	Sir Walter Norris Congreve VC [KCB 1917]
	Congreve was commissioned in the Rifle Brigade in 1885. He took part in the second Boer War, and was present at the Battle of Colenso on 15 December 1899, where his actions won him a Victoria Cross. The citation published in the London Gazette (issue 27160, page 689) reads:-
	At Colenso on the 15th December, 1899, the detachments serving the guns of the 14th and 66th Batteries, Royal Field Artillery, had all been either killed, wounded, or driven from their guns by Infantry fire at close range, and the guns were deserted. About 500 yards behind the guns was a donga in which some of the few horses and drivers left alive were sheltered. The intervening space was swept with shell and rifle fire. Captain Congreve, Rifle Brigade, who was in the donga, assisted to hook a team into a limber [the detachable front section of a gun carriage], went out and assisted to limber up a gun. Being wounded, he took shelter; but, seeing Lieutenant Roberts fall, badly wounded, he went out again and brought him in. Captain Congreve was shot through the leg, through the toe of his boot, grazed on the elbow and the shoulder and his horse shot in three places.
	Four Victoria Crosses were awarded for this action - Congreve, Lieutenant Frederick Hugh Sherston Roberts, Captain Harry Norton Schofield and Corporal George Edward Nurse. Roberts was the son of Frederick Sleigh Roberts, 1st Baron Roberts and later (1901) 1st Earl Roberts, who had previously won a Victoria Cross in the Indian Mutiny. As a result, the two Robertses became one of only three father/son pairs to win the Victoria Cross. Remarkably, one of the other two was Congreve himself, his son William la Touche Congreve being posthumously awarded a Victoria Cross in 1916. The other father/son pairing was Sir Charles John Stanley Gough and his son Sir John Edmund Gough, both of whom have their own entries in these pages.
	Although not mentioned in the citation, Congreve was assisted in the rescue of Lieutenant Roberts by Major [Sir] William Babtie - see the note under his entry in these pages.
	After the Boer War Congreve held a number of command posts in Britain and Ireland. At the outbreak of WW1 he was deployed to France as a Brigadier General, later rising to full General, and subsequently becoming General Officer Commanding of the Egyptian Expeditionary Force between 1919 and 1923, and Commander in Chief of the Southern Command 1923‑1924. He then became Governor of Malta, where he subsequently died.
	In June 1927, Congreve's younger son, Geoffrey Cecil Congreve, was created a baronet. Although not mentioned in the citation published in the London Gazette (issue 33292, page 4406), The Times in its issue on 31 July 1941 states in his obituary that Sir Geoffrey Congreve "was the second son of the late General Sir Walter Congreve VC, KCB, and was created a baronet of Congreve, County Stafford, in 1927. His father was Governor and Commander-in-Chief of Malta and died just before his intended nomination to a baronetcy. The honour was in consequence conferred upon his second surviving son."
	Sir John Guise Cowley GC [KBE 1958]
	Early in the morning of 31 May 1935, one of history's most devastating earthquakes occurred near Quetta in Baluchistan, British India (now Pakistan). Estimates of its magnitude average 7.7 with a death toll of between 35,000 and 60,000. For his heroism during this earthquake Cowley, then a lieutenant, was awarded the Albert Medal. The citation, which appeared in the London Gazette of 19 November 1935 (issue 34221, page 7317) read:-
	Lieutenant John Guise Cowley, Royal Engineers, 16th Army Troops Company, Q.Y.O. Madras Sappers and Miners. Lieutenant Cowley and his party were the first to start relief work at the Civil Hospital where the walls of all the wards had collapsed bringing down the roofs intact on the inmates on whom the debris of the walls had already fallen. At first the men were too few in number to tear off the roofs, so they raised them up for short periods whilst Lieutenant Cowley crawled under them and dragged out survivors from their beds. The survivors were pre-earthquake hospital patients and mostly quite helpless. Lieutenant Cowley lifted many men in his arms regardless of the warning that they were suffering from all manner of diseases. Had it not been for the work of this officer and the excellent example shown by him to his men, very many less men would have been saved alive.
	The Albert Medal was instituted in 1866 and was awarded for the saving of life, originally at sea, but later [1877] extended to include saving life on land. In 1971 the medal was discontinued, and all living recipients were invited to exchange their medals for the George Cross, the second highest award (after the Victoria Cross) and which is made for gallantry "not in the face of the enemy."
