but Mary got an idea, and went to the local land office and found out
that it was `unoccupied Crown land', and so I took it up on pastoral lease,
and got a few more sheep -- I'd saved some of the best-looking ewes
One evening -- I was going down next day for a load of fencing-wire
`Joe! do you know that the Matthews have got a new double buggy?'

and I didn't think much of them. The sons were all `bad-eggs',
though the old woman and girls were right enough.
