Lieut.-Col. Holman James
Colonel Holman James is one of the most accomplished exponents of the Australian stock-whip in the world. As is the lasso to the American cowboy, the hunting horn to the English foxhunter, and the sjambok to the South African, so is the stock-whip to the Australian rancher. Colonel James has given exhibitions with the stock-whip for many years -indeed, under the name of Fred Lindsay , with a horse, stock-whip, and false beard, he delighted audiences at the London Coliseum before the first Great War.

In this instalment Mr. Hassock's show in Dunberry does come off, and then (because of the police and a small matter of licences for entertaining) it comes off before the end. Nevertheless the townspeople are with the troupe. ' I am warning you ' cried Tom Lees , ' and the bosses and snobs that sent you here. I am warning you all. Let the people sing ! ' ' Hurrah ' shouted Candover, ' Let the people sing', and they do in this first uproarious climax of Priestley's modern fairy tale.