	Cowley remained in the Army, reaching the rank of Lieutenant General before he retired in 1962.
	Sir James Currie [KBE 1920 and KCMG 1933]
	When he received the KCMG in the 1933 King's Birthday Honours List, the citation in the London Gazette (issue 33946, page 3803) described Sir James as "Chairman of the Governing Body of the Imperial College of Tropical Agriculture, Trinidad, Member of the Advisory Committee on Education in the Colonies, and Director of the Empire Cotton Growing Association."/td>
	Sir James was found dead in bed while visiting a friend at Cambridge University. The inquest into his death was reported in The Scotsman on 19 March 1937:-
	Fainting in his bedroom, Sir James Currie was slowly gassed, said the Cambridge Coroner, in returning a verdict of "Accidental death" at the inquest held yesterday.
	Sir James died at the Master's Lodge of Corpus Christi College, where he was the guest of Mr and Mrs Will Spens [later Sir William Spens] on Tuesday night, being found dead on Wednesday morning.
	Sir James, a son of the late Rev. James Currie, LL.D., Principal of the Church of Scotland Training College, Edinburgh, was from 1900 to 1914 Principal of the Gordon College, Khartoum.
	Mr. Spens, in evidence, said Sir James went to his bedroom on Tuesday night at 11 o'clock. He was perfectly normal, except that obviously he was very tired after a heavy day, and he said that he was tired. The next morning at 8 o'clock, said Mr Spens, a maid informed him that Sir James was lying unconscious beside the bed in his room. In the bedroom he noticed a strong smell of gas, and, looking down at the gas fire, which was burning, he noticed that a burner point operating a part of the fire not lit was turned on partly. He turned off the tap and opened the window.
	Sir James appeared to have been reading in bed by the state of the pillows and the books beside them. When Sir James went to bed the gas fire was on, and there was no smell of gas.
	Dr Frank Betts Parsons, police surgeon, said when he arrived the ambulance men were applying artificial respiration, and he gave a stimulant, but examination showed Sir James was dead. A blood examination revealed that death was due to coal-gas poisoning.
	Mr John Foster Gaskell, pathologist at Addenbrooke's Hospital said the post-mortem examination showed that sufficient carbon monoxide had been inhaled to cause death. The mitral valve of the heart was very small, and showed symptoms of acute disease. The lungs were congested with blood, a condition common with heart failure. There had also been a recent hemorrhage in the intestines. The actual cause of death was monoxide poisoning, but there was a condition of the heart which would lead to a fainting attack, and that was an accessory factor.
	"I think that Sir James got out of bed to turn out the light and turn off the fire. As he did so it is possible he had a hemorrhage. As he turned off the gas he felt faint, and his head was swimming. He mistook the taps, and turned on the wrong one. He was then able to get to the light switch, but feeling faint, he was unable to get into bed. He fainted and fell on to the floor, and as he lay there he was slowly gassed."
	The Coroner said that was no doubt the proper solution, and he returned a verdict of "Accidental death."
	Sir John Daniel [Kt Bach 1921]
	Obtaining information on Sir John Daniel has proved to be a challenge. I have been able to find only two, very short, articles relating to him, both of which are shown beneath. However, these contain sufficient information to enable his inclusion in these notes.
	Daniel received his knighthood in the 1921 New Year's Honours List. The citation describes him as being "Member of the Cardiff City Council and Education Committee, President of the Cardiff Cymmrodorion [a London-based Welsh learned society] and Chairman of the Glamorganshire Branch of the National Union of Welsh Societies. For public and local services."
	The first article appeared in the New York Times on 2 November 1938:-
	Toronto, Nov. 1 (Canadian Press). - Sir John Daniel, who for several years after coming here from Wales was able to keep his title secret, died today in his home at the age of 68. Surviving are Lady Daniel, a son and a daughter.
	Sir John Daniel arrived in 1926 and, as John Daniel, opened a small baking business. At his death he was president of the brokerage firm of John Daniel and Sons, Limited.
	Born in Carmarthen, he had served as a member of the Cardiff City Council and the education committee, and chairman of the board of Directors of Avana Flour Mills. He had been president of the Union of Welsh Societies.
	The second article appeared in the London Daily Telegraph on 3 November 1938:-
	Toronto, Wednesday - 'Sir John Daniel, a former member of the Cardiff City Council, who died here today, aged 68, had a remarkable career. Born in Carmarthen he was for many years prominent in the business life of Cardiff, being chairman of several companies. He was knighted in 1921.
