Excerpt from Some Account of the Wars, Extirpation, Habits, &C., Of the Native Tribes of Tasmania
A few months before this last-named date, the first Governor of Tasmania (colonel Collins) arrived here from Port Phillip, and fixed himself at Hobart Town, but without removing Bowen's little party from Risdon, which remained there under the independent command of that officer, who was superseded by the Governor five days after the skirmish, but not in consequence of it, as he had nothing to do with'it.
