[Mining; New Guinea] Clayton, H EdwardBiblio.com

TLS from the Laloki Mine Papua New Guinea 28th October 1923

202912 page TLS describing in great detail the difficulties in setting up a mining operation in New Guinea. The author H. Edward Clayton is attempting to set up an aerial tramway to transport the ore. It is 3 1/2 miles long and passes over very rough country - the difficulty in hauling the cable is palpable. Clearly having been engaged in mining in other parts of the world before he speaks of Papua NG as "the worst country I've struck in getting anything started up" with no facilities the necessity of setting up your own company mess where as in the past "anywhere else a bording sic house keeper will light along and start up a show even if it does a bit of sly grog as well". He blames the "Navigation Act" which he calls "a curse on this country". "We have Dutch and Japanese boats passing within a hundred miles and the only ones allowed to call here are the little island boats of B.P's; the work is too much for them and the result is high fares and feights sic and infrequent service." Several other people are mentioned. There is a reference to "Bill Horsburgh" who is the assayer on this mine married with three children one of them was hospitalized for rheumatic fever in Port Moresby. "Bill has changed a good deal- as quiet as can be until he has a few in and the crust cracks." This could be a reference to William Horsburgh born in Queensland and married to Frances Stella Clayton. W.W. Horsburgh was an assayer and worked with the Dubuna and Laloki Mines of the New Guinea Copper Mines until at least 1927. It's possible that the author of the letter is related in some way to Horsburgh's wife. Clayton also asks after a George Osborne. We presume that the Laloki Mine is part of the Astrolabe mineral field near Port Moresby a massive copper mine that ran from 1907 to 1926 at the Laloki and Dubuna Mines and transported by light rail and aerial ropeway to a smelter near the Tahira Inlet wharf. Geology & Mining Potential of New Guinea by Wiliamson and Hancock 2005. 2 pp 8x10" signed H. Edward Clayton. Old folds very good condition overall. unknown

[Misima Island, Papua New Guinea]. [WILSON, William D]Biblio.com

A collection of 36 vintage photographs of Papua New Guinea with the majority of them relating to Misima Island a volcanic island in the north-west of the Louisiade Archipelago within Milne Bay Province

140780Very Good. Original gelatin silver photographs 33 postcard-format approximately 88 × 145 mm or the reverse and three smaller prints that overlap to form a panoramic view of Block 10 Gold Mine on Misima Island 127 × 190 mm. The majority have inscriptions on the verso see below; 11 have identifying captions six have routine messages to family members. Only a handful appear to be commercially-produced postcards. Undated but probably 1920s. Minimal signs of age and use; overall in excellent condition. The majority of the photographs form a near-complete series bearing a manuscript number and the initials 'W.D.W' in ink on the verso. There are 30 items numbered 2-13 15-24 26-29 32 and 34-36. We have established the initials are those of W.D. Wilson a builder and contractor and that he lived in suburban Adelaide at Largs Bay in the 1920s and Semaphore in the 1930s. The messages are to four of his children Rita Florrie Merle and an unidentified boy: curiously some of the names are scratched out of these messages; these tend to be on photographs taken in Rabaul. The subject matter and captions of some of the photographs suggest he may have been working on the island possibly at Block 10 Misima Gold Mine at Umuna. The three-panel panorama and two other photographs feature the mine site with its 'crushing mills cyaniding vats sawmill black-smiths' and carpenters' shops electric lighting staff accommodation . and . tramway' Hank Nelson: 'Black White and Gold: Goldmining in Papua New Guinea 1878-1930' ANU Press 2016 now available online. Chapter 3 'Misima: warlike and civilised' is most informative. Other captions relating to Misima Island include 'Three Awaikivas Orokaivas'; 'Native hut Lappapai'; 'Ocean going Canoe with outrigger. Lappapai'; 'Shell hunting on the Coral. Lappapai'; and 'Bwagoia' one of the main villages. 36 items. unknown

[NEW GUINEA] ERSKINE, Commodore James EBiblio.com

Narrative of the Expedition of the Australian Squadron to the south-east coast of New Guinea October to December 1884. With illustrations

