Boldrewood

Lady Darley was a very cultivated woman, sister to Rolf Boldrewood, author of Robbery under Arms, whose real name was Thomas Browne.

I have referred to Rolf Boldrewood’s hero “Starlight.”

Chronologically, they were the first gentlefolk of the land—"Rolf Boldrewood" speaks of some of them in his Old Melbourne Memories—and they still merit the title in another sense.

My friend, "Rolf Boldrewood," had not yet received the worldwide recognition that he now enjoys; he was a "Sydneysider," and supposed to belong to his own colony.

It is not often that stories of colonial life are so interesting as Mr. Boldrewood's Squatter's Dream.
