I haven't read this for years so I must load it on my Kobo. My great great grandmother actually had a bushranger staying at her hotel - apparently he must have been a hit with her because when the police came looking for him next day she sent them off in the wrong direction! Her excuse was that he acted like a gentleman and the police were rude to her! I cant remember the name,also a "Captain" something or the other, but they all had names like that!
