Wigton Davy was chased from Gayndah to Maryborough in early 1860. On February 3rd 1860, Bligh captured a poor old man who had been a constant attendant in Maryborough, and against whom there never been a charge; John O'Connell Bligh chained him up, walked him through town and into the Bush where he beheaded the elder while he was still alive.

Wigton Davy would mention this event at his 1885 manslaughter trial.
