Details: Newcastle had two links with the ill-fated Burke and Wills expedition. One was Captain John Paton, who died in Newcastle on Nov. 12, 1895. He was father of the late General Paton and Mr. Alex Paton, now living in retirement. For the last 15 years of his life he was Berthing Master of the port and he had commanded vessels sailing in and out of New castle for many years. When the news reached Melbourne that Burke and Wills were lost, seven search parties were formed. One of them was organised in Brisbane to go to the Gulf of Carpentaria and Captain Paton s brig, the Firefly, was chartered to take the expedition, led by William Lans borough. The vessel left Brisbane on Aug. 24, 1861. The Firefly went ashore on one of the Sir Charles Hardys Islands on the way, but was refloated and the party safely reached the mouth of the Albert River in the Gulf of Carpentaria. The party got on to the tracks of the lost explorers and pushed on in land and the Firefly returned. This expedition discovered some fine pastoral country which led to its occupation by settlers. The other link was Dr. Robert Irwin, M.D., who I was the son of Mr. William Irwin of Maitland. He had begun practice in Newcastle when he volunteered to join a land expedition, and on his return to New castle he was given a Press mention, accompanied by the hope that he would give the benefit of his experience to the public. It was not to be. After a visit to Sydney, Dr. Irwin returned home with pneumonia and died on May 1. 1863 at the early age of 30.
