Notes

  • This article was 'dictated by Mr Meston whilst suffering from the illness that resulted in his death.' Meston's last published words are characteristic: 'The scrub turkey is one of our best game birds, and will be one of the first to become extinct. His doom is as inevitable as that of the aboriginal.'
