No. 35/2...Sir, I have the honor to state for the information of His Excellency the Governor that Constable Moses Carroll, Henry Anderson, George Mason and Adam Rainey were gathered at Duralong near Wyong for the purpose of apprehending some of the black natives concerned in the late robberies, who were continually lurking about the brushes near the hut and occasionally calling and asking for milk and on Friday the 2nd Inst. Six black natives entered the hut, five of whom were entered in the Gazette. Immediately after they entered the hut the door was closed and the four white men attempted to secure them, but the blacks being so resolute and seizing hold of their fire arms they were obliged in self-defence to fire at Jack Jones who is a very powerful man, and wounded him severely in the neck before any of them would surrender. During the scuffle three of them made their escape through a small hole that was cut in the slabs and those named in the margin (Jack Jones, Nimbo and Jago) were apprehended and conveyed safe to the lockup at this place and given over by Carroll and his party on the 4th inst. and made their escape the same day under the following circumstances. (Jack Jones has since been taken and forwarded to Sydney gaol). Constable William Smith who had charge of the lock up opened the door on the afternoon of the 4th inst. to give the blacks some water and immediately he had drawn the bolt they pushed the door suddenly open against him. Nimbo and Jago who were handcuffed together seized hold of the constable with their leisure hands while the third (Jack Jones) who was sitting on the floor and was so severely wounded in his neck by the party who took him, was considered as unable to move but as soon as one of the blacks spoke to him in his own language he struck the constable a blow which nearly stunned him, the other two then dragged him from the lockup tore off his jacket and kept fast hold of him shaking him and occasionally striking him with the handcuffs that were fastened to their hands and after about twenty minutes struggling with the blacks and as possibility of forcing them back to the lockup the constable with much difficulty disengaged himself during this time Jack Jones had made his escape and before Smith could reach his fire arms the other two made their escape also. The other Constable was at this time on board a vessel in charge of three other blacks for Sydney gaol. Constable Smith should in my opinion have used more precaution by handcuffing the three blacks together, knowing what a set he had to deal with ( as the leg irons were in use on the blacks on board the vessel) as they are very determined and require more caution to be looked after than the white prisoners. Constable Carroll and his party after risking their lives in apprehending the three blacks are entitled to the reward offered for their apprehension and I beg leave to be informed in what manner those are to be rewarded who apprehended the blacks thus escaped.

Native lad about 17. Murdered by natives at the back of Mr. Youngs Queens Arms Inn. Body remained in the yard at the Inn for two days before being buried...........MURDER OF A NATIVE BLACK BY ABORIGINALS.-On Thursday (Christmas Day) an in-quest was held before Mr. Parker, at the Rose Inn, West Maitland, on the body of Jackey, a native black lad, about seventeen years old. It appeared from the evidence that Jackey had been for years in the service of Mr. Fitsimmons, of Gora, Castlereagh River, and that he had just come down the country with Mr. Fitsimmons s drays. On Wednesday Jackey received from Mr. Fitsimmons a shilling to buy some food, and sixpence from another person to buy drink ; late that evening Jackey was seen by this latter person, Patrick Rourke, then stopping at Mr. Young s inn, the Queens Arms, West Maitland, to enter Mr Young s yard in company with four other aboriginals (of the Maitland or Sugarloaf tribes) ; they appeared all more or less in liquor, and Rourke saw them subsequently drinking something out of a quart bottle they brought there with them; at a later hour, between ten and eleven o clock, Mr. Young being in his yard saw Murphy, a Maitland black, leaving the yard ; Mr. Young was aware there had been a number of blacks about his yard that afternoon and evening, but as the blacks make a practice of camping at the back of the yard he took no particular notice of them; Mr. Young was under the impression that all the blacks had left his yard about eight o clock. That evening being Christmas Eve, Mr. Young was up till about one o clock, his back windows being open to let in the breeze ;Stephen Balcombe, the night watchman, was about the street, and in and out of Mr. Young s yard, on his beat, all night ; and chief constable Wood, with some policemen, were about the streets till near two o clock. None of these parties heard a noise of any kind from Mr. Young s yard during the night, yet next morning early Jackey was found lying dead near the lower fence, having been killed by two heavy blows on the head from a waddy ; a bondi, or club, was seen near him, with marks of blood on it. As soon as the alarm was given, the police were informed, and the six following aboriginals were apprehended: Murphy, Tommy Potts, Martin, and King John, of the Maitland tribe; Jemmy and Richard Wiseman, of the Sugarloaf tribe. Some blood was seen on the clothes or skin of some of them, but nothing further was elicited to bring home the deed to either. The jury returned a verdict of wilful murder against some aboriginals unknown. We were sorry to learn, last evening, that Jackeys body was still lying unburied at the back of Mr. Youngs yard.
