How did John McDouall Stuart manage to find water when on his expeditions?
John McDouall Stuart, like many of the early Australian explorers, carried water for his initial forays into the desert. During these expeditions, he recorded where the permanent waterholes were, and used them later to supplement the supplies he carried. He actually had a few confrontations with the desert Aborigines over his use of their waterholes.
How did John McDouall Stuart react towards the aborigines?
John McDouall Stuart had a policy of never firing on the Aborigines first. He respected the indigenous people, and sought friendly relations whenever he could. Admittedly, at times he was forced by hostile natives to retreat from his mission to cross the continent - but he never fired first. However, like many Europeans, he held strong Christian beliefs: as he raised the Union Jack in central Australia, he hoped it would be a sign to the Aborigines that "the dawn of Christianity" had begun in Australia, and that the Europeans would be able to enlighten the native people.
