Where did Captain Moonlight get the name from?
Captain Moonlite, aka Captain Moonlight, aka Andrew George Scott, was originally a preacher at the small Victorian town of Egerton. An admirer of Ned Kelly, he made a sudden decision to become a bushranger. His first target was the manager of the Egerton Bank, who was fully aware of Scott's identity. Scott tied him up, with orders to tell police he had been robbed by Captain Moonlight. It is believed that the choice of name was a spur-of-the-moment decision based upon the robbery occurring in the middle of the night, under moonlight.
What did Captain Moonlight do?
Captain Moonlite, aka Captain Moonlight, aka Andrew George Scott, was an Australian bushranger during the 1870s and 1880s. Prior to becoming a bushranger, he was a preacher at the small Victorian town of Egerton, but his misguided admiration for Ned Kelly caused him to decide to become a bushranger. His first target was the manager of the Egerton Bank, who was fully aware of Scott's identity. Scott tied him up, with orders to tell police he had been robbed by Captain Moonlight. It is believed that the choice of name was a spur-of-the-moment decision based upon the robbery occurring in the middle of the night, under moonlight. At one stage, Moonlight was caught and imprisoned in Ballarat, but upon his escape, he resumed bushranging. He was caught again, sentenced to prison again, and finally released in 1879 - whereupon he promptly formed a gang and resumed bushranging. He was finally caught when he and and his gang held up a farmhouse at Wantabadgery and held numerous people hostage. One man escaped and alerted the police. Nine policemen surrounded the farmhouse, and during the gun battle that ensued, one policeman and two of Captain Moonlight's gang were killed. Moonlight was captured, tried and hanged.
