LONELY GOATHERD. Serving the Lights (Walkabout, August) brought back memories of boyhood years spent at several “outside” lighthouses. Memories of scrambling ashore from a workboat, removing the water pipes between the roof and the fresh water tanks when gales threw spray from the ocean over the house tops, rounding up the milking goats, and being in bed with whooping cough when the nearest doctor was miles away across the turbulent ocean, have tumbled again through my mind. Before Cape York, the lighthouse tender about which the article tells, there was the Lady Loch, later used as a barge on the Brisbane River. Before Lady Loch, there was the Despatch, which was later wrecked at the mouth of Lakes Entrance in Gippsland, Victoria. F. W. STEVENS, Glen Iris, Vic.

Benson Thesis
F. W. STEVENS: F. W. Stevens was appointed as Chief Engineer at 4QG in 1925. His interest in wireless began in 1901, when he was three years old. He recalled an incident when the Duke of York (later King George V) visited Australia. Stevens lived at the Point Lonsdale Lighthouse, Port Phillip Heads. Wishing to welcome the visitors in a novel way, "a small set of apparatus was erected at the Signal Station at Point Lonsdale ... and an aerial was swung from the flag pole ... it was not until the steamer's smoke was dimly visible in the distance that communication was established between ship and shore." How influential this early experience really proved is a matter for conjecture. Stevens commenced his career with the PMG's Department in Melbourne prior to the commencement of World War I. During the war he was unable to enlist, but since he had studied wireless, the Naval. ..
