Passage One
Jack Billabong is an aboriginal stockman. On Friday afternoon he was riding along the track towards the Hendersonhomestead. He was looking for a prize bull which had escaped from the Borrogee paddock. Hereached the hills and saw at once that he could not go further.
The fire in the forest had gone out. But the air was still full of smoke and fallen trees had blocked the track. Jack was just going to turn back when he saw something moving in the smoke. He waited. It was a girl on a horse, and she was riding towards him.
“There’s a badly burnt man at the homestead,” the girl shouted. “He saved my life. Please help me to save him.”
