PART SEVEN – Concluding Thoughts
I realised when writing this story that historical records may
not grasp the full story. For sure, this was a story I wanted to tell –
simply because it revealed eternal truths.
It is a sort of Shakespearean tragedy – as the judge hinted -
in attempting to explain the son’s fall from grace; that a
talented engineer, was born into a family whose father was a
world-famous, talented engineer. That must have been hard –
walking in daddy’s shoes.
We don’t know what the relationship between father and
son was, but we do know he was less-favoured in daddy’s will.
Was George Julius Junior a black sheep? Maybe… Probably…
In any case, I would like to present a positive side to
George Yelverton Julius in a separate article.
This will be about his achievements at Victa in the 1950s.
That story should be told too!
There are some big surprises there.
