Description
Excerpt from The Caves of Shend
I had returned on a visit to Australia from England after an absence of about forty years. AS I had come on business, and my visit was likely to be brief, I was staying at the big hotel in Castlereagh Street, when one morning I received an urgent invitation from an old friend I had well-nigh forgotten named Dr Strong, a wealthy bachelor who was living in the south-eastern suburbs of Sydney. So, having a few days to Spare before the sailing of the mail steamer by which I was returning, I availed myself of his hospitality and the opportunity to. Repair an old Australian friendship.
