AbstractHistoryArchive Description

The first item in the Freeman's Journal's weekly news summary concerns the oration delivered by the Rev. Dr Charles Badham, Professor of Classics and Logic, at the University of Sydney's Annual Commemoration. During his speech, Dr Badham attacked the Freeman's Journal and declared his (albeit mistaken) pleasure that the newspaper 'has ceased to exist'. The writer for the Freeman's Journal returns serve, pondering in what manner the journal might have offended Dr Badham and concluding: 'Fie! Reverend Doctor Badham, your temper has for once got the better of your classics and logic'.
