The Last of the Bushrangers Flick of Queensland Heroics
Joe Flick, once famed as the last of Queensland bushrangers, leads a violent life marked by gunfights, escapes, and dramatic police confrontations. After a fatal hotel pistol duel and a violent chase from Normanton to Lawn Hill, he is pursued by Sergeant Wavel and troopers. Wavel is killed, Flick is wounded, and a long pursuit culminates in Flick's death. The chronicle ends with the narrator recounting the tragedy and their ongoing friendship despite the dangers.
