Scammell was on the 114th day of its voyage from New York to Melbourne, and had set a course for Port Phillip Heads when bad weather and rough seas dragged the ship towards shore. It ran aground on a reef at Point Danger near Torquay. There were 22 people on-board the Scammell, including the wife and daughter of Captain J. A. Chapman. The ship's dangerous position was first noticed by local fishermen at approximately 11am, and one of the local fishermen, Felix Rosser, attempted to row out to the ship to provide assistance, but was forced back to shore by strong seas. The following day after the seas had settled, and with a crowd of onlookers watching from the shore, the crew of the ship were able to lower a boat and evacuate all on board. The stormy weather which had caused the accident did not abate for some time, and the ship began to break up, littering the beach with wreckage and the £60,000 cargo. By the following Sunday crowds of looters were flocking to the area.

  • A Bushranger at Bondi Junction
    A bushranger at Bondi Junction Sketch of Johnny Gilbert, c. 1860s The Waverley Hotel was an early local hotel which used to stand near the corner of Bondi Road and Waverley Crescent, Bondi Junction. It was described as ‘a bush shanty standing about 200 yards from the road’. On Saturday, 14 January 1854 the hotel was the scene of a murder when publican John Davis was found hacked to death. A newspaper description of the crime scene gives a sense of the bloody scene: ‘On the left side of the head was a terrible gash extending from eye to the ear, the bed and bedding being saturated with blood. Under the bed was found a blood-stained axe which had done the deed.’ The isolation of Bondi Junction made locals even more fearful that a murderer was loose in their midst, with the newspaper going on to explain: ‘This event has struck no small degree of dismay into the residents of the neighbourhood…there being no police protection, the nearest point…they could send for a constable being Paddington, a distance of nearly three miles.’ Suspicion immediately fell upon John Davis’s nephew, Joseph Roberts, described as a ‘mild looking youth said to be 17 years of age’ who worked with his uncle at the hotel and was now missing. Several mounted police started a search and Roberts was found 228 km from Sydney at Collector, near Canberra. He stated that he was riding to the goldfields. Evidence of Roberts’ guilt was purely circumstantial and local residents vouched for the boy’s good character.

Both will attempt to answer the question: How has the moral ambiguity that marks both colonial and contemporary Australian crime fiction been informed and influenced by the dissenter and anti- authoritarian aspects of Australian history and character? Crime fiction has a long tradition in Australian culture, ensured by its Western origins as a penal colony.

  • OBJECT BIOGRAPHY Gold Bullion
    Landmarks: People and Places across Australia, a gallery bringing together over 1500 objects, explores the history of Australia since European settlement. OBJECT BIOGRAPHY Gold Bullion Box At about noon on Sunday 15 June 1862 a coach left Forbes, bound for Orange, on the first stage of its journey to Sydney. Inside were mailbags, and four iron boxes packed with bank notes and gold. Four policemen and a driver travelled in and on the coach. This was the Lachlan ‘gold escort’. Every week it left Forbes on the same journey. People would gather to watch its departure. This time, five hours down the road near the tiny The Gold Bullion Box probably made after the 1862 hold-up. Photo: Lannon Harley, National settlement of Eugowra, a group of men were Museum of Australia. waiting for it, concealed behind a clump of large rocks. ‘Bail up!’ was the cry and amidst gunfire, frantic horses and wounded policemen, the coach capsized. A treasure of £14,000 was there for the taking. The heist had been carefully planned and led by a man calling himself Frank Gardiner, and with him was a group of eight or nine others, including John Gilbert, John O’Meally and, probably, Ben Hall. Bullion boxes and bags were loaded on to pack horses and at a camp about five kilometres away from the hold-up site, the men smashed open the boxes with an American tomahawk that Gilbert had bought in Forbes for this purpose. Gardiner had, in the preceding weeks, mingled among the crowd in Forbes on escort day and had probably observed that the boxes were secured only with Chubb padlocks.

