Sydney Scribes on Post Office Tales and Irish Letters
A writer recalls early postal life and telegraph strains, praising officials while sharing humorous anecdotes of postmasters and a fiddled courtship in Glenorchie. The piece notes Irish letters from 1858 and the need for more post and telegraph staff to improve public service.
Australia’s thrilling third test win eclipses rivals
The piece lauds Australia’s dramatic comeback in the third test with standout innings from Olem Hill who scored 160 despite illness, and a nod to the Hill family’s cricket legacy at Adelaide Oval. It also critiques English selection and notes broader sports and defence topics, including NZ racing policy and a defence scheme discussion led by Minister Ewing.