	Five years later he set up a small bakery business in Toronto. He lived in a flat above the shop, keeping knowledge of his title secret for several years. Eventually he became head of the brokerage firm of Sir John Daniel & Sons.
	He married in 1892, Sarah Ann, daughter of David James, of Aberavon, and had one son and one daughter.
	Sir Henry Lawson de Mel [Kt Bach 1931]
	Sir Henry was a Ceylonese industrialist, lawyer and politician who was knighted in 1931 for his services to the government of Ceylon. He was murdered on one of his large coconut plantations in May 1936. The following report appeared in The Times of India on 9 May 1936:-
	Sir Henry de Mel, one of the largest coconut estate owners in the island, and a prominent figure in the public life of Ceylon, was shot dead outside his estate bungalow at Hettipola, Chilaw district, by, it is alleged, a former conductor whom Sir Henry had dismissed. Another man named Ratnayake who was with Sir Henry was also shot dead.
	It is alleged that Sir Henry de Mel and some estate servants went to the estate bungalow, where the conductor met them brandishing a gun which he fired. A shot passed through Sir Henry's shoulder and he fell. Another shot killed Ratnayake. The assailant then withdrew into the bungalow and for a time held the crowd at bay with his gun. The police were then called.
	Sir Henry de Mel belonged to an old Sinhalese family with the family title of Lexapathie. The Lexapathies held high office under the Sinhalese kings. Sir Henry was 60 years of age and was a former member of the State Council and former Chairman of Low Country Products. He was also the local representative of Tatas [the multinational Indian manufacturer].
	The subsequent inquest into Sir Henry's death was reported in The Straits Times published in Singapore on 23 May 1936.
	A verdict of homicide was recorded by Mr. E.V.R. Samarawickrema, police magistrate of Chilaw yesterday, at the inquest on the death of Sir Henry de Mel.
	Redley Clarence Silva, assistant superintendent of Marandawila Estate, Bowatte, pleaded guilty of Saturday before the Dandagamuwa police magistrate when charged with the murder of Sir Henry and the acting superintendent, Mr. D.C. Ratnayake.
	It was stated that the accused had presented a petition against the watcher of the estate and Sir Henry had come to the estate and decided to discontinue the accused's services after instructing Ratnayake to pay the accused's salary and take charge of the tools.
	The Dandagamuwa magistrate, after recording the evidence of the watcher at the scene visited the Chilaw hospital and at midnight recorded the statement of Carolis, the chauffeur, and Mr. Mendis at his bungalow.
	The Assistant Government Agent. The Superintendent of Police and the Ratemahatmaya of Katugampola Hat Pattu were present at the magisterial inquiry held at the scene.
	Silva stated: "I plead guilty, Mudallhamy has stated the proper facts of the case. Sir Henry refused to make investigations into the allegations made against me. Ratnayake is a big scoundrel, and Sir Henry, listening to him, asked me to clear out of the estate. When I asked for my pay Sir Henry asked Ratnayake what balance I had to get and Ratnayake said he could not say it without referring to the books. I thought that Sir Henry was speaking in jest when he asked me to get out of the estate immediately, but he said he was serious, and Ratnayake told me I would have to clear out of the estate. I told him to clear out, brought the gun and shot him. Then I was going along the road and Sir Henry cried out, 'Catch that rascal.' The crowd came behind me and I reloaded the gun and pointed the gun towards the crowd. The gun went off and Sir Henry was shot."
	Sir Dudley Rawson Stratford de Chair [KCB 1916 and KCMG 1933]
	The following biography of Sir Dudley de Chair appeared in the September 1964 issue of the Australian monthly magazine Parade:-
	On August 6, 1882, while British forces were moving into Egypt to quell the Nationalist rising under Arabi Pasha, the people of Cairo received a temporary boost to their understandably sagging morale. Having boasted that he was prepared to fight the whole world, the pasha exhibited his only prisoner-of-war, a nonchalant British midshipman of 18. To show the pasha's power over the enemy, the young officer was driven about Cairo amid the jeers of by-standers, who were told he was the only son of the British Commander-in-Chief, Sir Beaumont [sic - Beauchamp] Seymour. This, however, was merely the pasha's propaganda. The imperturbable captive was Midshipman Dudley de Chair, who had been taken prisoner while carrying dispatches to a fort in Alexandria. London newspapers reported him "Missing, believed killed," but there was plenty of life left in the youth, who was destined to become senior admiral of the Royal Navy and Governor of New South Wales.
