The Sydney Gazette and New South Wales Advertiser of 13 Nov 1830 reported:
'HIGHWAY ROBBERIES.
There instances have just been made known to us, of the audacious career still pursued by Walmsley and Webber.
On the day after their attack upon Mr. Mowatt, reported in a late number, as Mr. Thomas Pye was proceeding on horseback from his residence at Seven Hills to Parramatta, he was stopped by the
same marauders, Webber calling out that if he attempted to go on they would blow out his brains. Mr. Pye, however, courageously put spurs to his horse, and set off at full gallop, when Webber, true to his threat, fired at him, and had very nearly
taken a fatal aim, the ball passing through Mr. P's jacket, waistcoat, and shirt, and grazing his thigh. Webber, the moment he had discharged his piece, called out, " I've settled you at last !" Mr. Pye escaped without further injury.
