Wellshot Station was selected as one, to encourage private enterprise, to try for water at great depths. When at Winton, early in 1889, I was handed a telegram from Mr.
Henderson, the Hydraulic Engineer, advising me that the sinking of the well at Wellshot had to be abandoned, and as carriers were not procurable at Barcaldine to take the plant to Winton, it had been decided to send it to Kensington Downs. I immediately called a public meeting, and laid the matter before it. The meeting decided that I should go to Barcaldine the following morning.
