The Sydney Gazette and New South Wales Advertiser (NSW : 1803 - 1842) Sat 5 Mar 1803 Page 3 Fugitives.
Fugitives.
On Tuesday, the 15th ultimo, Fifteen Labouring Men fled from the Agricultural
Settlement at Castle Hill, after having committed many acts of violence and atrocity.
They at first forcibly entered the dwelling house of M. DECLAMB, which they ransacked,
and stripped of many articles of plate, wearing apparel, some fire and side-arms,
provisions, spirituous and vinous liquors, a quantity of which they drank or wasted in
the house. They next proceeded to the farm houses of Bradley and Bean, at Balkham
Hills. Mrs. Bradley's servant man they wantonly and inhumanly discharged a pistol
at, the contents of which have so shattered his face as to render him a ghastly spectacle,
in all probability, during the remainder of his life. In Mrs. Bean's house they gave a-
loose to sensuality, equally brutal and unmanly. Resistance was of no avail, for their
rapacity was unbridled. Numerous other delinquencies were perpetrated by this licentious banditti,
whose ravages, however, could not long escape the certain tread of Justice.
Two of the depredators were taken into custody upon the second day after their flight
near the Hawkesbury road, by Mr. JAMIESON, junior, assisted by A. Thomson, Chief Constable at Hawesbury,
and a party of the Military, who had been dispatched in pursuit of them.
Upon these men were found several articles of property that had been taken from the dwelling-house of Mr. Declamb;
as were also two muskets. On the day following they underwent an Examination before a
Magistrate, by whom they were fully committed, and sent to Sydney under an escort.
On the 23d ultimo, Eleven more of the desperadoes were secured, by a party of the Military and Constables,
between Hawkesbury and the Mountains. Information had been given of their haunt by a body of natives, shortly after they had broke into the
house of a settler, where they had stopped to grind a quantity of wheat at a steel mill, having previously secured the family,
and afterwards stripped the house of all such provision as they could conveniently carry off, together with two stands of arms.
They were also taken before a Magistrate, fully committed, and brought to Sydney under a sufficient guard.
Justice to the Prisoners at large in the Colony requires that we should here observe,
that this banditti is entirely composed of Irish prisoners, brought by the Hercules and Atlas.

NB. The rape victim was Rose Bean, the 17 year old daughter of James and Betty Bean of Toongabbie. The rape was perpetrated at the Bean home, reportedly in front of her mother. Rose would marry Thomas Dunn the following year, and their daughter Margaret married Laurence Butler’s son Walter Butler in 1825.
Her Daughter, Rose, was one of the rape victims of the convicts involved in the Castle Hill uprising in Feb 1803991
Also know as Betsy or Betty.
