It's a Fair Cop Guv

Here is another photo taken at Tocal Homestead's Peek into the Past day on Sunday.

You can see a very sad looking bushranger being captured by the policeman.

Fred Ward aka Captain Thunderbolt was a notorious bushranger in this area in the 1800s and he lived and worked at Tocal before he began his wayward life. In fact if you look at the building behind these two gentlemen, this is where Thunderbolt lived while working as a stockman and horsebreaker.
Great pair

The policeman appears to be too gentlemanly for the rough days of that age. A lovely capture of the bad and the good together.

Their clothing is so authentic, they really got into the spirit of the affair, didn’t they?

Greg, the policeman in this photo has written a book about bushrangers and I had a really interesting chat to him. While I was talking to him the bushranger absconded, but I found him again later in the kitchen at Tocal House as you will see in today's photo.

Sorry I am a bit absent from 365 at the moment, we are having a very busy week. I will catch up when I can.
