1 Little Dick Mona Noel-Paton , 1878 single work short story
— Appears in: The Australian Journal , July vol. 13 no. 158 1878; (p. 567-571)
Set in London, a poor little match-boy, Dick, is helped by a rich but lonely young gentleman who he inspires to study to be a doctor at Cambridge. Dick's father dies of consumption then Dick himself sickens, leaving his baby brother to support the family by sweeping crossings - the secret of their origins to be kept til his dying day. Sentiment and pathos. (PB).
