Smoker’s Stratagem and Oddities in a Melbourne Paper
A fragmentary Melbourne periodical excerpt describes Reverend Lorimer Fon as a humorous Wesleyan with a backbone who edited a paper while smoking a pipe. It mentions readers praising Fison, a tale about a plug of tobacco, pigeon experiments, season memory in summer versus winter, a railway caution, and a curious sign reading Mind Your Own Business. The piece features snippets of ad copy and satirical notices involving various locals.
