Details: Appeared before me E.D. Day Mr. Charles Eyles who deposed - I am superintendent of Mr. Robert Crawfords stock at this station and have commonly four or five assigned servants under my charge. On the seventh of this month I went out on the run with one of the stock keepers named James Dunn (per St. Vincent 1837) to look after the cattle. Shortly after I went out I found that some of the cattle had been speared by the blacks. I found three wounded. In less than a quarter of an hour after on passing through a thick scrub I came upon a party of blacks five in number engaged in the act of cutting up a young bullock of Mr. Crawfords. I rode towards them with intention of taking them into custody. One of them immediately started up and threw a boomerang at me and instantly afterwards he threw a spear at me on seeing this I put my horse to his speed and so avoided both weapons. Directly after this they threw another boomerang which I also escaped from by putting my horse to speed again. The black then began to take up waddies which he threw at me and hit me repeatedly. At that time Dunn came up when the black took up a very large waddy and threw it at Dunns head. Dunn avoided the blow by stooping. Seeing there was no chance of his desisting from his attack and on probability of taking him alive I fired at the black with my musket and hit him on the breast. He ran about thrity yards and fell and soon after died of the wound. The other blacks went off in different directions and were followed by Dunn for some time. The next day I went out again with Dunn and another stockman Smith and we were attacked at the same place by thirty or forty blacks. Fortunatley we were able to get away without injury, the great number of boomerangs they threw at us missed. We reached out huts only time enough to prevent a party of the blacks from taking possession of it. From this attack I considered both life and property very unsafe at this station. When this station was first established the blacks were kindly treated here for some months and I have never allowed any person on the establishment to act unfairly towards them. I know they have not received any cause to act as they have done at this station