	Born in 1864, Dudley Rawson Stratford de Chair entered the navy at the age of 14, when he joined H.M. Training Ship Britannia as a cadet midshipman. Among his shipmates were the royal brothers, the Duke of Clarence and the future King George V. In 1880 he was posted to H.M.S. Alexandra as a midshipman. Two years later the misguided Arabi Pasha gave him his first chance of active service.
	Arabi [1841‑1911] had had a phenomenal career for a man of peasant stock. Beginning at the bottom in the Egyptian army, he became minister of war before he was 40. Unfortunately he lived before his time, and his cry of "Egypt for the Egyptians" was raised 80 years too soon. Although the fat Khedive was the nominal ruler of Egypt, he was much too occupied with his diverse private entertainments to lose sleep over the job. In any case, Britain and France, as joint controllers of the Suez Canal, wielded the real power. When Arabi Pasha was minister for war began expelling foreigners and setting himself up as an autocrat, the British took immediate action. Ships on the Australian and the Eastern runs were re-routed round the Cape of Good Hope, British troops in India were alerted and the Mediterranean Fleet moved from the Malta base.
	With the safety of the Canal at stake, Britain was backed up by most of the European maritime powers. The United States sent along a ship to watch developments and the German Chancellor Bismarck gave his blessing. Arabi's sole friend was the Sultan of Turkey, a futile potentate who was more liability than asset. Even when the British Fleet, which included half a dozen of the most powerful ironclads afloat, arrived in Alexandria Harbour, the optimistic Arabi did not realise what [he]was up against. Under the impression that his fortifications were strong enough to defy all Europe, he refused to disarm them at the orders of the British admiral.
	The result was a dreadful lesson in the power of naval guns. The 80-ton guns of H.M.S. Inflexible, Temeraire and Alexandra pounded the forts all day, reducing them to rubble. Having observed the destruction, Arabi retreated to Cairo, while the Alexandria mob seized their chance to burn and sack the city. Admiral Seymour landed a naval brigade to restore order, and during this time young de Chair was captured. A few weeks later, he was rescued by a troop of Indian cavalry.
	Ignominiously defeated at the battle of Tel-el-Kebir [13 September 1882], Arabi Pasha spent the next 20 years in exile in Ceylon. Midshipman de Chair, on the other hand, received a medal from the Khedive and after being promoted to lieutenant, went on to study a new naval weapon, the torpedo, and become one of the first torpedo experts in the Royal Navy.
	Thirty two years later de Chair had reached vice-admiral rank and had earned the reputation of being one of the most efficient organisers in the navy. He spent three years as naval attaché to the British Embassy at Washington, served as Assistant Controller of the Navy under Admiral Jellicoe and succeeded Admiral Beatty as Naval Secretary to Winston Churchill, then First Lord of the Admiralty. In June 1914 de Chair was appointed Admiral of the Training Squadron, a post which made him responsible for the training and education of all the navy's younger personnel. De Chair's capacity for organisation made him suitable for this work, but he was fated never to take up his duties. World War I broke out within a few weeks of his appointment.
	As Admiral of the Training Squadron, he had been allotted a collection of obsolete 7000-ton cruisers, most of them more than 20 years old. He had intended to use them occasionally for training purposes, but war now gave these ships a new lease of life. De Chair's venerable flotilla of old-timers was dubbed the 10th Cruiser Squadron and assigned to the blockade of the North Sea, from Iceland to the coast of Norway. Hastily manning his ships with reservists, many of whom had not been afloat for years, de Chair hoisted his flag in the 22-year-old Crescent and got his squadron to sea so quickly that he was on his station two days after the declaration of war.
	His job was to prevent German shipping returning to Germany and to stop the traffic in contraband of war. Also he had to capture all German nationals returning home or going abroad. As the forged passport business was booming, de Chair's difficult assignment required much diplomacy. Many a prominent Teuton, masquerading as a Swedish timber merchant or a traveller for Dutch schnapps was hauled protesting from his bunk in a neutral ship and sent to internment in Britain.
