Notes

  • Epigraph: I have always contended that obedience even to an erring conscience was the way to gain light, and that it mattered not where a man began so that he began on what came to hand, and in faith ; and that anything might become a divine method of truth ; that to the pure all things are pure, and have a self-correcting virtue and power of germinating. Newman's Apologia, p. 333
  • Epigraph: He faced the spectres of the mind,/And laid them./At last he beat his music out. Tennyson's In Memoriam.
  • The character, Captain Travers is based on the explorer, W. H. Hovell, and Mary is based on Mary Margaret Woolley (nee Turner), wife of Professor John Woolley, (q.v.).
