Without inquiring too rigidly concerning his share in founding Sydney Punch, it may be safely affirmed, that without Captain Butler's monetary and Fred. Sinnet's literary aid Melbourne Punch would never have seen light at all. Edgar could never have managed to pilot that humourous venture for any lengthened period, for he had not the capital, commercial or intellectual; but he was adroit and shrewd, and a tactician of no mean order.'
