"This conversation took place on the Westland gold-field in thh spacious days of the gold-rush. The two brothers Hitching had caught the gold-fever, and had forsaken their ordinary avocation in Christchurch to try their luck on the newly discovered field. They were among the first arrivals, and they lost no time in beginning work. They had invested most of their savings on a likely looking claim on the beach from which place diggers were then winning small fortunes from the golden sand." - from the story "An Incident of the Gold-Mining Days in New Zealand," page 48.
