The Dictionary of Australasian Biography/Windsor, Arthur Lloyd
Windsor, Arthur Lloyd, editor of the Melbourne Age, was born in Barbadoes and educated at Ottery St. Mary. Returning to his native place, he was for some time connected with Codrington College, and then went to Montreal, in Canada, subsequently going to England and acting as an army "coach." Having contributed articles to the leading reviews, he republished them in collected form under the title of "Characteristics of Men, Manners, and Books" (Smith, Elder & Co.). Mr. Windsor ultimately accepted an appointment as editor of the Melbourne Argus, and went out to Victoria to assume the duties of the post, which he did not long retain, resigning owing to a difference of opinion with the proprietors as to the policy of the paper. Mr. Windsor then went to reside at Castlemaine, in Victoria, and was for several years editor of the Mount Alexander Mail. For the past twenty years he has been editor of the Melbourne Age, which owes much of its success to his brilliant contributions to its leading columns.
