Was it by the light of a full moon that Constable Edward Robb dug a hole in the yard of the Mount Larcom police station to bury a trove of documents he had been ordered to destroy?
To what did those papers speak? To police corruption that was rampant in the era of Joh Bjelke-Petersen – premier at the time Robb buried them, four decades ago? To the German settlers forced into internment camps during the world wars? Did they carry echoes of the massacres that took place here during the frontier wars? Or were they simply the quotidian accounts of a central Queensland railway town?
