| Has Description | On Saturday last it was discovered that a number of horses, the property of our towns-men, which were paddocked on the island the other side of Ross Creek, were missing ; immediate search was made to find their tracks. It appeared that they crossed the Ross River near its mouth, notwithstanding there being abundance of grass and a good supply of water on the island. On Monday, Mr. Houghton succeeded in following up the track, and at last come upon a small mob, when he found that every one had been speared, some having no less than seven spear wounds, he also found the carcase of one of his own horses, which had been speared through the heart. The wounded horses he brought into town. Mr. Head also sustained a heavy loss, one of his horses, a rather valuable animal, was found dead ; also a foal of Mr. Gordon's. Three horses are still missing, and it is to be feared they have met with a similar fate to those of Messrs. Houghton and Head. Mr. Poin d'Esterre, of the Native Police Force, who happened to be in town, immediately started in pursuit of the blacks. | [1] |
