In 1943 a rape occurred and a baby was born. This man thought he was a bit of a stud. Spreading his seed among the local Aboriginal girls. His DNA was spread like a plague, corrupting the young and beautiful women of the north. Evil he was and unpunished he stayed. The pain that he caused still last to this day.
The owner of Abington Downs cattle station probably thought no one would care about these Aboriginal women. I have a long memory and so do my family.
People sometimes wonder why we as Aboriginal people are so mad at the world. The answer to that is that sometimes sorry is not enough. Sometimes men like Percy Edwards needs to be punished.