	The admiral's ships were quite unsuitable for the work they were called on to do. Modern in 1890, their guns were museum pieces, while the best ship in the squadron could touch only 12 knots. Yet with this material, de Chair hammered out one of the most powerful weapons the Allies possessed during the first few months of the war. At that time, the seas were filled with craft flying neutral flags and hurrying to neutral ports with cargoes destined for Germany. Every ship had to be stopped and examined. It was arduous work carried out in one of the stormiest seas in the world. The squadron was in continual danger from submarine attack, and if a German battle cruiser had loomed up the blockade would have been over in an hour. The job was so strenuous that within a few months every cruiser in the squadron was ripe for the shipbreaker's yard. De Chair himself complained that his flagship had deteriorated to the point where she could neither fight nor run.
	To replace the veterans, de Chair built up a fleet of 24 fast, well-armed merchantmen, flying his flag on the 18,000-ton Alsatian. These ships proved ideal for his purpose, but to keep them at sea required all the admiral's organisational skill. Coaling was a major problem, as each unit of the fleet burned 600 tons a week. Despite blizzards, icebergs, fogs and enemy attacks, de Chair maintained the blockade for almost two years. Very few ships slipped through his net, and supplies of cotton, rubber, wool, nickel and other contraband ceased to reach Germany. Because the blockaders' work was secret, they received little publicity, and the existence of the great fleet of armed merchantmen remained unknown. When the United States entered the war, de Chair's team of watchdogs became unnecessary. And when the Admiralty reported that no blockade in history had been so effective, it was a personal tribute to Admiral de Chair.
	Knighted by George V, his old time shipmate, Sir Dudley de Chair later went to Washington, where his knowledge was of incalculable value to the United States naval authorities. De Chair finished the war flying his flag on the 3rd Battle Squadron's historic battleship Dreadnought. In 1923, he retired from the navy, and the following year succeeded Sir Walter Davidson as Governor of New South Wales.
	Few state governors have been more popular than the bluff, taciturn admiral. About the only time he lost his equanimity during his vice-regal career was the occasion when de discovered a terrible faux pas. When the governor heard two men mentioning that a mutual acquaintance had recently acquired "a nice little filly" he decided to compliment the turf enthusiast when next he met him. The governor duly paid the man the compliment only to find that "the filly" was his third and newest wife.
	Sir Dudley became the first Australian governor to take to the air. He used planes extensively in visiting the outback to prove, as he put it, that flying was no longer a matter of optimism followed by an obituary. In some political circles, however, Sir Dudley de Chair was regarded as having carried the principles of blockade to extremes when he came up against the Lang Government in 1927. As a move towards abolishing the Legislative Council, the government decided to increase the strength of the Upper House with nominees dedicated to voting it out of existence. When the governor refused to sanction further appointments on the ground that the government had received no mandate for such an action, he found himself the centre of a major political storm. The veteran seadog, however, remained unperturbed, even when his recall was demanded at heated public meetings, and the cry of "Sack de Chair" became a popular slogan.
	When a deputation of ladies stormed Government House determined to give His Excellency a piece of their minds, the wily admiral was ready for them. Before listening to their protests, he asked them to join him at afternoon tea. Charmed and a little overawed, the ladies finally left without having stated their case. Their supporters, who had been waiting to hear the result of the interview, learned only that the governor was a delightful man and a pleasant afternoon had been spent by all. The political crisis eventually solved itself at an election, and Sir Dudley de Chair finished his term of office without further discord.
	In 1930 he returned to England, travelling across the Atlantic from Canada in his old blockade flagship, the Alsatian, now refitted and renamed the Empress of France. The old sailor lived on through another war. He died on 17 August, 1958, at the age of 94, when he was the senior admiral of the Royal Navy and probably the oldest officer of his rank in any service in the world. Dudley de Chair saw remarkable changes in seafaring during his lifetime. When he was born, steam was merely an auxiliary to the wind, the torpedo had yet to be invented, guns were loaded from the muzzle, and the aeroplane and submarine were fiction­writers' dreams.
	Sir (Wilfred) James Denham [Kt Bach 1921]
	One of the names included in the 1921 New Year's Honours List was a Wilfred Denham, described as "Author and writer." According to newspaper notices of Sir James's death six years later, the universal reaction to his inclusion in the 1921 list appears to have been "Who?" since no record of this name could be found in any of the standard books of reference. A typical report of his death appeared in the Manchester Guardian on 4 October 1927:-
	The death occurred yesterday at a nursing home in Hove of Sir James Denham, who became famous as "the mystery knight," because, when in 1921, he figured in the New Year's Honours List, no one was able for some days to establish his identity.
