Murray

Life Of Late Sir Hubert

AN authoritative, factual and very in teresting account of the life of the late Sir Hubert Murray, Lieutenant- Governor of Papua, was given to the Royal Australian Historical Society on April 27 by Mr. Lewis Lett.

During many years, Mr. Lett was a close personal friend of Sir Hubert, and he undertook many commissions for the Administrator. No one is better qualified to tell the story of the career of that distinguished man. It is time, as a mat ter of fact, that a book was written on the subject, because the Murray era in Papua was unique, and adds much to administration; and we understand that Mr. Lett is now engaged upon this work.
