Police Magistrate
Herbetton
Dear Sir
I have the honor to inform you that I have got thirty blacks in from the Scrub, and expect fifteen or twenty more this week. I have killed two bullocks for them. I would request that you would grant me an allowance to feed them. I think if they got food they would give up molesting the Stock on the Stations near Waroora and the la[??] too. They have been troubling me for the last six years and killed thirty (30) head of cattle last year that I can vouch for, besides hunting the cattle off their run. Hoping you will be able to assist me. I have the honor to be
Yours truly
Fred W. Robinson
