17.01.2022 SA Prison Ship for Boys: "Shame of the Fitzjames" by Colin James in today's Sunday Mail underlines the indelible stain that caused the need for the Prototype Colony of SA born out of Enlightenment and Fiscal necessity still blighted us. By the 1870s Adelaide was struggling with "miscreant boys" colloquially known as "Arabs" (their dirty appearance apparently between 7-15)They were pickpockets, stole food as they were homeless. Solution was the source of many of the Convicts s...ent to Port Jackson in 1788, a leaky hulk, first purchased from Victoria as a quarantine for infectious immigrants. However from 1880-1891 hundreds of boys sent from the Destitute Board. The hulk leaked seriously, cleanliness was deplorable and it is noted "that for some years under the supervision of a paedophile or in the company of a 15 year old rapist" Reformatory Hulks days were numbered when Chief Justice Sir Samuel Way sent inspectors out to the hulk moored off Largs Bay. Nothing remains of the hulk hence it became a little known shameful chapter in South Australian history. See more

09.01.2022 On May 5, 1821, Napoleon Bonaparte died in exile on St Helena. A few days prior to his death Napoleon had requested doctor's examination. Bonaparte had long suspected that the English Governor was poisoning him with arsenic. A lock of hair had been removed and preserved in a gold locket in 1816. A handwritten note inside explains the hair was obtained by Admiral George Brine, who was posted to guard Napoleon at St Helena while in command of HMS Mosquito. Brine, spent three years guarding Napoleon, had earlier in his career served aboard HMS Victory, Lord Nelson's flagship at the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805.
