   LifeSketch: The following article appeared in the "Dubbo Liberal and Macquarie Advocate" newspaper on Fri 4 Jan 1918, Page 2 and is transcribed verbatim. It was written on the occasion of the illness of Mr. Moore Neil Cornish Campbell, the son of Moore Neil Campbell, and who appears to have died soon after.ses his relatives much anxiety. Mr. Campbell is well-known in Dubbo, and acted as stock and station agent for some years in the Trangie district.t name opens the valves of my early memories, and being graciously allowed the opportunity, I will now transmit some of the historic reminiscences of the place and its people to paper, so that the residents of Dubbo, and particularly the early ones, who know and appreciate the worth of the Campbell family, will recall the many happy days spent round their hospitable abode, now, alas a comparative ruin - and its only representative prone on a bed of sickness. Further, I feel it my bounden duty, not only as a citizen, but as one who considers that honor is due to the early pioneers, as far as I can to pay a tribute to the indomitable pluck and enterprise by which they penetrated into these unknown wilds, and proved for the rising generation the potentialities of this new world, which destiny had ordained they should occupy. Such a one was the father of Mr. Moore Campbell, who also bore that name.rly days of the colony, the "Twenties." The facts I relate were told me by actors in the game - for game it was, fraught with all the dangers and vicissitudes pertaining to pioneering life in these strenuous days.nd Dalmahoy, with two sisters - stalwart sons and daughters of the Land o' Cakes, all endued with the fine characteristics and stamina of their race. It is needless to say they arrived with ample capital, and with introduction to the leading members of the government and the social community, as events will prove.n. Government House being the rendezvous of all people of family and standing in the settlement, and all well accredited arrivals from the old land. were not long in forming connections, and settling down into the commercial and pastoral occupations of the new country. For in the early thirties we find Mr. Moore Neil Campbell living in humble but comfortable bungalow at White Rock, near Bathurst, and with him his bride, the daughter of Major De Lisle, of the old 4th Regiment. Major De Lisle became afterwards the Governor of Norfolk Island, where Mrs. Lisle and daughter accompanied him. He also was one of those instrumental in establishing the freedom of this country, in co-operation with Wentworth and others, who brought about the abolition of the convict system. His widow, Mrs. De Lisle, died in Dubbo in the early sixties. When Mr. Campbell had been some years at Bathurst the colony was visited with a prolonged drought, a calamity much more severely felt in those days than now. fe, for which it was dependent on the arrival of teams from Sydney. Record tells that the whole of the old settled districts, were absolutely ravaged by the disastrous drought of 1833-5, and no doubt it was a time of great privation for all, and it became incumbent on the first settlers, if they would save their stock, to make infraction of the Government regulations, then prohibiting inland settlement, and seek further pastures in other and unknown localities. an 80 years ago, on the unknown, unmarked track of the first explorer, following the sinuous course of the Macquarie River, and overtake a caravan of three tired men and one woman, with their starving and dying animals, struggling on for dear life, overcoming one by one the many difficulties of that terrible season, till at last they reached the Land of Promise, destiny or fate had decreed. So Bunglegumbie became the home of the first Dubbo pioneer. commanding influence, that the large numbers of aboriginals were subdued, and kept docile without cruelty or inhumanity. On one occasion, when the blacks were getting troublesome, he appeared suddenly in Highland costume, and by a well-timed solo on the bagpipes sent them scattering in all directions, and never after had any trouble with them.t in new and trackless country, and their priceless services, losses and sacrifices in proving and developing the unknown, are hardly recorded, and are little recognised by those who now only see the well-formed roads and the smooth streets of ease, affluence, and money-making. So I contend that among the pioneers of this great country all honor is due to the Campbells of Bunglegumbie, and warm respect to him, the last surviving scion of that family, now lying prone in sickness. of three notable personages, who played a very active part in our early history, and are yet unheeded and unremembered.
