Over the years I saw Ken whenever he made trips to Moroak Station, where he trapped horses for work on the Limmen; Moroak had thousands of brumbies.

On one of these trips, Ken persuaded Jack Gill to return with him for a season’s muster. Gilly was a white man, a good cattleman and handy with horses. Together they set off back to the Limmen with 50 horses.

At Newcastle Waters I packed a small box of what would then in the bush have been considered luxury items: food, books and tobacco, and two long, fat cigars, each in its own aluminium cylinder.

The package was taken bush by an old fella who knew where Ken and Gilly were camped. It was unpacked with as much delight as a parcel from under the Christmas tree. The cigars were carefully squirrelled away for a time when tobacco ran low.
