Untitled but first sentence is: 'There are nettles everywhere, but smooth green grasses are more common still' (Elizabeth Barrett Browning).

Archive Collections / Ursula Hope McConnel / Series AA 191/07 / Untitled but first sentence is: 'There are nettles everywhere, but smooth green grasses are more common still' (Elizabeth Barrett Browning).
24 leaves, 25 pages, unpaginated, undated [but probably 1937], handwritten in ink with emendations in ink; 23rd leaf appears a fragment; 24th leaf blank.


First 22 leaves appear to be a complete text for an address to a meeting of the Country Women's Association. It refers to her 'recent' address to the Toogoolawah branch, which was made in 1936 (see above). It refers to the magazine 'Walkabout', August, Cape York Peninsula', a reference to her articles under that heading published there in 1936. So this is very likely the text of the address she had expected to give at the 1937 annual CWA State meeting but which was rejected by the State Council because of its topic: State Aboriginal policy. In the tin trunk it was next to the AA 191/07/17.
