AbstractHistoryArchive Description

Episodic narrative of two mining mates in Victoria in 1845. They appear not to have done well but leave one night without farewells. A dead man being licked by a dog and a drunken digger's confession of a murder through greed for gold complete the tale. Style of some interest. (PB)
