Just a general clean up to make it flow better and added a new citation in relation to W Roth (the Queenslander article of 1895)

Billenben3/24/2024, 10:21:55 PM

changed an incorrect 1854 to 1855 and included a "in" in a sentence so the grammar is right. The press was for sale August 1855 , not 54. A typo on my part.
