Event	Cause of death 12 February 1839 Campbelltown, New South Wales, Australia Note: According to one person, Nathaniel may have been murdered. According to one person, Nathaniel may have been murdered. To the Editor of The Australian. Sir â I believe it usual when an individual is found dead that an inquest is generally held to ascertain the cause. Such enquiry not having been made on the body of a man residing in this town, I beg to forward you the following particulars, for the truth of which I can vouch. The public house in Campbell Town, known by the name of the "Three Brothers,'' was kept by a man of the name of Boon. A few days since he left with his horse and cart to go to Sydney, and on his return he stopped at the Half-way House, on the Liverpool road, and having a great quantity of money with him, sat down and was gambling for some time. After leaving that house he was seen at Egleton's public house, (about five miles from Campbell Town), after which he was not seen alive by any person who knew him. Nothing, however, was known of his death until his horse and cart stopped at his door, when his lifeless body was discovered in it. Immediately upon this circumstance coming to the knowledge of Captain Allman, J.P., he proceeded to view the body, and discovered marks of violence about the throat, indicative of strangulation. There was not a single farthing discovered about him. Here, I am sorry to say, the enquiry ceased, and the body of the unfortunate man was buried. There cannot be a second opinion that the man came to his death by foul means, and I think that justice to his widow and large family demanded a little more exertion than was made to discover his murderers. There are many observations that might be made in this case, but as I trust that these observations will be the means of causing a fresh enquiry, I will, for the present, abstain, from making them. I remain, Sir, your's, &c., A SUBSCRIBER. Campbell Town, March 6, 1839. The Australian (Sydney, NSW : 1824 - 1848) Saturday 9 March 1839 p 4 Article A second article stated he died from the effects of intoxication: POLICE.âCAMPBELL TOWN. SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 23rd. Thomas Campbell, appeared on summons for allowing cards to be played on Monday the 11th instant, in a public house, near Irish Town, licensed in his name. But it appeared that Thomas Humphries and wife reside in the house, and Campbell lives at the Cowpastures. Humphries had been refused a license by the Liverpool Bench. Camphell residing at the Cowpastures, in the district of Campbell Town, a distance of about twenty miles from Irish Town, the chief constable withdrew the information, and said he would send the case to the chief constable of Liverpool, in whose district the license was granted. The reason of laying the information against Campbell arose out of an enquiry, touching the death of Nathaniel Boon, of Campbell Town, whose dead body was brought to his residence on the night of Tuesday the 12th instant. It was stated in evidence, that Boon had been in the house of Humphries on the Monday night previous to his death, and was playing cards with Charles Morris, the coach proprietor. Boon should have had about ÂŁ35 in cash, which he had received from Mr. Norton for hay sold, but no money was found on his person when he arrived in the cart dead at his own door. It appeared that he had died from the quantity of spirits he had drunk on his way from Sydney. He has left a wife and large family.
