| Has Location Notes Issues | There are no details of where this event actually occurred (but note variations in descriptions of location above) and before the camp was approached "the sergeant and the troopers had to leave their horses and to walk up and down ranges for about four miles, and then follow them about two miles into the scrub". Given that this event was linked to the appearance of Aboriginal people on the Palmer Road, this was presumably south of Cooktown (towards the Palmer). This is an arbitrary location approx. 40 miles south of Cooktown, not far from the coast. | [1] |
