  • My Pen Shall Add a Testimony to Men Noble and Daring’; Poetry, Heroism and the Wreck of the SS Admella (1859) Nicole Anae
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Flinders Academic Commons ‘My pen shall add a testimony to men noble and daring’; Poetry, Heroism and the Wreck of the SS Admella (1859) Nicole Anae The South Australian Register first coined the term ‘Admella poetry’ in November 1859, almost two months after the wreck of the inter-colonial steamer the SS Admella off the South Australian coast on 6 August 1859.1 The vessel, a Clyde built screw-steamer of 478 tons and costing £15,000, broke into three parts and of the 113 passengers and crew, eighty-nine lost their lives, with the nineteen survivors huddling for eight days on the Admella’s storm ravaged and severely damaged after-deck.2 Survivor James Miller later wrote in a letter, an extract of which was published in the Nelson Examiner and New Zealand Chronicle on 24 September 1859, that ‘For eight days, I may say I was face to face with “the King of Terrors,” but am yet alive by the blessing of God’ (3). Miller’s letter was just one voice in the unparalleled surge of missives newspapers around the country received from local and international readers in response to the wreck. The outpouring of sympathy and support in the wake of the disaster was unprecedented. Never before had one single event mobilised colonial communities throughout Australia. ‘The calamity was one which afflicted all. Legislation was suspended, shops were empty, crowds stood in the street day and night for a week.’3 Parliamentary members were involved in relief efforts at a bureaucratic level, while communities local and interstate organised charity events, and popular visiting and local theatre stars of the period donated proceedings from performances to the cause.
