The first version appeared serially in\ Our Commonwealth\ (Adelaide, SA, Australia), a newspaper edited by Singer to publicize land nationalization and the single tax, in 1887 and 1888, but the most complete holdings are missing two issues in the middle of the serial. The first part of the series is entitled \"When I Was Governor of This Country\" and appeared in 2.2 (December 1887): 428-29. A later part appeared as \"When I Was Governor of South Australia\" in 2.5 (March 1888): 452. This part refers to a previous part and indicates that it is to be continued, but the newspaper appears to have ended with that issue. Rpt. with a \"Preface\" by William Lloyd Garrison.
