Excerpt from The South Sea Islanders and the Queensland Labour Trade: A Record of Voyages and Experiences in the Western Pacific, From 1875 to 1891 Captain Wawn was engaged in recruiting such labourers, from 1875, when they were first introduced, down to I89I, when the Queensland Government legislated against the importation of Kanakas into the Colony, and their employment there.
