'Manoah' was the name of the Adelaide Hills estate of Sir Josiah Symon 1846-1934; 'F A S' may be a Symon family member. Sir Josiah Symon 'was born in Scotland and migrated to South Australia in 1866. He was called to the South Australian Bar in 1871 and became Attorney-General in a conservative government when he won the state seat of Sturt in 1881. Sir Josiah was the acknowledged leader of the South Australian Bar for over 30 years through his understanding of the law and skill as an advocate. His major contribution to Australian politics was in the area of Federation. He was a prominent member of the 1897-98 Australasian Federal Convention. He saw the major issues of Federation as equal representation of the states in the Senate; the solution of deadlocks between the two Houses of Parliament; the Murray River; and the establishment of an Australian Supreme Court to replace the Privy Council. The first three issues are still topical today the fourth was resolved several years ago. Sir Josiah was a person of broad scholarship. He wrote "Shakespeare the Englishman" in 1929 and was a member of several literary associations. The library at Sir Josiah's Upper Sturt estate "Manoah" consisted of 10000 law and literature volumes reflecting his interests in Shakespeare travel history and biography. He bequeathed his collection excluding approximately 2500 law books to the State Library where it remains an excellent example of a "gentleman's library". The terms of the bequest were that the books should not be marked or rebound which makes it a useful source of examples of original bindings particularly in pictorial cloth' State Library of South Australia website.
