Author's note: 'When I was a child ... not every swan was called a trumpeter. The aboriginals, regarding the wild birds and animals as their flocks and herds, had provision made for their preservation. The great old leaders of flight were known and never killed ... I remember well the disgust of my own people when a man who was either a 'new-chum' from overseas, or a 'green-horn' from the city, shot, and boasted of shooting, a trumpter.'
