Has DescriptionhasDescription

• From a gentleman who arrived in town this week we have received intelligence of another murder committed by the native blacks in the Burnett district about a fortnight ago. The victim was a Coolie shepherd, in the employment of Mr. G. Sandeman, at Burrandowan. He was killed while out with his sheep, having been found speared in the back of the neck, and afterwards tomahawked. As the body was not stripped, nor any of the sheep taken away, the murder is believed to have been caused by revenge for the deceased having ordered some of the natives from his hut on the previous day, when they had been importuning him for flour, and upon which occasion they showed much violent conduct. The murderers were tracked for some distance from where the body was found, but up to our informant's departure none of them had been overtaken. The settlers are crying loudly for the native police, and we hope that our frequent representations on this head will have the effect of inducing Mr. Marshall to visit the district with his corps immediately. (Moreton Bay Courier, 20 April 1850, p2; Maitland Mercury and Hunter River General Advertiser, 30 April 1850, p2).
