Skuthorp's response to letters from
Sydney Morning Herald readers, including
Dick Macdonald (q.v.), on the subject of Adam Lindsay Gordon's horseback 'leap', supposedly made at the Blue Lake fence near Mount Gambier. Here Skuthorp also gives details of his own 'leap', supposedly made in the same vicinity, and refutes Macdonald's doubts as to whether he (Skuthorp) had in fact made the leap.
