1913réf. 114191Manchester: Mack & Co. Photographers 1913. Very Good. Manchester Mack & Co. Photographers 1913. A gelatin silver photograph image size 240 × 283 mm on the original mount external dimensions 375 × 455 mm; the caption is in white ink in a calligraphic hand below the image; the details of the photographic studio are printed below an embossed printed border. The mount is a little rubbed and worn at the extremities with a small sealed crack to one margin; there is minor surface damage to the mount well clear of the image and caption where an old window mat has been removed; the photograph has a few tiny surface blemishes near the bottom edge but overall in excellent condition. At the time Archibald Henry Peake 1859-1920 was the Premier of South Australia a position he held on three occasions 1909-1910 1912-1915 and 1917-1920. He died in office on 6 April 1920. In 1912 'the Liberals won an eight-seat majority . Peake again became premier treasurer and minister of education. His government concentrated on constructing rural railway lines often against expert advice. Most proved uneconomic impoverishing the railways for years. In 1912 the government created the Industrial Arbitration Court; in return for the introduction by it of a minimum wage workers lost the right to strike or to engage in any activity which might prolong a strike. Six o'clock closing of hotels was carried at a plebiscite simultaneously with the 1915 election and remained for over fifty years. Peake's government liberalized the franchise for the Legislative Council. In London in 1913 Peake had an audience with King George V and recorded his experiences in "Notes from a Diary" 1914. The ministry's major achievement was its arrangement in 1914 with the Federal New South Wales and Victorian governments for the locking of the Murray River: the River Murray Commission carried out the co-ordinating agreement' 'Australian Dictionary of Biography'. The nature of this item and the fact that we purchased it with other photographs identified as such suggest strongly that it was originally in the possession of Peake himself. Mack & Co.

1876réf. 23907Boston: Forbes Lith. Mfg. Co. 1876. First edition. This scarce tinted lithograph was issued to commemorate the escape of Irish political prisoners from Fremantle W.A. on April 17th 1876. The Fenians are shown rowing towards the bark which is under full sail. The Catalpa is flying a flag with the initials "J T R" - for John T Richardson the ship's agent. A pennant with the letter C the Fenian flag and the American flag are also flying. The police boat is in hot pursuit and the British steamship "Georgette" is steaming in from a distance. Among the Fenians freed in this effort was John Boyle O'Reilly who became a leading citizen in Boston and was later to edit the 'Boston Pilot'. Captain George Anthony an American whaling captain out of New Bedford Massachusetts recruited a crew for this mission and set sail for Western Australia where two Fenian agents John Breslin and Tom Desmond had already established themselves with aliases. With several delays the day for the escape was set for the 17th of April when most of the convict garrison was distracted by watching the Perth Yacht Club regatta. Captain Anthony who refused to surrender the escaped prisoners to the British later sold his story to Zephaniah W. Pease who published the account in 'The Catalpa Expedition'. See also Laubenstein 'The Emerald Whaler'. On its arrival in New York in August of 1876 the Catalpa was met with great crowds; jubilant celebrations were held in the US and Ireland. 17 x 13" on paper 22 x 14 1/4".
