Dawn, that does make a little sense. He was working at "Summer Hill until today 8/11/1899", the official admission date.
Likewise Stonechat, it could be "working at Sydney last Christmas, from there Balmain"
As I indicated this entry could be from 3 seperate admissions, so little bit of informationn just added each time.
I wish to thank all those who contributed, both enhancing and deciphering. I will "complete" this topic now, as I think I've got the general gist of the Admission notes, though without knowing the exact wording.
Regards
Les
