Last of Gardiner's Gang Told by Former Trooper
W. G. Noble, ex mounted police, writes in GM Herald about the Eugowra gold escort robbery of 1862 and the pursuit of Frank Gardiner and the enigmatic “The Hermit.” The tale includes a dramatic chase near Forbes and the eventual arrest of Thomas O'Shea, alias Fordyce, with prints and testimony leading to convictions for various offences over the years.