	He was referred to in the Honours List as "William Denham, author and writer," but none of the literary yearbooks included his name. He was successively "identified" as Sir William Denham (in the Honours List), Sir Wilfred Denham (in a London Gazette correction), Sir Gilbert Denham (a newspaper correspondent at Nice) and Sir Gilbart Denham (the "final correction").
	The mystery was finally explained when Sir James stated that he wrote many of his earlier works under the name of James William Gilbart Smith. To the general public his best known work was probably "Wake Up, England!" which in pamphlet form reached a sale of over 350,000 copies. Among his other publications are "My Ladye and Others," "Beauty at a Dinner Party," "The Loves of Vandyk," "The Log o' the Norsemen," "The Byeways of Byron," and "Queen Mary o' Scots."
	Not only did he successfully resist the compiler of reference books, but he was in the habit of recalling from circulation any work of his of which he grew tired. He was a keen follower of hounds, a lover of fishing, and he had cycled over 80,000 miles in twelve countries. He was also an enthusiastic breeder of dogs.
	Sir George Richard Dibbs [KCMG 1892]
	The following biography of Sir George Dibbs appeared in the September 1964 issue of the Australian monthly magazine Parade:-
	A hooting crowd of striking workmen stood outside the office of the Australian Steam Navigation Company in Pyrmont, Sydney, facing the chairman of directors, George Dibbs. Top hat tilted, a cigar in his mouth, he listened contemptuously to boos and curses. When the shouting died Dibbs strolled forward and asked for a match. His cigar had gone out. One match was offered and he casually relit his cigar, turned his back on the crowd and disappeared into the office. This incident took place in December 1878. Throughout the terrible struggles between capital and labour that disfigured the last years of the 19th century, George Dibbs, the man who was supposed to have told the strikers, "I'll make you eat grass yet," was the chief target of working-class hatred. His attitude to the working class was a curious mixture of love and hate.
	He was born at Flagstaff Hill, Sydney, in 1834, the second son of a ship's captain who disappeared at sea soon after. Although the boy came from a good home and received a superior education at Dr. [John Dunmore] Lang's College, he spent much of his childhood with the ragged urchins who played around the Millers Point wharves. But when his schooldays were over the Dibbs family put him into a respectable city office and he was parted from many of his boyhood friends.
	George Dibbs could not stomach clerical work for long. In 1857 he joined the A[ugustus] C[harles] Gregory [KCMG 1903] relief expedition which had been organised by the NSW Government to search for the missing explorer [Ludwig] Leichhardt. However the ship in which he was travelling as super-cargo carried him on to Singapore, where he was hired by a businessman to supervise a cargo back to Australia. As a result of that experience and being interested in the possibilities of trade with the East, Dibbs and his brother John set up an import-export business in Newcastle. It flourished to such an extent that the brothers were able to acquire their own ships.
	In 1865 the firm decided to open up trade with South America by sending a cargo of coal. But their vessel arrived off Valparaiso to find the South American-Spanish war in full blast. A Spanish fleet was blockading the Chilean port while warships from other European nations looked on. It was arranged that the Australians should be given one week's grace and allowed to sail into the port, where Dibbs could discuss matters with the British consul. But Dibbs had no intention of wasting time with the consul. By the end of the week he had sold nearly all his cargo of coal to the Spanish, the Chileans and the watching European fleet. Then he sailed south to Conception and ran the blockade a second time, slipping through the Spanish fleet at dead of night in a small boat. Again he made some valuable business contacts and then returned quietly to his ship.
	By now Dibbs had become a formidable figure in Newcastle and Sydney. The big-boned youth had grown into a huge man with a large impressive head and massive shoulders. As a business opponent he was somebody to be feared. Headstrong and impulsive, he made many enemies. After losing a lawsuit he refused to pay heavy legal costs and spent a year in the debtors' section of Darlinghurst Gaol. But before he was committed he had won good publicity for his side of the case. [The case involved Dibbs's slandering a lawyer who had committed adultery with Dibbs's sister-in-law.] During his year in Darlinghurst 3500 people visited him in his comfortable cell. Old ladies arrived regularly with fruit and flowers. He spent most of his time carving and turning pieces of wood as gifts for his friends. Afterwards, as a Minister of the Crown, he promoted his favourite warder to be governor of the gaol.
