Constable Fired At
GEORGE’S RIVER CASE
George Thomas DAVISON. 66, was charged on remand at the Central Police Court to-day with shooting at Constable Neild Gillies, with Intent to do grievous bodily harm.
The evidence for the prosecution was that about 5.45p.m. on the 15th instant, the constable went to the accused’s residence, Castle-street, George’s River, a lonely spot surrounded by bush and scrub. Davidson was in a paddock about 30 yards from the house, and as Gillies approached he hurried inside and closed the door. The Constable knocked and called loudly, “Mr. Davison, I want to speak to you.”‘ Getting no response he turned away, and when about eight yards from the house he heard the door open. Looking back he saw the accused standing with the door partly open, and in his hand a double-barrelled gun pointing in his ( Gillies ) direction. Almost immediately an explosion occurred, and a shot passed close to the constable. Gillies ran back, and accused attempted to close the door, but he was overpowered, and the gun taken from him.
George Thomas Davison. 66. who was charged with shooting at Constable Neild Gillies with Intent to do him grievous bodily harm, was to-day committed for trial at the Central Police Court. The alleged shooting, it was stated, took place at accused’s house at George’s River, a lonely spot surround by bush and scrub.
Sergeant Gorman stated that when the accused was brought to the Kogarah Police Station, Constable Gillie. said “This man nearly shot me.” Accused replied, ” You nearly shot me in the kitchen.”
Constable Kincade said that about January 16. he had a conversation with the accused, saying to him, ” I hope we will have no further trouble In reference to the oyster lease notice boards.” Accused replied, ” I have not had justice in reference to that matter. According to the decision of an English court of law, I would be justified in shooting any person who even trespassed on my properly.”
An extraordinary application was made by George Thomas Davison, an elderly man, of Kogarah (N.S.W.), in the Full Court, Sydney, yesterday. Davison applied for a writ of mandamus, calling upon the Prime Minister of the Commonwealth requiring him to cause a referendum to be taken to ascertain whether the people of Australia would prefer military forces to be substituted for the police.
Three carefully written affidavits were filed by the applicant, who declared that a criminal in the police force had molested him to an alarming extent, that they had kidnapped him from his home and lands, and unlawfully imprisoned him in Kogarah for 14 days ; that the New South Wales police had held up a sure cure for cancer, and that the ‘keep to the left’ by-law was an absurdity.
The Chief Justice (Sir Philip Street), after reading the affidavits informed the applicant that the court had no jurisdiction to entertain his motion.
Mr. Davison then announced his intention of applying to the High Court.
George Thomas Davison, a grey haired old man, has become a familiar figure In the Banco Court when the Full Bench is sitting. He appeared again to-day, armed with a bundle of legal-looking documents, and once more secured the attention of the Full Court for the consideration of a grievance which he has brought before the court on several occasions. Mr. Davison’s trouble is that he can not persuade the Full Court to grant him a writ of mandamus to compel the Premier to take a referendum on the questions of whether the military should be substituted for the police, and that the soldiers should be given land instead of increased pay, the money thus saved to be devoted to providing profitable work for the people.
In his affidavit in support of his application Mr. Davison declared that “Cancers have caused thousands of deaths to people and stock since 1902, through the stupidity and dishonesty of the N.B.W. police, who also ‘aided and abetted unbearable molestations against me, which the Premier did not reply to my complaint. So I hereby, for the safety and peace of all honest people of N.S.W, call upon the Premier and the N.S.W. Government to show cause in this Honorable Court within eight days of the filing of this affidavit, why a mandamus should not issue ordering that a referendum be placed before the people so that they may vote : Should the military be substituted for police or not.”
NO JURISDICTION
Mr. Justice James said the Court had no jurisdiction to deal with such a matter. “We have no power,” added his Honor, “to grant mandamus calling on the Premier to take a referendum. You will nave to put it before them as an election issue. That is the only course I can suggest’
And Mr. Davison, gathering up his papers, left the Court.

THE FRIENDS of Sergeant TUBMAN are respectfully invited to attend the Funeral of his late beloved WIFE, to move from his residence, 111 Prince-street, a quarter to 2 p.m., THIS DAY, the 8th instant, for the Necropolis.
