Who was I ?

I was a senior Western Australian man
I was a lawman of my country
I and my descendants are not caucasian
I performed an act of almost unbelievable endurance to save a friend
 
Hesekiel? He walked 250 kms in two and half days to get help for Pastor Strehlow, this happened in the NT but not sure where he was originally from.
 
That's the fella.

Walked from Hermansberg Mission to Alice Springs, sent a telegram to get help, waited for the reply and then walked back to the mission, :eek: all in 2 and a half days.