While these photographs are often reproduced, their author remained unidentified, their purpose unknown. The lives of their subjects also remained unexamined. This study used government records, contemporary newspaper reportage, convict memoirs, historical research and modern criminological theory to identify the photographer, to discover the purpose and use of his work, and to develop an understanding of the criminal careers of these men.

  • American Outlaws in Australia
    International Journal of Social Science Studies Vol.1, No. 2; October 2013 ISSN 2324-8033 E-ISSN 2324-8041 Published by Redfame Publishing URL: http://ijsss.redfame.com American Outlaws in Australia Bruce Tranter1 & Jed Donoghue1 1University of Tasmania, Tasmania Correspondence: Bruce Tranter, School of Social Sciences, University of Tasmania, Private Bag 22, Hobart, Tasmania, 7001. E-mail: [email protected] Received: June 1, 2013 Accepted: June 17, 2013 Available online: June 24, 2013 doi:10.11114/ijsss.v1i2.158 URL: http://dx.doi.org/10.11114/ijsss.v1i2.158 Abstract An aspect of the diffusion of American popular culture is examined in this research drawing upon national survey data. Measuring Australians‟ knowledge of American and Australian outlaws, we found that Jesse James and Billy the Kid are better known in Australia than any of the local outlaws, or bushrangers, with the exception of Ned Kelly. While a relatively large proportion of Australians identified Ned Kelly, Ben Hall, Jesse James and Billy the Kid as outlaws, few identified other Australian „outlaws‟. Social background and political ideology is associated with greater knowledge of outlaws. Men, baby boomers and their predecessors, those born in Australia or the UK, those with a basic secondary level education and those identifying as left on the political spectrum are the most knowledgeable. This Australian study suggests that outlaws such as Jesse James and Billy the Kid are not just national folk heroes, but recognised globally. Promoted by visual and print media they have transcended their outlaw heritage to represent romanticised notions of freedom, loyalty and the „underdog‟, regardless of the historical facts surrounding their lives and deaths.

  • Reading the Historical Phenomenon of Australian Bushrangers
    READING THE HISTORICAL PHENOMENON OF AUSTRALIAN BUSHRANGERS Yohanes Hartadi English Department, Atma Jaya Indonesian Catholic University, Jln. Jenderal Sudirman No. 51, Jakarta Selatan 12930 ABSTRACT Outlaws in their various images have been important parts of history. In Australia, the longest lasting image of outlaws is the bushranger. Despite its popularity, there is a range of depictions of bushrangers and these are not necessarily similar. Interpretation of the bushrangers in colonial time differs from contemporary imagining. This papers aims at unfolding the various interpretations of the bushrangers in different periods in many types of artifact. Information was collected and interpreted by library research. The artifact analysis will be seen through a postmodernism theory by Michel Foucault and Roland Barthes. Since the phenomenon of bushranger stemmed from the colonial period, this study will commence from the period up to contemporary period. It can be concluded that a study of the different periods finds out that knowledge of the bushrangers does not make up a linear history, but rather a discontinuity in the historical narratives. Keywords: history, bushranger, Australian bushranger ABSTRAK Orang yang tidak taat hukum (penjahat) dalam gambaran yang berbeda adalah merupakan bagian sejarah yang penting. Di Australia, gambaran nyata bagi orang tak taat hukum adalah pengembara/petualang di hutan. Selain popularitas, terdapat berbagai gambaran berbeda tentang petualang tersebut. Interpretasi pada jaman kolonial berbeda dengan gambaran di masa kontemporer. Artikel bertujuan menunjukkan berbagai interpretasi terhadap petualang pada masa dan artefak berbeda. Informasi diperoleh dengan penelitian pustaka. Analisis artefak dilakukan dengan teori postmodernisme dari Michel Foucault dan Roland Barthes. Disimpulkan, studi dalam berbagai masa menunjukkan bahwa pengetahuan tentang petualang bukan merupakan sejarah linier, tetapi lebih pada ketidakberlangsungan dalam cerita sejarah.