THE FRIENDS of Mr. HENRY TUBMAN, Sergeant of the Sydney Police, are respectfully invited to attend the Funeral of his deceased WIFE, Maria Anne Tubman; to move from his residence, No. 111 Prince-street, THIS (Thursday) AFTERNOON, at a quarter before 2 o’clock, for the Necropolis.
J. and G. SHYING and CO., Undertakers, 719, George-street S.
We learn that Sergeant Henry Tubman, of the City Police Force, is about to retire upon an allowance granted under the provisions of the superannuation Act. It is probably that there are few persons who have had so much experience of the police force, and fewer still who as policemen have been witness of so many stirring events as has Sergeant Tubman. That officer has worn the uniform of a protector of life and property for more than 39 years.
During that period he has served in the Irish, the English, and the colonial constabulary, and been a witness of some of the scenes of strife engendered in Ireland by the agitation for the repeal of the Union, a spectator when O’Connell addressed an assemblage of 150,000 people, one who was armed with a sawback cutlass at the time of the Chartist riots, and a witness of the opening of the first International Exhibition in London in 1851.
SergeantTubman joined the Irish constabulary as a constable on the 1st March, 1841, and was first called upon to do duty at proceedings in connection with a general election held at Erldunda. The election lasted three days, and as the question of the repeal of the Union was agitating the people’s minds there was a considerable amount of excitement attended by riotous proceedings.
Constable Tubmanresigned on the 24th December, 1845, and joined the London police force on the 11th May of the following year. He was amongst those who had to do duty during the period that the Chartistsgave so much trouble. As it was thought that the Chartists contemplated a wholesale slaughterof the police force, the constables were armed with sawback cutlasses, and were employed on duty in pairs.
In the year 1854 some difficulty was experienced in Sydney in retaining constables, owing to the attractions which the newly discovered goldfields then presented. The local Government sent to England for a number of men, who had had previous experience as constables, and against whom there were to be no marks for drunkenness. It was also stipulated that any men to be sent to the colony must have borne an excellent character.
Forty-six men were selected, amongst whom was 32 year old Constable Tubman. They came to Sydney by the ship Bangalore, which arrived in Port Jackson on the 13th January, 1855. Three weeks after his arrival Mr. Tubman was promoted to the rank of sergeant, and two years later he was raised to the rank of acting inspector.
Mr. Tubman retired from the force by resignation on the 11th May, 1857, but he rejoined on the 4th October, 1869. For the last five or six years he has hold the position of sergeant in charge of the summons room of the Water Police Court, where his courteous demeanour has secured him many friends.
Sergeant Tubman, who ¡s now upwards of 60 years of age, retires on an allowance of 5s. 10d. per day, which is equal to two-thirds the amount of his daily pay.
We understand that provision has also been made for the immediate retirement of’ Senior-constable John Carton, the trooper who has been stationed at Manly Beach for the last 15 or 16 years.
At the ST. LEONARDS POLICE COURT, yesterday, before Mr. G. W. F. Addison, S.M., J. O. Phillips, summoned by the Inspector of Nuisances for the Borough of St. Leonards, for using on his premises nightsoil brought from elsewhere without permission, was fined 40s., and complainant’s costs £1 11s. 6d., levy and distress, or 14days.
John McClinchy, summoned by Henry Tubman, Inspector of Nuisances for the Borough of Victoria, for obstructing him when acting under the authority of the Nuisances Prevention Act, was fined £3, and costs 7s., levy and distress, or one month.
Anton Ham was ordered to pay 10s. per week for 12 months towards the support of his wife, the first payment to be made at St. Leonards police station on Monday next, with 5s. 10d. costs.
Mr. Henry Tubman, late Inspector of Nuisances to the Borough of East St. Leonards, has been re-appointed, out of 120 applicants to the position, at a salary of £150 per annum. He was inspector to that borough, and also to the borough of Victoria, at each place receiving a salary of £80 per annum. He will, of course, resign his position at Victoria.

