Has Cause ReasonhasCauseReason

• There were many reprisals extending for months after the killings of the Fraser family at Hornet Bank and comprised of both settlers/squatters, labourers, and NMP, often in organised bands. It is not clear how many events there were, or who conducted which. Many are not placed at any particular location and were probably opportunistic. As a result of these actions large numbers of Aboriginal people were killed and others driven from the area down into the Condamine and Balonne and into Wide Bay.^[1]all time · Row 1838 Eid 53161
