Please see a Guide if you would like a copy. ©Saint Andrew’s Uniting Church Corner Ann and Creek Streets Brisbane QLD 4000 2015 2 Trooper Campbell Cowley (1881-1919) Gunner William Roy Cowley (1889-1942) Campbell and William Roy (‘Roy’) Cowley were the eldest and the youngest sons respectively of a prominent Queensland family, but they had quite different experiences when serving in the First World War, and lived different lives. Campbell was a Kiplingesque figure who was a Lieutenant in the Boer War, did intelligence work and hunted elephants in Africa, had a coconut plantation in Papua, and fought in the 11th Light Horse Regiment in Palestine. In that arid country the terrain and lack of water were a great strain on the troops, and conditions were often primitive with medical evacuation difficult. Campbell died in an apparent suicide in a remote part of Papua in 1919. Roy served as a gunner in the 7th Field Artillery Brigade. In France and Belgium he faced dangers such as quagmires of mud, gas attacks, and thunderous barrages from massed artillery firing huge numbers of shells (with opposition artillery a desirable target). He was wounded twice. Roy made a successful return to civilian life, but without any apparent warning or reason, he committed suicide in 1942 when aged 53. Family background Their parents – Sir Alfred Sandlings Cowley and Lady Maria (‘Marie’) nee Campbell - were prominent in Queensland public affairs.

J. Brown PhD Thesis Key Centre for Ethics Law Justice & Governance Griffith University, June 2003 Through the late 20th century, global society experienced waves of unprecedented political and institutional change, but Australia came to be identified as "constitutionally speaking… the frozen continent", unable or unprepared to comprehensively modernise its own fundamental laws (Sawer 1967). This thesis opens up a subject basic to, but largely unexplored in debate about constitutional change: the territorial foundations of Australian constitutional thought. Our conventional conclusions about territory are first, that Australia's federal system has settled around a 'natural' and presumably final territorial structure; and second, that this is because any federal system such as possessed by Australia since 1901 is more decentralised and therefore more suitable than any 'unitary' one.

  • Notes on the Political History Of^^^ Queensland—1859-1917. CHARLES A, BERNAYS, Clerk-Assistant and Scrgeant-At-Arms, Legislative Assembly
    18o /,' :• { ^ V. LIBRARY Notes on the Political History of^^^ Queensland—1859-1917. CHARLES A, BERNAYS, Clerk-Assistant and Scrgeant-at-Arms, Legislative Assembly. WHEN asked by the Historical Society to contribute a paper on the Political History of Queensland I already had in view the amplification of an article written by me in August, 1909, for the Jubilee number of the "Queenslander," Owing to the necessity for economising space, there was not much opportunity then of doing justice to a subject which is of interest to a considerable section of the community. It is hoped that this paper may serve the dual purpose of interesting honourable members of the Legislature and forming an historical basis upon which others can build at a later date. The work has been much more laborious and has involved more research than would appear at first sight, and on that account, and because it was undertaken during the Parliamentary session, I feel justified in asking for tolerant criticism. This paper is intended to be, and I hope will be, a dispassionate review of Queensland's chief political events, and of the principal men who have devoted their energies to the government of this part of Australia. I have been too long a servant of Parliament not to recognise the importance of the strictest impartiality. The whole of that vast territory north of Point Danger and formerly attached to New South "Wales, representing an area of 668,497 square miles, or ten times that of England and Wales, was erected into a separate colony under the designation of "Queen.sland" on the 10th December, 1859, and many of you will know that prior to Federation the anniversary of separation was probably our chief public holiday.
