                "description": "In the autumn of 1841, three shepherds on Frederick Eldershaw's outstation on the north eastern edge of New England were brutally murdered and 2000 sheep taken by Baanbay warriors (Eldershaw, 1854, p 63). In reprisal Eldershaw organised a 'pursuing party' of ten men (including Eldershaw, three neighbours and six stockmen), 'well mounted and accoutred' and set off with ten days provisions for the south branch of the Clarence River. According to Eldershaw the party was ambushed by fire on at least one occasion, and after several days, they found the Baanbay camp and the sheep towards evening and split their party in two. One group remained hidden near the camp, and the other, with Eldershaw in the lead, moved to a higher ground above the camp of about 200 Baanbay. When they heard a shot fired below, in reprisal for Baanbay warriors killing one of the men, the group above immediately discharged the 'contents of ten barrels' into the camp below. A second volley from below and a third from above 'dealt frightful havoc in their ranks' and 'according to Eldershaw 'some [of the Baanbay] actually dashed themselves in frantic violence to the depths beneath, in utter heedlessness of life' (Eldershaw 1854, p 73). 'Shot after shot, with curses wild and deep the excited fellows launched at their hated foes - their butchered comrades' blood was that night fearfully avenged' (Eldershaw, 1854, p 73).\n<br>\nIt is estimated that at least 30 Baanbay people were shot. In his book Eldershaw justified the massacre on the grounds that it instilled in the local Aboriginal people 'a mysterious and superstitious fear of the stupendous power of the white man', caused them to become 'harmless, tractable and <i>subdued</i>' and thus the  'barbarous and inhuman <i>secret</i> murders [of colonists], by poison or by some violent remorseless treachery, of which in preceding times I had so frequently heard and read, were now happily abolished' (Eldershaw 1854, p 74). Eldershaw's account is reproduced in Blomfield 1981, pp 85-91 and Elder 2003, pp 105-117.",

They followed Baanbay people to Paddys Land where they surrounded them 'and shot down as many as they could' (<i>Uralla Times and District Advocate</i>, 19 April 19, 1923, p 1). Clogher had a cavalry sword and was an excellent shot with pistols (<i>Daily Examiner</i>, October 28, 1942, p 1). There are various spellings of the name of the constable in the sources. Some use 'Clogher' while others use 'Clogger'. The name 'Constable Michael Cloggan' (<i>Uralla Times and District Advocate</i>, 19 April 19, 1923, p 1) appears to be a confusion of 'Clogher' with the name of the 'Coghlan' family in the area, and also the author of some of the anecdotes (<i>Don Dorrigo Gazette and Guy Fawkes Advocate</i>, 27/10/1939).",

The unfortunate sufferers were Mary\nMason, and her two children, of the respective\nages of 3 and 18 months, and John Meldrum ...\nOn the information being received,\nthe chief constable proceeded to the scene, but\ncould not succeed in capturing any of the scoundrels;\nin fact, the police force in this district is so miserably deficient in numbers, that life is not safe even\nin the vicinity of the town from these savages. We\ntrust that the Inspector-General of Police will see\nthe necessity of immediately supplying the deficiency: otherwise it is likely that the people will\neither leave their various employments in the bush,\nor take the law into their own hands'\n(<i>The Goulburn Herald and County of Argyle Advertiser</i>, 18 Sep 1852, p 3).\n<br>\nAccording to an article published in 1932, Major Parke led a group of colonists who shot a 'great number' of Aboriginal people in reprisal for the killing of the Meldrum family. The date given as '1856' in this article is most likely a misprint, as the murders occurred in 1852.\n'In 1856 aboriginals attacked\nMeldrum's home and killed all the inmates with the exception of a baby\nwho had been thrown against a wall\nand left there stunned. A man named\nImray (or Emery), who had been out\non the run shepherding sheep, on his\nreturn to the homestead found the\nbodies of the murdered people and also\ndiscovered the baby which had re\ncovered and was lying beside a cat.\nThe blacks who were responsible for\nthe tragedy were tracked over the\nrough country and were discovered on\na creek on the Macleay. A great number of them were shot by Major Parke\nand other residents of the district who\nhad joined in the chase' (<i>Dungog Chronicle: Durham and Gloucester Advertiser</i>, 7 Jun 1932, p 4).\n<br>\nIndigenous historian Callum Clayton-Dixon summarised the sequence of events thus:  'Following the killing of several colonists in the Bald Hills area in August 1852, a group of Aboriginal people were chased to the edge of a sheer bluff south of Ebor and were either shot or pushed over the edge, probably both. Constable Michael Clogher and Major Edward Parke were two of the main perpetrators' (Clayton-Dixon 2019, p.138).",

When a group of Aboriginal warriors arrived at the carrier's camp, 'dressed in \"war paint\", the police discharged their guns and the natives immediately retreated into the scrub where formerly they were safe as no white man dared follow.' However the Native Police immediately followed the Aborigines and in the words of Watts, 'the number they killed no one but the commander and themselves ever knew' (Skinner, 1975, pp 30-31).",
