Australian Bushranging The Early Days
The article recounts bushrangers setting ambushes near the scene of Green's murder, hiding among gum trees and using a lay of guards. It details arms, suspects Armstrong and Chamberlain, the pursuit by Police led by Inspector Hill and others, capture near Livingstone Creek, and the eventual Melbourne trial and execution in 1859. It notes a later 1887 treachery on the overland route and closes with a teaser “To be Continued.”
