In this speech, he advocated the Federation of the six Australian colonies. The man who became Australia's first Prime Minister, Edmund Barton, was a strong advocate of the federation of the Australian colonies, and he led the federal movement following the death of Sir Henry Parkes. In 1897 he was one of the NSW delegates to the Constitutional Convention which developed a constitution for the proposed federation. Patriotism was also reinforced through the work of writers such as Henry Lawson and, in particular, Banjo Paterson. On 22 January 1899, leaders of the six Australian colonies met in Melbourne to discuss the federation bill.
