| Narrative | The massacre was carried out by 12 native police and 20 stockmen led by Frederick Walker as revenge for deaths of stockmen in the region. WB Tooth, who participated in and witnessed the event said that: ‘The blacks were so completely put down on that occasion and terrified of the power of the Police, that they never committed any more depredations near there’ (Tooth cited in Skinner, 1975, p 30). |
