The body of a shepherd belonging to the estate of Mulgoa

Articles
A paragraph giving details of the finding of the body of a shepherd belonging to the estate of Mulgoa, who had been recently murdered by some natives, and was found in a mutilated and mangled state, having been perforated with spears in several parts. The shepherd's flock had consisted of over 200 fine sheep, most of whom were thrown down a precipice, and the rest mangled and killed with spears. Parties went out in quest of the murderers as soon as the melancholy information reached the contiguous settlements.
