Devon Oddity Echoes From a Yeoman's Farm Life

A Devon man from old yeoman stock stood out for looks wit and idiosyncrasies. He wore a light summer cap defying family norms, pursued a solitary farm life with early rising and late rides, and mocked conventional crops while keeping gentle humor. He trained as a doctor briefly, fled to Gretna Green, and later sold his land for a lucrative, well-timed exit.

Second Marriages in Parlor of Folklore and Finance

A Liverpool Daily Post anecdote collection on second marriages contrasts a tailor's and an alderman's fates at St Peter's gate. It threads through a Bank of England note figure and quips from a minister's dismissals, arithmetic lessons, and a beggar's demand, all with light humor and cultural edge.

Voyage of the India to Melbourne 1839 1840

A daughter of Rev Andrew Lore recounts the voyage of the India under Captain Campbell from Greenwich in 1839. The ship endured storms, two dismastings, and a lightning fire before reaching Port Phillip Bay. Melbourne's rough first days included famine prices, huts, and a perilous landing by the mother with five children. The family helped establish Geelong's first brick manse, while interaction with indigenous Australians occurred amid early colonial scenes.
