Jacky..NSW..Rylestone-Mudgee Region.
1861. (Western Post and Mudgee News.1st June 1861)
"..Our little village was startled out its propriety,
last Sunday, by a report that Mr WADDINGTON's (National
School Teacher) house had been broken open during his
absence from home. On inquiry it turned out that a man
named Jacky, an aboriginal, had broken two panes in the
school-house windows, and by putting his hand through
the broken panes, had stolen a time piece that was
conveniently placed on a small shelf near the windows.
Jacky took the time-piece to Mr SHUMACK, shoemaker,
telling him it was his, and to take care of it for him;
after this exploit,he very coolly walked into Mr WALTON's
stable, and seeing a horse ready saddled, &c.,with a
valise strapp'd on, - he made free to take it. Since
which he has not been seen; this was most barefaced
robbery; several people saw him with the horse, but
imagined it was one that had been lent him to brake in.
The police have been out for 3 or 4 days, and although
they have heard of him, and one day were only an hour
behind him!, they did not manage to take him, which
by-the-bye is a great pity, for a greater scoundrel,
cannot be. I forgot to mention that the horse belongs
to Mr McLEOD, who lives a few miles from Ryalstone.
