Jandamarra began to ride with a policeman named Richardson. He was not employed as a police tracker but was paid by Richardson personally. Like other police Richardsonā€™s pocket was lined by the ration allowance that was paid to him for each day he held each prisoner. It was supposed to cover their food. The more prisoners, the longer it took to drag them in chains to the gaol, the less spent on feeding them meant more profit for the policeman.Ā
