    Was it the Anniversary Day Regatta on 26 January? The Intercolonial 22-Footer Challenge Race " ... The 22 ft. race proved an easy win for Effie, N. Johnston still in charge, with Plover and Keriki filling second and third places respectively. The fourth place in this race also went to a Queenslander, the Stanley. ...

    beachcomber australia Yikes of course! I still had my mind on the Intercolonial Sailing Carnival and the postponed 22-footer race. It seems like the Anniversary regatta was the perfect rematch, & the QLD boats stuck around for it.

    Parke was born in 1857 at Clogher House[2] in Kilmore, County Roscommon, Ireland, and was brought up in Carrick-on-Shannon, County Leitrim. He graduated from the College of Surgeons in Dublin and was appointed to a post in Ballybay, County Monaghan. In 1881 he joined the British Army and served in Egypt[1] as a surgeon. Parke fought to Khartoum in relief of General Gordon in 1885 en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Heazle_Parke
  • DannyM8 said:
    Parke campaigned with Henry Morton Stanley on the Emin Pasha Relief Expedition. This expedition lasted three years and many were saved from death by Parke's courage and medical skills. He was known as the ' man who had saved Stanley'.[3] He thus became the first Irishman to cross the African continent. During the expedition Parke bought a pygmy girl. They travelled together for over a year and she nursed him through malaria. In the end he was forced to leave her behind because her eyes could not adapt to sunlight after the darkness of the forest. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thomas_Heazle_Parke
