Indenture between Elizabeth Denn and John Burton, and John Ash

  • AU ANUA 252
  • Series
  • 1734

This original indenture dated 22 July 1734 is handwritten on a page preprinted with the words ‘This Indenture’. It is a lease for land at Childerditch in Essex owned by Elizabeth Denn and John Burton and rented to John Ash for a total of ten shillings with a year’s rent of one peppercorn. It is framed between two sheets of glass and there are windows in the backing to allow annotations on the verso of the document to be read. A transcription has been made of the text, preserving original spelling with expansion of common abbreviations. Its provenance in relation to the University is yet to be fully established, though it is likely to have been donated prior to 1960 as there is a pencil annotation on the backing ‘18/6 CUC’ which appears to refer to the Canberra University College. It hung in the Law Librarian’s office for many years prior to transfer to the Archives.

Sarah Walls, interviews with Jean-Marie Tjibaou

  • AU ANUA 271
  • Series
  • 1988-1989, 2007

Sarah Walls, a journalist who covered New Caledonia for the Sydney Morning Herald and The Age, conducted two interviews with Kanak independence leader Jean-Marie Tjibaou in the year before his assassination in 1989. Walls interviewed Tjibaou soon after the signing in June 1988 of the Matignon Accord, the peace plan for New Caledonia following the four-year conflict over independence. These interviews provide insights into Tjibaous's personal views on the peace plan, his hopes for the future of the Kanak people and his ideas relating to multiracial society 'one founded on recognition of Kanak sovereignty, and extending a welcome to those who came later'.
