Great Britain and Ireland Parliamentary Paper 174 of 1841 the House of Lords issue Ferguson 3221 with minor pagination errors: see also Ferguson 3218 and 3219. 'This Report contains very complete information regarding the Colony from its foundation in 1836 to 1841' Ferguson 3219 referring to the Second Report. Wakefield's self-supporting system of colonization administered by the South Australian Colonization Commission failed and the commission was dissolved in January 1840. 'The new board of three salaried commissioners slowly became aware that the colony's funds in London were rapidly dwindling. After months of inexcusable procrastination they had no choice but to throw the colony on the mercies of the Colonial Office. Nevertheless the blame of their own shortcomings and extravagance was placed squarely on Governor Gawler for his irregularities "reckless" expenditure and alleged grave errors of judgment.' The imperial parliament accepted the select committee's recommendations and took control of the colony's affairs. Although the select committee had refused to condemn Gawler and reported that 'even his severest critics had suggested no way in which Gawler's expenditure might have been significantly reduced' he was abandoned as the scapegoat and after his recall in May 1841 he was never again to find public employment 'Australian Dictionary of Biography'. The maps are: 1 Plan of the District of Adelaide shewing the application of the Running Survey to that locality Water Sections coloured approximately 500 � 600 mm; 2 The District of Adelaide South Australia; As divided into Country Sections. From the Trigonometrical Surveys of Colonel Light . 500 � 600 mm; 3 The Maritime Portion of South Australia from Capn. Flinders and the more recent Surveys made by the Survr. Genl. of the Colonies 620 � 500 mm; and 4 Map shewing the Special Survey in South Australia to the Eastward of the Gulf of St Vincent 515 � 600 mm. From the notable collection of Rodney Davidson with his bookplate on the front pastedown. 'Communicated by the Commons to the Lords' paperback

Horace Walpole Press. ROGERS FE. F. E.
Ballades Rondeaus and Occasional Verse
Adelaide: 'Printed and Published by the Author' 1931. First Edition. Hardcover. Fine. Adelaide 'Printed and Published by the Author' 1931. Octavo 171 pages with the press mark on the title page. Flush-cut quarter cloth and papered boards; essentially a fine copy of a very indifferent production. Inscribed by the author who later released his hand-set and -printed items under the imprint of The Horace Walpole Press. Offered together with four other titles from the Press: 'Occasional Verse' by Rogers 1933; 'More Occasional Verse' by Rogers 1935 and 'Selections from Modern French Poetry' and 'Dips into the Classics' both translated by H.E. Ashley and F.E. Rogers. Although the last two mentioned are undated Farmer Private Presses and Australia 1972 gives 1938 as the publication date of 'Selections from Modern French Poetry'. As this book lists all of the titles recorded by Farmer other than 'Memoirs of a Medico' 1941 it seems reasonable to suggest that the six undated titles in Farmer appeared not later than 1938. Of the four extra titles offered here only 'Occasional Verse' is not inscribed and signed by Rogers. 'Printed and Published by the Author' hardcover

Fellow-passenger James Allen also published his version of events. Captain William Randell and his paddle-steamer 'Mary Ann' left Goolwa at the Murray mouth ahead of Cadell and travelled much farther up the Murray but Cadell overtook him en route and reached Swan Hill first. However both men deservedly earned the bonus of 2000 pounds offered by the South Australian Government 'for each of the first two steamers to travel up the Murray as far as the Darling junction' Australian Dictionary of Biography.

State Children in Australia. A History of Boarding Out and its Developments
Adelaide: printed by Vardon and Sons for the State Children's Council 1907. First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good. Adelaide printed by Vardon and Sons for the State Children's Council 1907. Octavo i 147 pages plus 6 plates. Original green cloth with the title in gilt on the spine; cloth slightly rubbed and bumped at the extremities and lightly marked; new endpapers; trifling nick to the leading edge of the first ten leaves; an excellent copy. 'This book is a labour of love. It was written by Miss Spence as a recognition of the services to the children of the State rendered by her friend Miss C.E. Clark. The two ladies have been friends for fifty years and were associated in the beginning of the Boarding Out of State Children in South Australia. Miss Spence wrote the book and the Council and other friends have subscribed to print and publish it . It is sent forth to assist any fellow-workers among children to whom its pages may bring encouragement stimulus or information.' This may explain why the book - at least in our experience - is rare and the only other copy we have handled was bound in green cloth without the green lettering also apparently original. Not marked as such but from the collection of Sir Edward Charles Stirling. printed by Vardon and Sons [for the State Children's Council] hardcover

Photography. STEPHENSON Edward R.
Essays and Miscellaneous Pieces by the late Edward R. Stephenson. With a preface by his friend C. Todd
Adelaide: Andrews Thomas and Clark 1865. First Edition. Hardcover. Very Good. Adelaide Andrews Thomas and Clark 1865. Octavo ii frontispiece ii title leaf vi 118 vi book review pages with 2 mounted albumen paper photographs one is a frontispiece portrait of Stephenson 87 � 57 mm; the other is of a sketch presumably by Stephenson 103 � 57 mm. The book review reprinted from the South Australian Register December 28 1865 has been folded down the middle before being bound in. Full morocco now expertly rebacked all edges gilt contemporary but probably not original - we have only seen blind-stamped cloth before; corners worn front and rear covers a little scuffed; overall a very good copy. One of the earliest Australian imprints illustrated with original photographs see Holden: 'Photography in Colonial Australia' Sydney 1988 where it is incorrectly referred to in the text and index as Stevensen. The first essay the St Peter's Collegiate School Prize Essay of 1864 is entitled 'The Difficulties of Colonization in the Northern Territory' 17 pages; another two pages are devoted to the importance of the acquisition of the Northern Territory to South Australia. Almost half the book 58 pages is given over to verse by Stephenson who died at the age of 18 in May 1865. Inscribed on an early blank in what we know to be the hand of Charles Todd to 'Mr Edwd Stirling Junr / Xmas 1865'; with the pictorial bookplate 'Gang forward' of Edward Charles Stirling. Ferguson 16245; Holden 103. We have previously sold a copy inscribed by Todd to his daughter on 4 December 1865 in which the review was loosely inserted as an eight-page pamphlet. The Christmas inscription and the inclusion of the review not published until 28 December suggest that this morocco binding came after the event. Andrews, Thomas, and Clark hardcover
