Notes

  • This witty and often satirical sequence of poems appeared in the Queenslander along with accompanying illustrations by staff artists 'The Demon' and J. Cecil Gasking (q.v.). Note that the numbering of the various parts was inconsistent, with both numbers and Roman numerals being used. There also appears not to have been a part VI, and there were two parts numbered VIII.
