Shiner Slattery

John Alexander Lee was born in Dunedin, the Edinburgh of the South Pacific, in 1891, of Scots Romany parents. At fourteen, being caught with a gang stealing sacks, he was sent to an industrial school. He ran away, was captured and flogged, then escaped again, taking up a roving life working on back country farms, in flax and threshing mills and even in pubs. He helped erect miles of fencing on virgin land and drained many acres of swamp - always in the outback for fear of the police. Although he never met Shiner Slattery he knows from personal experience what the country and the people were like during the latter half of Shiner's roving days. . .
