Jim Walker: Bush Outstation Hero and Rescue
The tale recounts Jim Walker, alias Finn, a bushman who fled his past and endured savage attack while guarding a sheep outstation near Glen Lyon Run. After his hut is burned and a dog dies defending him, Walker fights through, escapes with Sandie, and is aided by a rescuing party from the head station. The incident leaves his guard dog honored and the whites victorious over the Tatiana natives.
