Senior Constable John McCabe
John McCabe was born in Ireland in 1828. He served in the Irish Constabulary for many years before emigrating to NSW in around 1862 and joining the NSW Police on 23 Feb 1863. Within 3 years he had been promoted to Senior Constable. McCabe was a bachelor and apart from a brother in Sofala he had no relations in the colony. McCabe was stationed at Biree (a small Station between Brewarrina and Eringonia) when, on 6 October 1868, he was shot during an encounter with the bushrangers Frank Pearson and Charley Rutherford at William Shearer's inn near Eringonia. Though he appeared to rally from the injury, McCabe's health deteriorated over the ensuing month. He died on 1 November 1868. The Maitland Mercury & Hunter River General Advertiser on 19 Nov 1868 described him thus: 'warmhearted, mild, and affable, in the fullest sense, and ever ready to.share his pay where distress appeared ; a staunch comrade, a faithful servant, and a brave man'.
John McCabe was buried near Shearer’s Inn. Sometime later the body was exhumed and transferred to the Anglican section of the Bourke Cemetery.A gravestone was erected bearing the inscription: 'Erected by the Government of N. S. Wales in memory of John McCabe Senior Constable in the N.S.W. police who died on the 1st of Nov. 1868 from the effects of wounds received while courageously performing his duty in
endeavouring to apprehend an armed bushranger.'

Charley Rutherford
Charley Rutherford was Frank Pearson's partner in crime. He was also known as 'Charley Ruthers', 'Charley Wilson' or 'Charlie Redford'. Charley's date and place of birth are unknown, although it is generally believed that he was Australian-born and aged about 22 at the time that he teamed up with Frank Pearson in 1868. According to Robert Lamph, innkeeper of Cannonbar, Rutherford worked breaking horses at Marianbone, Gunningbar Creek for 5 or 6 years. [Empire 20 Sept 1869, p.3] . Charley was working as a stockman for a Mr Wilson at the Derra Wells when he met Pearson. He decided to ditch his job and set off on a bushranging spree with the older man.
After the shoot-out at Shearer's Inn during which Senior Constable John McCabe was fatally wounded, Rutherford fled with Pearson. By December the pair had gone their separate ways. After Pearson's capture on Christmas day 1868, Rutherford remained at large for another 9 months. Reports of his deeds include the following:

After Pearson's capture on Christmas day 1868, Rutherford remained at large for another 9 months. Reports of his deeds include the following:
- By the end of 1868, Rutherford – also known in the region as Redford – was heard to be carrying on with his bushranging operations in the Lower Darling Region. He was believed to have stolen a couple of horses – Mr Fletcher’s racehorse ‘Eustace’ and Mr McPherson’s ‘Jackey’ – and to have stuck up the Menindee and Adelaide mail coaches in early January.
- Near Menindee he robbed the north-bound coach carrying the driver Mr Moodey and a passenger, Mr Duncan McRae of Tooralie Station [(1869, Jan 15), South Australian Register, p.3] ; that night he drank with the customers at the 'Cliff Inn'.After dark he left the inn but lingered in the area, riding in widening circles around the public house. Next night his face was seen in a window of the Menindee Hotel, and the following day he breakfasted at Mr Roger’s Tintinalogy Hotel, 40 miles from Menindee, where he also bought clothing.
- In early March he was seen near Booligal. He was low in spirits and said: 'I know there’s a rope waiting for me, and I don’t care how soon I am shot; I’m sorry for what I’ve done, but it can’t be helped now.' [(1869, March 1), South Australian Register, p. 2,3]
- 24 May 1869: Rutherford was seen in the northern NSW, committing, according to the newspapers, ‘occasional depredations’ in the vicinity of the Nandewar Ranges and Millie [(1869, May 29), Goulburn Herald, p.3]
- 26 May he stuck up Mr Jordan, the overseer of ‘Idgeroy’ station. At Idgeroy he helped himself to a horse belonging to Mr Moseley of Gundemaine Station as well as two saddles, two red blankets, two brown spotted Crimean shirts, two Scotch twill shirts, and one pair of moleskin trousers. To the men of the station he made excuses for the killing of McCabe, asserting that if he and Pearson had not shot McCabe, then the constable would have shot them. [South Australian Advertiser, 18 June 1869, p.2]
- In June and July Rutherford was believed to be hiding out still in the Nandewar Ranges near Narrabri. [The Maitland Mercury and Hunter River General Advertiser, 8 June 1869, p.2]
- In early September Rutherford became ‘troublesome’ in the neighbourhood of Warren; he stole race horses Physician and Adeline from Mr Wild’s station on the Merri Merri; but the horses got away and returned home
- 4 September: he held up Mr John Egan near Cannonbar, taking his horse, saddle and bridle
- 5 September, about noon, he rode up to the Pine Ridge Hotel, a pub kept by Mr C. Beauvais halfway between Warren and Cannonbar. He went into the dining room and asked ‘who is the publican?’ Beauvais said ‘I am’, and Rutherford asked him for money. Beauvais, not realising he was a bushranger, jokingly said ‘Any amount, how much do you want?’ to which Rutherford replied ‘£5, and all in notes’. Beauvais took no notice but went into the bar and gave Rutherford ‘a nobbler of brandy’. When Beauvais went into a room behind the bar, Rutherford followed him in, held a revolver to his head, and said: ‘what about this £5; I want it in notes’. WHen Beauvais protested Rutherford said: ‘there is no b-y gammon about me, and if you do not give me the money at once, I will take all you have in the house’. The money was in a box to which Beauvais' wife had the key; she was in the kitchen so the men entered the kitchen. When Rutherford saw 2 young men in the kitchen he ordered them out; while doing so he took his eye off Beauvais, who took the opportunity to attack Rutherford and seize the gun. In the ensuing scuffle, the gun went off and shot Rutherford in the head.
- At 11am on Monday, 6 September, Rutherford passed away.

