'I was a bit older when we first learnt of Welfare, the boss of Aboriginal people. They were the ones who took away the pilyingpilying and sent them to Darwin: my sister, Ronnie's brothers (Jim Ryan and Ted Henry) — there were lots of them --Jarrangka was another. I know them all. Some pilyingpilying are still living in Darwin. I know the ones who got taken from their mothers. The police took them. The children would be hiding behind their mothers when they came.'
