Reference problem

edit

I can't figure out where the block quotation in the "Consecration" subsection came from. The article text and the reference link point to the Hobart Mercury of 6 April 1893, but the consecration appears to have actually taken place on 8 April, so I don't see how an article could have appeared two days previously. This document says that the Mercury reported on the consecration on 10 April, but the quotation given there doesn't match the one in this article. I've hastily glanced at the Trove digitized copies of the Mercury for 6, 8, and 10 April and haven't spotted any reference to the consecration.

I think someone needs to confirm the source of the quotation and emend the text and ref accordingly. Deor (talk) 05:29, 14 March 2020 (UTC)Reply