Sergeant Andrew Cleary
|
Senior Sergeant Andrew Cleary was the police officer who captured 'Captain Starlight' in 1868. He was born in Ireland in 1843. After serving 2 years in the Irish Constabulary he immigrated to Australia in 1859. He joined the NSW police force on 12 Dec that year at age 21 and served most of his career in western NSW. In 1861 he was sent as part of police
reinforcements to control the mining riots at Lambing Flat. He later served at Forbes as part of the Gold Escort. Cleary joined the Mounted Police force in 1862 and in August of that year was sent to Coonamble to set up a police station. He was transferred to Bourke in 1867. He was promoted to Senior Sergeant in February 1868.
As well as capturing Starlight, Cleary was responsible for the capture of bushrangers Owens at Coonamble and Daniel Sullivan alias Taylor on the Bogan River. Cleary was described by the Evening Star 22 Feb 1912 p.10 as ‘a big-boned Irishman, standing over 6ft in height’ and ‘with a cheery nature that is revealed by his geniality with everyone’. He had 10 children. Cleary retired due to ill health on March 31, 1884. Cleary's colourful reminiscences were reported in the Evening News on 22 Feb 1912, p.10. Back to top |
Mrs Ambrosine Bowley
Mrs Ambrosine Bowley was Starlight's landlady at the time of his death. She was also probably his closest friend in his final years; he referred to her at various times as 'Aunty' or 'Sister'. She claimed at the inquest of the man she knew as 'Major Pelly' that he had at one time been engaged to her niece, though the engagement had been broken off. Who this niece might have been remains a mystery.
Mrs Bowley was born Ambrosine Pridham on 29 March 1854 at Willunga, SA, to Jasper and Mary Pridham (nee Pennington). She gave birth to Harry Bowley on 11 June 1882 in Crystal Brook SA, but did not marry his father, Henry Bowley, until 1896 in Perth. (According to her marriage certificate, Ambrosine married Henry Bowley at the Wesley Church. The minister who married them was Charles Alfred Jenkins, one of the ministers who helped 'Pelly' when he was in need). It appears that the couple lived apart for several years: Ambrosine residing in Perth while her husband worked as a miner at Marble Bar, WA. Presumably to make ends meet, Mrs Bowley took in lodgers, one of whom was Captain Starlight, going by the name of Major Patrick Francis Marie Pelly. At the time of his death at the end of 1899, the newspapers described Mrs Bowley as a widow, though her husband was in fact alive.
Pelly first took lodgings with Mrs Bowley at 162 Lincoln St. He was living with her there by January 1898 when he made a will in her favour. He bequeathed to Mrs Bowley 'all my household furniture, linen, wearing apparel, books, pictures, drawing and also any salary due to me by department of Geological Survey ; and I also bequeath to the said Mrs. Asbrosine Bowley my life assurance' [(1901, March 19). Kalgoorlie Western Argus, p. 9.] He also left her his cat.
When Mrs Bowley moved to 288 Beaufort Street, her lodger moved with her. He died in her home on 23 December 1899. After his death it was discovered that the alleged 'life assurance' was bogus and 'Pelly' had nothing to leave her. Shortly after Starlight's death Mrs Bowley moved to 294 Bulwer Street. While initially she was suspicious of the police enquiries into the identity of the deceased, later she was persuaded to co-operate.
Mrs Bowley changed address a number of times over the following years [See Perth PO Directories]. She appears to have re-united with her husband at some point and upon her death in 1922 was described as his 'beloved wife'. [Western Mail, 22 Sept 1922, p.19]
Her husband, Henry Bowley, died in Perth in 1931. Back to top

