Wyong. To the Editor of the Sydney Monitor and Commercial Advertiser. Sirs-Considering it a duty due to the public I beg leave to request that you will permit me through the medium of your paper, to enquire how it was that the party of mounted police, headed by Sergeant Lee who were in pursuit of the notorious bushrangers ' Marshall' ,Ruggy, 'Shay', Davis and 'Chitty' on or about the 14th December last, allowed them to escape their notice when they were so close that they captured three of their horses. This occurred at Reid's Mistake Heads. The police party had a native guide- and they must have known that the bushrangers were not very far away when the horses loaded and saddled were found grazing. The bushrangers said that the police were so close upon them that they only evaded them by swimming across the Lake Macquarie. Had the police quietly laid in ambush they would in all probability have detected the marauders mounting horses-all throughout, I must confess that there appears to have been very little military skill or common forethought shown by the police party. I remain Sir your obedient servant...... A. SUFFERER.

Depositions taken in July 1839 at inquiry re collision between mounted police under J. W. Nunn and aborigines Deposition of Serjeant John Lee - In all our previous communications with the blacks, Major Nunn had been extremely kind to them. I was senior serjeant of the party and the orders I received from Major Nunn and gave to the detachment, were that they were not in any case to fire upon the blacks, unless it was necessary for their own defence. This was a standing order with the party. There was no remission of the pursuit from the time the firing began until it ceased altogether. We followed them about a mile and a half from where it began. Two iron bolts and a tin dish were found in the blacks s camp, which I heard Lamb say were taken from Mr. Cobb s station when the men were murdered. The black boy Jacky our interpreter told me the Guides, who were with us, undertook to lead us to the tribe that murdered Mr. Cobb s men. - John Lee x his mark.
