Not sure, but I believe that Alfred Stephens might also have written a verse in the debate. Alpheus (talk) 09:41, 26 January 2008 (UTC)Reply


A check of Alfred Stephens on the Austlit site shows he published no poetry in THE BULLETIN between 1890 and 1894. The Bulletin Debate occurred in 1892 when Stephens was not in Australia. I can't find any poems by Stephens, published in THE BULLETIN, that allude to the debate. Perry Middlemiss (talk) 23:42, 17 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

I've removed a citation from the article.[1] It seems to rely on private papers, which are by their nature unpublished, and so wouldn't qualify as reliable sources . Meticulo (talk) 10:55, 3 March 2019 (UTC)Reply

(mentioned in Banjo Paterson: Poet by Accident, Colin Roderick, 1993, page 76) can be made with reference to private Cripps Clark family papers owned by a great granddaughter of Herbert Humphrey Cripps Clark. Among diaries, other writings (and submission letters & copies that include an undated carbon copy of the poem -with slight differences to published versions- and the author credited as H.H.C.C.) and remittance clippings confirm that Herbert Humphrey submitted under names including "Cripps Clark", "Two Seas", "H.H.C.C" as well as "H.H.C" in one of the earliest submissions. A letter from his good friend on 18 January 1889 says "I did a few verses of a parody or reply from "Clancy of the Overflow" see Xmas Bulletin .... You write a reply to "Clancy of the Overflow". Herbert Humphrey was a merchant seaman, prospector, selector-cockie, unsuccessful would-be MLA (Free Trade Ind) and part-time freelance journalist published in many regional and country newspapers papers. His stories and poems also appeared in the Lone Hand (illustrated by friend Norman Lindsay), the Bulletin, the Town and Country and several London papers.