Harry Bowley
Harry Bowley was the son of Mrs Ambrosine Bowley, Starlight's landlady. Shortly after 'Pelly' accidentally swallowed cyanide on 22 December 1899, it was Harry who discovered him and went for the doctor. He was aged 17 at the time. Born on 11 June 1882 in Crystal Brook SA, Harry was the son of Ambrosine (nee Pridham) and Henry Bowley.
At the time of 'Pelly's' death, Harry was employed as a cadet with the Geological Survey of WA. He went on to have a successful career with the department. By 1914 he was promoted from assistant chemist and assayer to Assistant Mineralogist and Chemist. By 1946 he had obtained the position of Director of the Western Australian Government Chemical Laboratories. He married his first cousin, Ruby Remecker Petersen, in 1910. The pair produced two daughters, Beryl and Eileen, both of whom inherited Harry’s interest in science. Eileen was appointed guide-lecturer at the Perth Museum in 1937, and her sister Beryl graduated with a science degree from the University of Western Australia. Harry’s death was registered in Murray, Western Australia, in 1958. He was 75 years of age.

George Kirkaldy Pelly
|
George Kirkaldy Pelly was the brother of Patrick Edward Pelly, (the petty criminal and friend of Captain Starlight from whom Starlight took his final alias.) Born in 1859, George was the son of Michael and Honoria Pelly of Portumna, in County Galway, Ireland. Besides Patrick, George was the only other of Michael and Honoria’s children to emigrate to Australia. He was educated at Summerhill College before moving to London in 1877. He reportedly excelled in his civil service examination and joined the British Admiralty. George emigrated to Australia, arriving in Sydney on 28 December 1888 and in Brisbane a few days later. In Queensland he worked as a clerk with the Australasian United Steamship and Navigation Company. In May of 1889, George married Elizabeth (Bessie) Mary Turner in Brisbane. The couple had a son who died the following year. By then – 1891 – George and his wife had moved to Sydney, where they would remain for the rest of their lives. George was, according to his brother, a methodical fellow; ‘a stout man of fair hair and complexion, auburn moustache, about 39 years of age [in 1899], 5ft 10in high, and 16st weight.’ George died in Sydney on 4 September 1918. He was noted for his 'quiet but none the less active interest in matters religious and political', for his charity and as a capable member of the St Francis' (Paddington) Literary and Debating Society.

