O. Healy, then a member of the HO'Spital Committee and now of HiIldale, is due the credit of taking the initial practical step towards the installation of a Motor TI'ansport Service for the whole of the district. It is now a matter of history how, after several unsuccessful attempts,and in the face of apathy, if not open OPPOSition, and no little amount of sceptical criticism, he was finally successful in se­ curing the appointment of a small provisional committee, ,having as its object the accomplishment or his proposal to l:lupersede the then existing Ambulance by the establishment of a branch of the N.S.W. Ambulance Transport Service Board. Soon this committee was grapplillg with the apparently insoluble problem. No sooner was one obstacle ~urmounted than a more formidable one presented itself. No magic wand appeared to waive aside diificulties, but so confident was your committee of eventually winning public support when the value of the service was recognised that with an undaunted determination ana unbounded confidence regarded by many as foolhardines:; it arrived at a momentuous decision on the evening of 3rd December, 1923, when a sum of but £ 4/14/6 was in hand, Two Buick Six cars were ordered, and a Superintendent engaged-in short, the Brigade was launched!

    Women in Colonial Commerce 1817-1820: the Window of Understanding Provided by the Bank of New South Wales Ledger and Minute Books

    WOMEN IN COLONIAL COMMERCE 1817-1820: THE WINDOW OF UNDERSTANDING PROVIDED BY THE BANK OF NEW SOUTH WALES LEDGER AND MINUTE BOOKS Leanne Johns A thesis presented for the degree of Master of Philosophy at the Australian National University, Canberra August 2001 DECLARATION I certify that this thesis is my own work. To the best of my knowledge and belief it does not contain any material previously published or written by another person where due reference is not made in the text. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I acknowledge a huge debt of gratitude to my principal supervisor, Professor Russell Craig, for his inspiration and encouragement throughout the writing of this thesis. He gave insightful and expert advice, reassurance when I needed it most, and above all, never lost faith in me. Few supervisors can have been so generous with their time and so unfailing in their support. I also thank sincerely Professor Simon Ville and Dr. Sarah Jenkins for their measured and sage advice. It always came at the right point in the thesis and often helped me through a difficult patch. Westpac Historical Services archivists were extremely positive and supportive of my task. I am grateful to them for the assistance they so generously gave and for allowing me to peruse and handle their priceless treasures. This thesis would not have been possible without their cooperation. To my family, who were ever enthusiastic about my project and who always encouraged and championed me, I offer my thanks and my love. Finally, this thesis is dedicated to the thousands of colonial women who endured privations, sufferings and loneliness with indomitable courage.

It does not attempt to document the construction of every significant building, the acquisition of every I land grant, the commencement of every major industrial enterprise or identify every settler prominent in the I history of the study area. The primary purpose of the work is to define, as concisely as possible, the principal events or catalysts that were I influential in the unique development of a particular area. It is not so much a "what" history as a "how" or "why" history although, in its explication, it does provide a considerable wealth of detail with respect to I the "whats" of history. With respect to the latter, detailed analysis and I discussion of sites, events and personalities of the Maitland district have been included in several local histories and secondary studies. These works have examined a wealth of primary material as well as contributing I considerable local understanding and observations that have been invaluable in the formation of this thematic overview.