18854504633Sydney: Thomas Richards Government Printer 1885. Slight rubbing to binding in handsome & original condition; interior lightly foxed in places; map with repaired tear; images all bright and crisp. Large square folio with a folding map three coloured lithograph plates 33 original silver albumen photographs 283 x 212 mm mounted on card with printed captions and borders and two superb panoramas one of them double-page 240 x 553 mm and the other on four sheets 242 x 1053 mm; original dark blue grained morocco binding bevelled edges spine banded and sides with multiple borders in gilt front cover lettered in gilt all edges gilded. This rare and sumptuous album published in very small numbers and illustrated with actual photographs has been called the first example of Australian photo-journalism: 'the most magnificent example of an Australian work in this genre the high point in relation to which all other examples can be considered' Holden. It is most impressive as an ethnographic album one of the first such produced in the South Pacific. A special copy was delivered to Her Majesty the Queen as "a keen supporter of photography." The photographs all date from the 1884 expedition when Commodore Erskine proclaimed a British protectorate over the south coast of New Guinea. Although unattributed at the time all images were made by the New South Wales Government Printing Office and were chiefly the work of Augustine Dyer 1873-1923. Principally intended as a visual record the album shows the importance of the Hood Lagoon area of Papua New Guinea in British and Australian ambitions with six depictions of the region effectively a sixth of the finished work. The superb series of ethnographic and exploration photographs commemorating the 1884 expedition was printed and the albums assembled in Sydney in a small edition for presentation. Sir James Erskine R.N. 1838-1911 in 1885 was Private Secretary to Lord Northbrook the first Lord of the Admiralty and became Commodore of the Australian Station in January 1882. Erskine leased "Carthona" the grand Gothic-revival house built on Darling Point in 1841 for the explorer Sir Thomas Mitchell. In the 1880s it was owned by the solicitor Arthur Mansfield Allen but he was offering it to be let fully furnished in June 1884 and Erskine is known to have been resident there soon after. It is a piece of photo-reportage unmatched by any other work of this time and place. Through the positioning of images of the official ceremonies alongside topographical views of the surrounding areas the photographs themselves become a true part of the narrative: the first photographic images of the meeting between Imperial forces and Hood Bay chiefs. One of the remarkable images is a scene on board HMS Nelson as Erskine addressed some of the assembled tribal elders 'Commodore addressing Chiefs on board HMS Nelson Hood Bay' one seen grasping an ebony staff. Erskine had handed out a number of the staffs to local chiefs as "an emblem of authority in the form of an ebony stick with a florin let in at the top the Queen's Head being uppermost and encircled by a band of silver" Lyne New Guinea pp. 13 114-118. The motivation for the Australian Squadron's to New Guinea expedition under Erskine's command was imperialistic: "The Imperial Government. decided to take steps to establish a Protectorate over that part of the southern shores of new Guinea to the east of the territory claimed by the Netherlands with the double object of preventing any foreign occupation of the country and of protecting the inhabitants from aggression.". This declaration of the expedition's objective belies the tone of much of Erskine's Narrative which reads more like a travelogue than an official account. "Picturesque" is the most often used descriptive term along with such passages as "the striking variety and beauty of the colour in the adjacent water were enchanting and struck the beholder with wonder and admiration." Similarly Erskine's own speech considered for many years as a "Declaration of Rights" for New Guinea contrasts strongly with the text of the Proclamation itself. The latter is couched in formal imperial language whereas the former looks ahead in more open terms to the real benefits that the tribesmen might expect and is very specific regarding the protection offered by Her Majesty Queen Victoria: "look upon white persons whom the Queen permits to reside amongst you as your friends .". A full list of the images can be seen at hordern.com. The photographs are: 1 "Port Moresby from the Mission Station." Four-sheet panorama. 2 "H.M.S. 'Nelson' at Port Moresby S.W." 3 "General View of Settlement at Port Moresby N.N.E." 4 "Commodore shaking hands with Native Chief 'OBE Vagi' on board H.M.S.
