A young Queenslander falls in love with a fascinating girl from town but is jilted in favour of a titled man with money. He becomes a misogynist of the deepest dye and buries himself in a veritable wilderness called Rocky Section — miles from anywhere. One day he discovers a girl near his place who has evidently lost her way and fainted from sheer exhaustion. He takes her to his hut and revives her only to find that she has lost her memory and cannot tell where she comes from. He hates women with a bitter hatred but is on the horns of a dilemma. What happens "The way out" is most interesting but you must read it for yourself." Bookseller stamp: J. H. Lundager My Morgan. Steele Rudd & Co. Ltd / Powell & Co. (Printers) hardcover

The next 100 pages are devoted to dyes. Partridge discusses in detail the which natural materials produce colors pigments how to make the extractions and finally how to mix the extracts with solvents and oils to create a color that will fix when applied to textile material.