	In 1874 Dibbs entered Parliament as member for the radical waterside constituency of West Sydney. Though he was now a rich man, the working class voters cheered his violent republicanism and his championing of the underdog. But by 1877 he and his working class constituents were on opposite sides in the great battle for workers' rights and nobody treated seamen and wharf labourers with greater severity than he. In 1878, a year after losing his seat in Parliament, Dibbs, as head of the ASN company, became chiefly responsible for introducing Chinese seamen into Australian ships and starting the great seamen's strike. Yet even while his old seafaring supporters hated and cursed him, many of the strikers still admired his courage and toughness. They were qualities that were held in high regard in the taverns of Millers Point and Darling Harbour and many knew where Dibbs had learnt them. Ultimately, under pressure from his fellow directors, Dibbs had to back down and concede many of the seamen's demands. By now he was a bitter, uncompromising foe of the trade union movement.
	In 1882 he was re-elected to Parliament for the upper-class constituency of St. Leonards. Even his own party was wary of him, though it acknowledged his dominating personality. On October 7, 1885, he became Premier [and Treasurer] of NSW. Two months later his colleagues changed their minds and put someone else [Sir John Robertson] in his place. However Dibbs continued as Treasurer and the real leader of the party. At the time when the great boom period of the early 1880s had just burst it was an unpopular portfolio to hold. In December 1885 he rose in the House to deliver a statement of the colony's position. It was far better than any member had dared to expect. The deficit was surprisingly light. Only when the following year's deficit reached staggering proportions did suspicions arise about Dibb's figures. It looked as though the Treasury had made a gross blunder.
	On November 13, 1886, the Treasurer's leading financial adviser, James Thomson, made a startling charge in a letter to the Sydney Daily Telegraph. He said he had deliberately falsified the colony's accounts at the instigation of the Treasurer himself. According to Thomson, as soon as Dibbs heard of the sorry state of the colony's finances he had ordered him to convert a large deficit into a surplus. "Otherwise," said Dibbs, "it will damn the government." Thomson said he and Dibbs had pored over the accounts, reducing the various items of expenditure for 1885 and then gradually increasing the anticipated revenues for 1886. Income from railways, tramways and land sales, Thomson added, was overestimated until an acceptable figure was reached.
	Dibbs at once rushed into print with an angry denial. Finally in August 1888 he sued the Telegraph for £25,000. Facetiously the Telegraph offered a settlement of two pounds. For nine days the most brilliant barristers in Australia, ranged on opposite sides of the court, raked over the events of that momentous night nearly three years before when Dibbs and Thomson had sat preparing the accounts. Next day the jury brought in its verdict. Dibbs was awarded £100.
	In January 1889 he became Premier again, first for seven weeks, then finally [October 1891] for [nearly] three years. By now he was the leader of a strong well-organised party of squatters, manufacturers and small farmers. Throughout the outback he was hailed as the man who would beat the city merchants and avert the threat of a tax on land or income by increasing customs duties instead. At an anxious time when the colony was faced by a financial crisis, Dibbs was just the man for the hour.
	In February 1892 hundreds of anxious depositors gathered outside the NSW Savings Bank, which was rumoured to be on the verge of collapse. The Premier acted in typically forthright style. Shouldering his way through the crowd, he forced a path to the entrance of the bank and confronted a group of white-faced officials in the boardroom. Then he scrawled a proclamation that the government would guarantee every penny of the depositors' money. "Here, stick this up outside," he demanded gruffly. The crisis was averted.
	Later that year Dibbs visited England by way of the US and received a tremendous welcome. Society loved his rough colonial way. The man who had once urged the voters of West Sydney to throw off the yoke of British imperialist exploitation knelt before Queen Victoria and rose as Sir George Dibbs. His republicanism had vanished.
	He returned to Australia full of honours, but not even the new knight could steer NSW safely through the economic storms that were about to break. When long lines of strikers began picketing the BHP Company's mines in Broken Hill, hundreds of non-unionists were sent to the mining centre to break the strike. The arrest and imprisonment of the strike leaders caused howls in protest. But Dibbs was inexorable. On no account, he shouted at his critics, would he agree to the sentences being reduced.
	Sir George Dibbs retired from politics soon afterwards. He died at Hunters Hill in 1904.