An ex-senior sergeant of police and a pensioner in the person of Mr. Henry Tubman died at his residence, Arthur-street, North Sydney, on Saturday last.
The deceased, who was well advanced in years, had seen considerable service in the force. There was a large attendance of police officers at the funeral on Monday, the Police Band being also present.
TUBMAN — At his residence, ‘ Avoca,’ Arthur street, North Sydney, Henry Tubman, ex Senior-sergeant of Police, aged 77 years. Dearly beloved father of Mrs A. H. McEachern, of David street, Albury.
The subject of the appended paragraph from Sydney paper was the ‘father-in-law of Mr. A H. McEachern, of Albury ; — Henry Tubman, an ex-police sergeant, died on Saturday at North Sydney at the age of 77 years. The deceased appears to have been ill for a considerable time, and had had consequently a protracted confinement to his house. A few years ago Mr. Tubman filled the office of inspector of nuisances to the East St. Leonards Council, and about the period of the amalgamation of the Council he was one of the unsuccessful candidates.
The funeral on Monday was attended by several members of the local police force.
Tubman joined the Royal Irish Constabulary when 18 years of age, thence he passed to the London Police. In 1854, the Government of New South Wales called for volunteers from the London Police, and Tubman was one of those accepted. He came here in the ship ‘ Bungalore,’ in company with the present Superintendent Reid.
Being a steady and zealous officer, he rose in the force, and became inspector about the year 1856. He was transferred to Penrith, and after six or seven years’ service, returned to Sydney until May, 1882, when he retired on a pension.
“He leaves behind a widow & 4 children”. This shows that me ‘may have’ remarried after the death of his wife, Maria Anne Tubman, in January 1880, whilst living at 111 Prince St. The ‘second wife’ may ‘possibly be’ Faith TUBMAN who either died on, or was buried on, the 11 November 1926 in a grave next to Henry. Methodist 1, A, 149 of Gore Hill Cemetery, NSW.
The St. Leonards circuit has recently lost by death two of its most venerable church members. The first to lay down the burden of life was Mr. Thomas Swinger, ……….
The next to be removed Henry Tubman, from the Church Militant to the Church Triumphant, was Mr. Henry Tubman, one of the oldest members of the St. Leonards Church, and a trustee for the Parraween property. He died at his residence in Arthur Street, North Sydney, on Wednesday, 17th. March, in his 78th. year, and his body was laid in the grave in the beautiful cemetery at Gore Hill, on Monday, 19th. ultimo.
For six long months he was afflicted, but his fortitude and submission to the Divine will were unfailing. He loved prayer, reading of the Scriptures, and the visits of Christian friends. In the last hours of his life he suffered greatly, death was hard work to him physically but his faith did not fail him. His lips were often seen to move in prayer, and the Lord in whom he trusted fulfilled his promise and did not leave nor forsake him in his mortal struggle.
Mr. Tubman was a retired sergeant of the Police Force of the Colony, having joined it upwards of 40 years ago, and was at one time a well known member of our church in the Bourke Street and York Street circuits. He had resided at St. Leonards for the past 18 years.

McEACHERN.— March 22, 1909, at Manly, of Bright’s disease, Rebecca Emily Estella, dearly loved third daughter of Archibald H. and Rebecca McEachern, of Albury, and granddaughter of the late Henry Tubman, Esq, of North Sydney, aged 23 years.
John Carton was born in the County of Wexford, Ireland in 1836.
Constable Carton, who took over the top job in 1867, was the first officer to live at Manly police station, which was completed shortly before he took up the post. Interestingly, Constable Carton lived at the station with his wife and five children. The station had stables and 2 cells, one for males and one for females. Their ‘patrol’ extended up to Palm Beach. Prior to the station being built, the area was covered by Police from Sydney.
The first person arrested after the building was completed was one of the stonemasons, for “celebrating too boisterously”. He was thrown into the station’s new lock-up shortly after the work was completed.
According to a Mr MacRitchie, (Historian) he was a brave man.
He risked his life trying in vain to save a man from drowning at South Steyne on New Year’s Day in 1878. He also led efforts to put out the fire that swept through West Esplanade in 1877, destroying several houses. This was before there was any fire service in Manly.
