Catholic Missions to the Aborigines in North Queensland
CATHOLIC MISSIONS TO THE ABORIGINES IN NORTH QUEENSLAND John Maguire By the time the first Catholic priest set foot in North Queensland in 1863 the general attitude of the white immigrant society toward the original inhabitants had already been well determined. By and large Catholics were no different in their attitudes from the rest of the European settlers. Ignorant of the basic presuppositions and values of aboriginal society, fearful of what was strange and unknown, they were primarily concerned with their own survival in an alien environment. The image of the blacks painted by reporting in the Freeman's Journal, (produced by a group of Liberal Catholics) did little to challenge the general attitude: "murder of two sawyers by the blacks", "more outrages by the blacks...Burnett district: 1400 ewes driven away from Mr Hay's station and the shepherd murdered", "more murders by the blacks...a man and his daughter about 12 years of age on the Station of Mr Wilkins 12 miles from Gayndah", "the aborigines in the neighbourhood of the lower Condamine once again in arms driving everything before them and killing cattle in all directions", "a Mr Stuart on Mr Trevethan's run beaten in a most barbarous manner... some of his sheep driven off", "murder of Mr Colin McKay and four of Mr Trevethan's men by aboriginal natives", "deadly fued among the blacks", "aborigines have again commenced hostilities", "Mr Clarke has fallen a sacrifice to the assaults of these savages".1 That the white settlers were themselves doing violence to Aboriginal people and customs was adverted to by only a few. -
