B. T. Finniss's 1864 expedition, and one of his few supporters. During this expedition he shot dead an Aboriginal man, for which he was recalled to Adelaide to stand trial, later exonerated. He returned to the Territory on
George Goyder's 1869 survey expedition to Port Darwin. On 24 May he and a companion William Guy were attacked by aborigines, both being wounded by spears. Bennett died 28 May 1869 after Dr. Peel removed, under chloroform, a section of spear which had penetrated a lung. The wound was sutured but the case considered hopeless by Peel, and given a morphine draught. Bennett and Guy were on a working party with surveyor
Richard Randall Knuckey at
Fred's Pass on the
Adelaide River on 24 May 1869. They had been left alone in the camp to do their drafting work when the attack occurred. Bennett had been on good terms with them previously and was working on an atlas of Wuna (
Wulna) placenames. He was interred near the top of Fort Hill overlooking the harbour - the first white man to be buried in Darwin. Guy completely recovered from his wounds. • Nathaniel William Ogle Bennett (c. 1850 – 26 August 1882), an officer with H. M.
