Charles Sturt held a great deal of respect for the Aborigines. He admired their skill and did not wish to interfere with their culture and traditions. It was because he made the effort to cultivate good relations with the Aborigines that his expedition party came out unscathed from a potential aboriginal attack when he was exploring the Murray River. Sturt upheld a policy of kindness towards the many Aboriginal tribes he encountered, readily sharing food and gifts with them. On 23 January 1830, whilst traversing the Murray, Sturt's party encountered a group of about six hundred hostile Aborigines on sandbanks of the river. His men loaded their guns and prepared for battle, but disaster was averted when an Aborigine whom Sturt had befriended days earlier appeared from the bushes and intervened.