Charles Holloway
Charles Holloway was a warder at St Helena Island during the time that 'Frank Gordon' and Patrick Edward Pelly were imprisoned there. According to Patrick Pelly, Holloway was a witness to the 'wills' that the pair made, naming each other as beneficiaries.
Holloway was baptised at Wilmington, Sussex, England, on 12 Feb 1837. By 1872 he had moved to QLD and was farming in Ipswich. In 1877, at the age of forty, Holloway was appointed to the position of warder on St Helena. He brought with him a wife, New South Wales-born Eliza Jane Holloway (née Amlin), and two children: three-year-old Sarah Ann and baby George. More children were born on the island: Lydia in 1879, Frank in 1881, Charles Robert in 1883, Edith in 1885, and Ethel Jane in 1886. In 1889 after Holloway’s departure from the island, Ernest William was born.
Holloway suffered much tragedy during his time at St Helena. On 18 December 1881 his newborn son, Frank, died after a seven-week long period of ‘Marasmus’, or ‘wasting away’. The three-month-old baby was buried in the graveyard for the children of warders on the island.Then in 1884 his eight-year-old son George received an injury that caused him to contract tetanus, and after three days he too passed away. George was buried with his brother in the island cemetery.
In 1882 John McDonald – then Superintendent of the prison – telegraphed a grievance to the mainland. Apparently Holloway’s and other warders’ sick leave was causing staffing shortages, and the disgruntled McDonald’s complaint implied that he suspected malingering. Nothing came of the complaint; Holloway returned to duty and continued to serve. No official charges against him were recorded in the defaulters’ book.
On 21 September 1886 Holloway's twelve-year-old daughter Sarah Ann claimed that Warder John Isaac Canning assaulted her, pushing her against a fence and tearing her underclothes. An official complaint was made against the warder but eventually the charges were dismissed. [QLD State Archives Item ID92276, Letterbook; letter 22, 29 Sept 1886] and [QLD State Archives Item ID847215, Correspondence - inwards, Circa 1/1/1886- Circa 31/12/1886. Letter No. 86/7527. Letter dated 6 October 1886.]
In 1889 another child – Holloway's three-year-old daughter, Edith – fell ill with pneumonia. She was removed to a hospital in Brisbane but died a few days later [The Telegraph 3 April 1888, p.4]. Then at the end of the year Holloway was summarily dismissed, his ailments rendering him unable to fulfil his duties to the satisfaction of the Superintendent. He was ordered to leave his post at once, without notice or payment in lieu of notice. Holloway protested. He wrote to the Premier of Queensland complaining about the unfairness of his case. In view of his long and faithful service, and because of his dependants, the decision was reviewed and he was awarded two months’ pay [QLD State Archives Item ID847298, Correspondence – inwards; letter number 10848]. He eventually found work as a night watchman in Brisbane and died in 1923 at the age of 85.

Dr Nyulasy
|
Dr Nyulasy was the doctor who attended Captain Starlight on the night of his death and performed the autopsy. 'Pelly' had been a patient of Dr Nyulasy's for the years prior to his death. Dr Arthur John Nyulasy, M.R.C.S. ENG was born in about 1865 in New Zealand but of Hungarian heritage. Early in life he studied engineering at the University of Melbourne but soon turned his attention to medicine instead, studying in Melbourne, Edinburgh, London, Paris and Berlin. After qualifying in Edinburgh and London he returned to Australia. After a stint back in Melbourne assisting his brother, Frank Nyulasy, in medical practice, Nyulasy settled in Perth. Dr Nyulasy was credited with discovering the source of an outbreak of typhoid fever in Perth in 1898. He served as a surgeon and captain in the Boer War and on his return he was elected gynaecological surgeon at the Perth Hospital. Dr Nyulasy's promotion from assistant honorary surgeon to senior honorary surgeon in 1907 was a controversial appointment that resulted in the resignation of several doctors in protest. [The Advertiser, 22 Jan 1907, p.5 and The Sunday Times 16 Dec 1906, p.5]. Further controversy surrounding deaths of some patients under his care suggest that Dr Nyulasy's patients did not always warm to him. See Sunday Times, 10 Feb 1907, p.5 and 2 Dec 1906, p.5. These incidents, however, appear to have been aberrations in a medical career that was highly regarded by the fraternity, particularly within the field of gynaecology and obstetrics. Dr Nyulasy never married. He died in Melbourne on 28 February 1924. His obituary in the British Medical Journal (24 May 1924, v.1, 3308) may be read online here. More biographical detail may be found in the Western Mail, 9 Feb 1901, p.33 Back to top |
