+If you want to read about a great 2,000 mile walk by a great citizen, the
+brightest star that ever shone through the murky mediocrity of Canberra -
+Read the life of King O'Malley.
-the light chap for 2 years, and coaxed him back to the health to do this walk AND - he had both feet and hands in the grave. And the charge - NIXIE. Tell this to your posh friends in Macquarie Street.
+It hath also a tale of another great citizen cof this country - one of the real owners, and in the best sense ~ aristocrats of this country. This dark chap nursed the light chap for 2 years, and coaxed him back to the health to do this walk AND - he had both feet and hands in the grave. And the charge - NIXIE. Tell this to your posh friends in Macquarie Street.
 It is a great and moving story with four foundation stones to remind us - Comm. Bank - East West Railway. Canberra - Aust. House in London, and in not one any great building or monument or tiny suburban street is the name of O'Malley to be found.

 On the way we tried to pick out the route of our morning's walk and it now seems pretty clear that we had followed up the old road built by the Commonwealth Oil Corporation in 1906. This road (also known as the Old Coach Road) "followed the ridge to a point about 20 miles from Newnes Junction, whence it descended to the valley by a natural pass, crossed the future railway location at the 26 1/2 mile signpost and forded the Wolgan River to join the Wolgan Gap road at a point a few miles above the township". It seems likely that this road was reopened when the pipeline from Glen Davis to Newnes Junction was put in during the war...
