Wylie (person)

Wylie was the Aboriginal companion who travelled with Edward John Eyre across the Nullarbor Plain in 1840-1841. When the party almost ran out of supplies and water, Wylie chose to stay with Eyre when the other aborigines attacked and murdered John Baxter and left with most of the remaining supplies and firearms.
