Excerpt
As a mere child I must have knocked around quite a bit, for i was born near Suva, in the Fiji Islands, and when things went all wrong there with the planting, and my dear old dad thought it necessary to shift camp, we came to Australia. There for several years we followed the usual nomadic life that most families live whose head has got to pick up a living somehow. It is unlikely that my father would have minded these vicissitudes of fortune much, had it not been for my mother, myself—the eldest of the family— and my two sisters.
