​Professor John Hull's mother wrote a fascinating account of her experience as a newly qualified teacher in the Australian outback,  for the benefit of her family, in the 1960's.
​
It records how the young Madge Hutley spent two years in the 1920's
living and teaching in primitive conditions in a logging settlement.
​
Please read the attached documents.


A further version of the story is available in a book by Jack Hull (who became Madge Hutley's husband) -
"Yarns of Cowra Jack" - publisher Joint Board of Christian Education Aust & New Zealand .
