oners were chained to heavy logs of trees.

1802. G.Barrington, `History of New South Wales,' p. 184:

"The governor resolved on building a large log prison both at
Sydney and Paramatta, and `as the affair cried haste,' a
quantity of logs were ordered to be sent in by the various
settlers, officers and others."

[p. 196]: "The inhabitants of Sydney were assessed to supply
thatch for the new gaol, and the building was enclosed with
a strong high fence. It was 80 feet long, the sides and ends
were of strong logs, a double row of which formed each
partition. The prison was divided into 22 cells. The floor

1851. Letter from Mrs. Perry, given in Canon Goodman's
`Church of Victoria during Episcopate of Bishop Perry,' p. 164:

"One [sentry] at the lock-up, a regular American log-hut."

1888. Rolf Boldrewood, `Robbery under Arms,' p. 193:

"Let's put him in the Logs . . . The lock-up, like most

1888. Rolf Boldrewood, `A Sydneyside Saxon,' p. 111:

"`He'll land himself in the logs about that same calf racket
if he doesn't lookout, some day.' `Logs!' I says. `There
don't seem to be many about this part. The trees are all
too small.'"

"Lollies that the children like."

1874. Garnet Walch, `Head over Heels,' p. 18:

"Common children fancy lollies,
Eat them 'gainst their parents' wills."

1882. A. J. Boyd, `Old Colonials,' p. 16:

"I thankfully expended the one in bile-producing cakes
and lollies."

1893. `Evening Standard' (Melbourne), Oct. 18, p. 6, col. 2:

"Mr. Patterson (musing over last Saturday's experiences):
You're going to raise the price of lollies. I'm a great buyer
