After 200 sheep went missing in January 1848, Price Maurice’s overseer, JF Hayward, accompanied by the police stationed at Mount Remarkable, found a group of women and children and a quantity of mutton. They stated that the sheep, and the men who took them, were in the neighbourhood of Mount Brown. On arriving at that location, Hayward realised he had been deceived. After eventually taking Charley prisoner, Hayward took him to Burra, where the magistrate refused to sentence Charley due to the lack of evidence.

In the presence of shepherd, George Miles, and his assistant, Taityanna-Widlo, Padlarra took one of William Rogers’ sheep at Rogues’ Gully. Two days later, Padlarra was arrested by Police Constable Coyte, Native Constable Jim Crack and Taityanna-Widlo.
