Paddy Ambrose used to be boss for BB station; he ran two stations one in Alice Springs and BB. But he, that bloke, he was a bad man. He was really rough on Aboriginal people. He smashed up old ladies, men, anyone. Once he chased one lady who ran away. Ambrose chased men, he shot Aboriginal men, he didn't mind.

Another time he chained an old man to a tree and left him there. Two old men were in the house. Then Ambrose, he came up with a chain and a rifle. Then that old man, he ran out with a knife. He ran way to hide at Morphett Creek. He ran up the hill and Ambrose chased him. Ambrose tracked him, he caught that old man and chained him up to the tree and shot him there.

I sat under that tree with my aunt, she told us that story, how that old man died, so we wouldn't forget. Then the police came and took Ambrose to jail in a wagon.
