Abstract:
In 1891, in the Supreme Court of New South Wales, Mrs. Olivia Mayne brought an action for breach of contract against two brothers, theatrical entrepreneurs, James and Charles MacMahon. Mrs. Mayne claimed the MacMahon brothers owed her money for the hire of her property, a boxing kangaroo called “Fighting Jack.” The MacMahons contested her claim, hoping to avoid their obligation by disputing the legally binding nature of the agreement they had made with her. The argument became one about the contractual capacity of a married woman.

Abstract:
AbstractThe transition from shepherding to fencing in colonial Australia was a technological revolution replacing labour with capital. Fencing could not be widespread in Australia until an historical conjunction of technological, social and economic changes: open camping of sheep (from about 1810), effective poisoning of dingoes with strychnine (from the mid-1840s), introduction of iron wire (1840s), better land tenure (from 1847), progressive reduction of Aboriginal populations, huge demand for meat (from 1851) and high wages (from 1851). Labour shortages in the gold-rushes of the early 1850s were the final trigger, but all the other changes were essential precursors. Available data are used to test the alleged benefits of fencing: a higher wool cut per head; an increased carrying capacity; savings in wages and the running costs of stations; less disease in flocks; larger sheep; higher lambing percentages, and use of land unsuitable for shepherding. Many of the benefits were real, but some cannot be verified. By the mid-1880s, over ninety-five per cent of sheep in New South Wales were in paddocks, wire fences were spreading rapidly, and the cost of fences was falling. However, shepherding persisted in remote northern areas of Australia until well into the twentieth century.

Abstract:
Colonial Australian science grew by a process of transplantation, adaptation, and innovation in response to local conditions. The discovery of gold in 1851, and the location of vast resources of other minerals, transformed the colonies, as it did the imperial economy. In this process, the role of mining engineering and mining education played a significant part. Its history, long neglected by historians, illuminates the ways in which the colonial universities sought to guide and direct this engine of change, conscious both of overseas precedent and local necessity. This paper considers the particular circumstances of New South Wales, and the role of the University of Sydney, in seizing the day—and producing a degree—that lasted nearly a century.

Abstract:
Archibald Meston (b. 1851) is remembered as the framer in Queensland of the 1897 Aboriginal Protection Act, legislation which he later helped to implement as Southern Protector. From 1870 until his death in 1924, he published hundreds of articles, stories, poems and letters in Queensland and New South Wales newspapers. While by no means distinguished as literature, this mass of material invites attention not only for its diverse discourses on Indigenous people, but also because it helped to shape the idea of Queensland held by residents and outsiders. The state's history, natural history and geography are Meston's most frequent subjects. This essay seeks to understand further the ideological significance of his journalistic construction of Queensland by examining the connections cultivated in his writings with the poetry of the Romantics, Byron and Shelley, and their American successors, Longfellow and Poe.

Abstract:
The last decade of the nineteenth century is widely viewed as one of the most momentous in Australian history. There are many studies which focus on the period, thematically or as broad historical narratives of the Australian colonies. There are none that explore how the events and themes were manifested in rural NSW, nor are there any analyses which reveal the experiences of ordinary people. This thesis explores the suppositions about the early years of the 1890s in Central West NSW through the lens of ordinary people. What is evident in this study is that it was day-to-day affairs that dominated the lives of most people who were concerned that the stability, trust, cohesiveness and prosperity of their communities, characteristics associated with Tönnies’ concept of gemeinschaft, were not undermined. This is an account of the Central West during this period. As a regional history, a genre that has been largely ignored in recent years, it is a worthwhile narrative on its own account but it also enables an analysis of larger themes and their impact on daily life. In addition to concentrating on a specific area, I have focussed on a short span or a ‘slice’ of time – 1891 to 1893 – as a means of more effectively dealing with a multifaceted and almost overwhelming eventful decade. It is a history ‘as lived’ highlighting everyday experiences without the benefit of hindsight, but without neglecting a full historical analysis. Ordinary people are habitually overlooked in most traditional and social histories of colonial NSW. Biographers have chronicled individual lives but there are few collective biographies, the study of which could shed light on wider historical issues. Hundreds of individuals appear in and are pivotal to this study. They come from a broad range of occupations and different socio-economic backgrounds and represent diverse communities of interest. Hitherto many have been chiefly anonymous and often there are scant personal details. Nonetheless, it is their stories that enrich and enlighten this study.

Abstract:
This thesis examines the life and times of D'Arcy Wentworth. Born in 1762 in Portadown, Ireland, he attended a local school, trained as a doctor in Tanderagee and moved to England in 1785 to further his medical studies. While in London, Wentworth appeared at the Old Bailey charged with highway robbery. Although acquitted, he saw no future by remaining in England. With the help of his family and friends, he secured a berth on the Neptune In 1790 and sailed for the penal colony of New South Wales. For Wentworth, this land of exiles was to become a land of opportunity, but the road was not easy. He encountered the prejudice, factionalism and petty-mindedness of a small and insular community. At times it seemed as if he would succumb to despondency, or bow to the caprices of his fellow colonists. On a number of occasions he threatened to return home. Yet he remained in the colony and, with quiet determination, set about making good. Wentworth stands out as one of the few officers who served almost continuously from the time of Governor Phillip, through the troubled administrations of Hunter, King and Bligh, to those of Macquarie and Brisbane. During the years from 1790 to 1827 he weathered financial setbacks, personal attacks and political Intrigue. With time he managed to redeem his name, win the respect and admiration of many colonists, and acquire vast estates. He also made a significant contribution to the economic growth and development of the settlement, assisting in its transition from a prison to a self-sufficient and relatively prosperous colony which enjoyed a measure of freedom. In this biographical study I have endeavoured to examine Wentworth’s character and actions in the context of the people and the events that surrounded him in an attempt to explain what he thought and did, and why he was as he was.
