"But, because there was no resident manager, like most missions and reserves of the time, Tweed Gooris were able to sneak on and off the island whenever they wanted, using their intimate knowledge of the moon and tides, and using their skills in watercraft and navigation. They were able to visit family and friends who lived in other camps at Fingal and Tweed." Indigenous Literary Fiction. Saunders, Mykaela. Yugarie in Words to Sing the World Alive. University of Queensland Press, 2024, p.141.
