2 1 y separately published work icon The Critic in Church, or, Melbourne Preachers and Preaching Church-Goer , 1871 selected work prose
— Appears in: The Weekly Times 1871;

Consists of 13 articles which were originally presented in serial form in the colonial Melbourne magazine The Weekly Times during 1871. Each article describes a church service and comments on the minister's oratory skills and the attentiveness of the congregation. This work is a valuable contribution to Australian History, 'as its social sketches take the reader inside a cross-section of Melbourne's Anglican, Catholic and non-conformist churches, and a Jewish Synagogue'....'the comments of the journalist reflect the habits and manners of that society which enables us to make a pertinent reconstruction of colonial times.'
