In the beginnings of Australian poetry the names of two other men stand with his — Adam Lindsay Gordon, of English parentage and education, and Charles Harpur, born in Australia a generation earlier than Kendall. Harpur's work, though lacking vitality, shows fitful gleams of poetic fire suggestive of greater achievement had the circumstances of his life been more favourable. Kendall, whose lot was scarcely more fortunate, is a true singer; his songs remain, and are likely long to remain, attractive to poetry lovers. The poet's grandfather, Thomas Kendall, a Lincolnshire schoolmaster, met the Revd. Samuel Marsden when the latter was in England seeking assistants for his projected missionary work in New Zealand. Kendall offered his services to the Church Missionary Society of London and came out to Sydney in 1809. Five years later he was sent to the Bay of Islands as a lay missionary, holding also the first magistrate's commission issued for New Zealand. He soon made friends with the Maoris and learnt their language well enough to compile a primer in pidgin-Maori, A KORAO NO NEW ZEALAND; OR, THE NEW ZEALANDER'S FIRST BOOK, which George Howe printed for Marsden at Sydney in 1815. In 1820 Thomas Kendall went to England with some Maori chiefs, and while there helped Professor Lee, of Cambridge, to “fix” the Maori language — the outcome of their work being Lee and Kendall's GRAMMAR AND VOCABULARY OF THE LANGUAGE OF NEW ZEALAND, published in the same year. Returning to New Zealand, Kendall, in 1823, left the Missionary Society and went with his son Basil to Chile. In 1826 he came back to Australia, and for his good work as a missionary received from the New South Wales Government a grant of 1280 acres at Ulladulla, on the South Coast. There he entered the timber trade and became owner and master of a small vessel used in the business. About 1832 this vessel was wrecked near Sydney, and all on board, including the owner, were drowned. Of Basil Kendall's early career little is known. While in South America he saw service under Lord Cochrane, the famous tenth Earl of Dundonald, who, after five brilliant years in the Chilean service, was, between 1823 and 1825, fighting on behalf of Brazil. Basil returned to Australia, but disappears from view until 1840. One day in that year he met a Miss Melinda McNally, and next day they were married. Soon afterwards they settled on the Ulladulla grant, farming land at Kirmington, two miles from the little town of Milton. There, in a primitive cottage Basil had built, twin sons — Basil Edward and Henry — were born on the 18th April, 1841. Five years later the family moved to the Clarence River district and settled near the Orara. Basil Kendall had practically lost one lung before his marriage, and failing health made it exceedingly difficult for him to support his family, to which by this time three daughters had been added. On the Orara he grew steadily weaker, and died somewhere about 1851. Basil Kendall was well educated, and had done what he could to educate his children. After his death the family was scattered, and the two boys were sent to a relative on the South Coast. The scenery of this district made a profound impression upon Henry, and is often referred to in his early poems. In 1855 his uncle Joseph took him as cabin boy in his brig, the `Plumstead', for a two years' cruise in the Pacific, during which they touched at many of the Islands and voyaged as far north as Yokohama. The beauty of the scenes he visited lived in the boy's memory, but the rigours of ship life were so severe that in after years he looked back on the voyage with horror. Henry Kendall returned to Sydney in March, 1857, and at once obtained employment in the city and set about making a home for his mother and sisters. Mrs. Kendall, granddaughter of Leonard McNally, a Dublin notable of his day, was a clever, handsome woman with a strong constitution and a volatile temperament. Henry was always devoted to her, and considered that from her he inherited whatever talent he possessed. She helped in his education, and encouraged him to write verse.

For further information contact the UOW Library: [email protected] War and Colonial Identity: The Poetic Response Abstract For a country spared the ravages of major wars, at least until the twentieth century, Australian creative works preceding federation exhibit a striking concern with martial prowess and the reality or possibility of physical conflict. 131oody encounters with blacks, convicts and bush-rangers frequently provide novelists with dramatic climaxes. Images of the settler literally battling natural d1sasters such as floods and fires. or of the man on horseback performing heroic deeds are iterated in the verse, while such scenes dominate the sprawling historical canvases of the period. Moreover, the spectre of armed struggle appears repeatedly in the political literature of the colonies, either as an Old World horror to be avoided or as a sacrifice willingly accepted for a free and democratic society. Henry Lawson for instance, at the turn of the century, evoked the famous patriot-image of blood staining the wattle, much as forty years before similar concepts

The messages of the gods to each other travel not by pen and ink and indeed your bodily presence here would not make you more real: for I feel your fingers in my hair, and your cheek brushing mine. The air is full of the music of your voice, my soul and body seem no longer mine, but mingled in some exquisite ecstasy with yours. (Oscar Wilde, letter to Constance Wilde from Edinburgh, 16 December 1884.) A decade ago, in his chapter for The Cambridge History of Australian Literature, Ken Stewart voiced what has long been the conventional understanding of Wilde and his relationship with Britain’s Australian colonies. ‘The image of aristocratic dandyism [Wilde] affected’, Stewart asserted, was the reverse of typically Australian.

  • HENRY KENDALL in ILLAWARRA Thomas Henry Kendall
    lllawarra Historical Society Bulletin 1 April. 1984 15 HENRY KENDALL IN ILLAWARRA Thomas Henry Kendall. "Native Australian Poet," was born on 18 April, 1839, in Ulladulla, on the South Coast of New South Wales, the twin son of Basil Kendall and his wife Melinda, nee McNally. Basil was the son of Thomas Kendall, who came to Sydney in 1809 and five years later went as a missionary to New Zealand. In 1826 Thomas returned to Australia and obtained a grant of land at Ulla­ dulla where he entered the timber trade1• In 1832 a survey party, including Thomas Kendall and his son-in-law, Mr. Florence, left Ulladulla in the "Brisbane" for Sydney. The cutter foundered off Jervis Bay and all hands were lost.2 Basil Kendall, Henry's father, was spoken of as being bright and amiable, but unstable. Alexander Sutherland3 describes him as a mild gentlemanly man of evident education and refinement but thin and delicate, one lung almost gone through the ravages of consump­ tion. It was said that one evening at a dance in Sussex Street, Basil met the bright and pretty Melinda Anne McNally. Overcome, he proposed to her on the spot and they were married the next morning 4 As both were rumoured to be of intemperate habits this m3} well have been so! Melinda McNally was the granrl-daughter of Leonard Mci\Jolly, a leading Irish wit and barrister who Lurned informer on his fellow United Irishmen and for his pains was disgraced and made almost penniless by an ungrateful British Government. One of his sons, Patrick, came to Australia and it was his daughter whom Basil Kendall so precipitately married.
