I I I i I ( 1585-1645) i i i i i i I I i i I i i I I I Editorial ... i I i I The Loreto Federation of Australia is to hold its second i i i annual conference in Adelaide in November. Reference to its i I programme is made on another page of this magazine, which 'i i I I goes to our readers under the patronage of Our Lady and of the i Venerable Mother Mary Ward. i I i I The theme of the conference is THE LORETO GIRL IN THE i I WORLD TO-DAY-a theme that should appeal not only to Loreto I I Old, and present, Girls, but also to the parents of all our pupils. I In its wider implication the theme means, of course, THE I Ii I CATHOLIC WOMAN IN THE WORLD TO-DAY. i I I i W e shall be pardoned if we1give our attention to cultivating, I i with care, our own plot so that we may contribute a valuable I I I I crop to the general harvest of good works in Australia. We i should often bring back our minds to the fundamental truth, i I that we DO good by BEING good. At least .we shall make a cell I I I of good living in a materialistic world. i I i I In every State in Australia Loreto Old Girls are an encour­ i I aging influence in civic life. That is one of the reasons why I I I the Loreto Federation should be a rallying point for all our past i I pupils. The forthcoming conference in Adelaide, with its i promise of a thoughtful interchange of ideas, will touch not only i I women educated at Loreto, but the whole community of Catholic I women in Australia.

SEVENTY-ONE NOT OUT THE REMINISCENCES OF WILLIAM CAFFYN MEMBER OP THE ALL ENGLAND AND UNITED ELEVENS, OF THE SURREY COUNTY ELEVEN, OF THE ANGLO-AMERICAN TEAM OF 1859, AND OF THE ANGLO-AUSTRALIAN TEAMS OF l86l AND 1863 EDITED BY “MID-ON” WILLIAM BLACKWOOD AND SONS EDINBURGH AND LONDON MDCCCXCIX All Rights reserved TO GENERAL SIR FREDERICK MARSHALL, K.C.M.G., AN ARDENT AND GENEROUS SUPPORTER OF THE NOBLE GAME OF CRICKET. — PREFACE. I have lived to the age of seventy-one (hence the title of this work), and until some six months ago the writing of my reminiscences never occurred to me. Indeed had it not been for the fact of my meeting with an old friend—almost accidentally the ensuing pages would never have been written. Like most cricketers, I have unfortunately kept comparatively few records of my long career. Luckily I am possessed of an excellent memory, and with this and the aid of many an old volume kindly lent to me by various gentlemen I have been able to complete my somewhat difficult task. I have given a short sketch of the state of the national game at the time of my birth; how I learnt both batting and bowling when a boy ; have described my connection with Clarke’s old All England Eleven, and afterwards with the United; Vlii PREFACE. my visit with the first team to America in 1859; with Stephenson’s team to Australia in 1861, and with Parr’s more famous one in 1863; have given an account of my seven years’ residence in the Antipodes, and the close of my career after my return to England in 1871.

ISBN: 186477021X. 32 pages b/w photos - isbn in book is 18647721X - The Victorian Railways T class are a class of diesel locomotives built by Clyde Engineering, Granville for the Victorian Railways between August 1955 and November 1968.They were the most ubiquitous class of diesel locomotives in the state. In July 1954 the Victorian Railways placed an order with Clyde Engineering for 25 (later extended to 27) diesel electric locomotives of their G8 type (based on the EMD GP-7/GP-9 general-purpose locomotive that was a massive sales success in the USA at the time) to partially dieselise country branch lines.In June 1959 the first of an additional ten entered service. Although mechanically similar to the first batch they differed by having a cab raised above the hood line.[5] A further ten entered service from December 1961. In September 1965 the first of an order for 32 was delivered. These differed by having a lower nose. A final order for 19 was delivered from April 1967. The last five were built with an extra 10 tonnes of ballast weight for improved adhesion and low speed controls for use as shunting locomotives in Melbourne. These were reclassified as the H class shortly after being delivered.In July 1969 an additional flat top unit was purchased second hand from Australian Portland Cement who had ordered it for use at its narrow gauge Fyansford Cement Works Railway, Geelong in 1956.

Michael McFadyen A Short History of the SS President Coolidge Page i Foreword For more than 15 years I have dived a considerable number of the shipwrecks of the Pacific Ocean. Apart from the shipwrecks in my home State of New South Wales, the first wreck that I dived in the Pacific was the SS President Coolidge. My interest in this ship led me to find out more about its history and how it came to be sunk. A lot of the information that was available in dive publications and on film was, I soon discovered, incorrect. After amassing a great deal of information, I decided to share my knowledge, so I wrote articles for DIVE Log Australasia about the ship. In the mid-1990s, with the expansion of the use of the World Wide Web, I set up my own Web Site (Michael McFadyen’s Scuba Diving – members.ozemail.com.au/~diving) and published the articles there. Since my first visit to dive the Coolidge in 1991, I have returned to Espiritu Santo in 1995, 1999, 2000, and 2002 and have done in excess of 60 dives there.

Yet this vale in its short compass shows the varied elements of grandeur and beauty in a very rare degree. It impresses and subdues by mountain and crag; it touches eye and heart with a symmetry of opposing yet alternating and harmonious lines of hills, and a winsome grace peculiarly its own.

  • Finnegans Wake Notebook VI.B.2 Nativities, August-September 1923
    GENETIC JOYCE STUDIES – Issue 19 (Spring 2019) Finnegans Wake Notebook VI.B.2 Nativities, August-September 1923 Viviana-Mirela Braslasu and Robbert-Jan Henkes For a general introduction to this early notebook for Finnegans Wake, compiled from late August to late September 1923, its use in the drafts as well as to the identified sources, see two articles in Genetic Joyce Studies 14 (Spring 2014): • Robbert-Jan Henkes, “2 weeks in the life of James Joyce: as gleaned from his 1923 Notebook VI.B.2 Nativities (revised edition)” www.geneticjoycestudies.org/articles/GJS14/GJS14_Henkes_2weeks; • Robbert-Jan Henkes, “2 more weeks in the life of James Joyce: as gleaned from his 1923 Notebook VI.B.2 Nativities” www.geneticjoycestudies.org/articles/GJS14/GJS14_Henkes_2moreweeks. In the 24 indexes below there is one recently discovered source. Apparently Joyce was supplied not only with the 1911 article of Adrien Pic about old age and its concomitant phenomena (Vieillesse et Senilité, source no. 17), but also with Pic’s subsequent magnum opus of 890 pages, the 1912 Précis des maladies des vieillards. Still, this source does not account for all old age notes in this Notebook. There are still unidentified clusters on pages 54-55, 115 and 125-127 that maybe someday someone will find on the gallica.bnf.fr site or who knows in the last surviving antiquarian bookshop. For completeness’ sake, we chose to include source no. 1, A. P. Graves’ Irish Literary and Musical Studies, which was already indexed in the Genetic Joyce Studies 18 (Spring 2108), gathering the VI.B.2 and VI.B.11 notes, and accompanied by an article detailing possible overlapping use of the Notebooks: • Viviana-Mirela Braslasu and Robbert-Jan Henkes, “Irish Literary and Musical Studies in Notebooks VI.B.2 and VI.B.11” www.geneticjoycestudies.org/articles/GJS18/GJS18_Braslasu_Henkes; • Viviana-Mirela Braslasu and Robbert-Jan Henkes, “Order/Disorder in Finnegans Wake Notebooks VI.B.2 Nativities and VI.B.11 Assistance” www.geneticjoycestudies.org/articles/GJS18/GJS18_Braslasu_Henkes2.
