She was ayoung South Australian wife, charming alike in person and manners, andsurrounded by a little troop of children, some with the stamp of her ownbeauty. She died not long afterwards, prematurely cut down, alas! likemany another bright flower in the world's great garden. Next year, 1845, I reached Warrnambool, just then commencing its urbanlife with a few straggling small white houses, along the edge of itspretty semicircular bay. I had passed Mounts Noorat and Shadwell, occupied respectiv...ely by Mr. Neil Black and Captain Webster, both earlycolonists, and was once more in raptures with the spectacle of almostcontinuously rich soil. I also came upon several round, deep, andmysterious-looking lakes, one of which, with its waters far below me, Idescended to examine with no slight sensation of awe. I was told ofbeautiful and grand coast scenes towards the east and Cape Otway; butthe ways were of Nature's uninviting hardness, and I apprehended a maindifficulty of the Glenmutchkin Railway kind, from want of house or humanbeing to help dependent humanity.