Senior Constable Carton died of tuberculosis in 1882, aged 46.
He is mentioned in a number of ‘trove’ articles regarding ‘fatals’ he attended on the northern beaches. They sometimes gave his rank as Constable and Sergeant. He died 23/05/1882 at Manly. On a death notice it is mentioned that at the time of his death he was a ‘Senior Constable’ Not ‘former’ Senior Constable.
He is buried in the Catholic section of Manly Cemetery along with his wife.

HONOURED: Ray Strong, Ian Radford and Robert Munday were celebrated for their services to policing with the medals.
Angus Taylor M.P. Bob Munday & A/Supt Evan Quarmby Goulburn NSW
THREE retired police officers living in the Goulburn region were honoured last Friday morning when presented with national Police Service medals.
Hume’s MP Angus Taylor and Local Area Command acting Superintendent Evan Quarmby presented the medals to retired Chief Superintendent Ian Radford, retired officer Robert (Bob) Munday, and retired officer Ray Strong.
Each had joined the NSW Police in the 1960s and retired in the 1990s, with careers spanning general policing, United Nations Force in Cyprus and scientific units.
“One of the best things I get to do when I’m relieving positions around the command is to come and help celebrate and recognise some of the people before me in this organisation,” Superintendent Quarmby said at the informal ceremony.
“What you have done and put into this organisation has made it what it is today … You’ve built this force.”
Mr Taylor said he thought it a “great honour” to present the service medals to the men.
Mr Radford joined the NSW Police in 1961 and had a career that spanned hundreds of kilometres, from three metropolitan divisions to Narribri, Grafton, Dubbo, Albury, Wagga Wagga, Griffith and the Southern Highlands. He was awarded the National Medal in 1980 and again in 1991 and 1997. He retired in 1997.
Mr Munday joined the force in 1967 and worked across the No. 14 Division, CI Branch, No. 25 Division, Albury and Queanbeyan. Mr Munday also spent 10 years in scientific and forensic policing.
He was awarded the National Medal in 1983 and the first Clasp to the National Medal in 1993. He retired in 1993.
Mr Strong joined the police in 1968. He was first stationed at Burwood and later in No. 21 Division, Newtown and Marrickville before transferring to North Broken Hill, a one-man station.
He then worked in Lightning Ridge and, later, Wyong. In 1991, he was transferred to Hillston Police Station as officer- in-charge, where he retired in 1996.
In 1992, Mr Strong attended Government House in Sydney, where the Governor of NSW Rear Admiral Peter Sinclair, alongside then Police Commissioner Tony Lauer, awarded him the Police Overseas Service Medal, for his 12-month involvement with the United Nations Forces in Cyprus.
Mr Strong was one of 40 police officers from across Australia attached to the UN Force.
He was also awarded the National Medal in 1984 and the first Clasp to the National Medal in 1995.
2 weeks after these photos were taken, Bob had died.

Today was a sad day. We said goodbye to a dear mate, and fellow NOB ( Narwee Old Boy ), John ( Chuck) Sato. He was a much loved and life long friend to Greg Butto, Steve Stephen Dunstan ( Dunno), Geoff ( The Macca), Bruce ( Butchy) and Chris ( Hordy) Moore, who sadly went before him 2 years ago. He was also Much loved by the “Golden Boyz of Oz’s” wives and partners, Nola, Sharon, Lisa and many other good mates like Singo, Ian ( Fatty) and many more. Today was a reminder of good times, shared laughs and the importance of good friends in hard times. He was a fine, gentle man, with a good heart, strong faith, and a helping hand.
Our love and thoughts go out to his loyal and loving wife Joan Sato and his children Lily and Mike. He would have been so proud of you all today. He was honoured with a Police Funeral and a the Force did a wonderful job.
Godspeed, Chuck.
Nicole Frank Rest in peace to your friend xx

Nola H Moore As always, Julie, you have put into words so elequently our thoughts. A lovely tribute. But, do you know, I believe he wasn’t actually a NOB but a friend of NOB. The boys can correct me if I’m wrong.
