. Overt violence (the euphemistic ‘skirmishes’, ‘affrays’ and ‘collisions’ of the documentary record), clandestine violence (poisonings, forced removals, sexual exploitation and disease) and structural violence (the compartmentalisation of Aboriginal people through processes of race, governance and labour) became routinised aspects of colonialism, buttressed by structures of power, inequality, dispossession and racism. Conflict at the geographical margins of this system was made possible by the general anxieties of life at, or beyond, the boundaries of settlement, closely associated with the normalised violence attached to ideals of ‘manliness’ on the frontier.2 The ‘History Wars’ that ignited at the turn of the twenty-first century sparked an enormous volume of detailed research into the nature and scale of frontier violence across Australia. Individual studies have successfully canvassed the 1 Silliman 2005. 2
