"Some persons unknown have been doing a bit of moving on their own initiative up at Ballarat " (said Colin Wills, in 'Australian News Letter'). " A statue of \V. M. Hughes vanished a fortnight ago from Prime Minister's Avenue in the Ballarat Botanic Gardens. On Thursday it was found in the grounds of a convalescent depot, undamaged, but an a gum tree. At the same time, and in the same place, the searchers discovered a bronze of Andrew Fisher, which had been missing much longer.''
