In the Far North No. I : Tragedies of the Barrier, Archibald Meston , single work essay
This article consists of a series of adventure and horror stories set on Barrier Reef islands or coastal north Queensland. They deal with conflicts between European crews and Aborigines; swimming feats by shipwrecked fishermen; encounters with crocodiles; the death of Kennedy's men; a rifle duel between settlers; and the loss of the Pipon Island lightship in a cyclone that also wrecked the pearling fleet.
