 ==Biography==
-Born [[Hedley Charles Parks]] in England (?), he became a band conductor in the Indian Army Reserve of Officers in the early 20th century (1917-1921), being promoted from Lieutenant to Captain on 20th June, 1917. It appears he may have been posted to South Africa after that, since his playwriting is considered as products of South Africa by Gosher.
+Little can be found of the author, though he was probably the person born as [[Hedley Charles Parks]] in England (?), who became a band conductor in the Indian Army Reserve of Officers in the early 20th century (1917-1921), being promoted from Lieutenant to Captain on 20th June, 1917. It appears he may have been posted to South Africa after that, since his playwriting is considered as products of South Africa by Gosher.
