| Not a lot is known about Hartley at this stage other than he was a farm hand on Orange Grove near Bulgandramine most of his working life. On 27th September 1905 he was tried and sentenced to three years gaol at Dubbo, NSW. The charge being "Unlawfully & Carnally knowing a girl under the age of 14 years". The sentence was served at Goulburn Gaol. It would seem that due to the events above Hartley was shunned by the rest of the family as most of his sister's descendants were unaware of his existence and those that had heard his name mentioned during their upbringing were lead to believe he died at a young age without family. His son Richard Cyrus rarely if ever spoke of him and refused to attend his funeral. Rumors have it that Hartley was very fond of his drink and was once dragged home by one leg (caught in the stirrup) after falling drunk from his horse. |

| SYDNEY, Wedmesday In a motoring accident on the Wangat Road, near Dungog (N.S.W) at dusk on Tuesday, a young woman was killed, two women were fatally injured, and two others were injured so severely that they are still unconscious. In the dusk of the evening a bullock team was hauling logs across a road, and was using a wire rope for the work. A motor car carrying seven persons, employees of the Bank Hotel, at Dungog approached, and the bullock-driver signalled the driver of the motorcar in an effort to acquaint him of the rope across the road. The motor driver failed to see the wire and as the last of the bullocks had crossed the road he believed that the way was clear. The wire caught the motorcar, stripped the windscreen, steering wheel and hood, and injured the passengers. Out of control the car ran along the road, then plunged over a bank, broke through a strong fence, and somersaulted down a 40feet slope, throwing the occupants in all directions. The bullock driver hurried away for assistance, and on the road he met Mr C Davidson, of Newcastle and Mr J Ray who were travelling from Wangat to Dungog. They hurried to the spot where the motor car had disappeared into the valley. They found that Miss Peggy Forte was dead. Four others Mrs Lowden, Ellen Gibbs, Phoebe Scudds, and Gertie Wilson, were unconscious. Miss Cissie Smith, who had been thrown against a fence, was only slightly injured, but the driver of the motor car, Leslie Robinson, was severely injured. It was a difficult task to carry the injured persons up the bank to the road but this was accomplished as speedily as possible. The injured were taken to the hospital at Dungog. Ellen Gibbs and Phoebe. Sudds died this morning. Mrs Louden and Gertie Wilson are still unconsious. Leslie Robinton is suffering from a broken pelvis and other injuries. The party had been on a visit to Chichester dam, and were on the way home when the accident happened. |
