From the Maitland Mercury rerport:
The macabre and brutal murder of a blacksmith whose remains were burnt and his
bones pounded between two stones has lurked in Paterson’s history since the
1840s.

on May, 22, 1845, at Martins Creek, has largely been untold.
Dr Archer will tell the story of Mr Muldoon’s tragic demise during the annual
Paterson Historic Town Walk on March 11.
