It was a custom of the miners on moonlight nights to walk around the beach of Big Bay to catch wekas, which came out on the beach in hundreds and fed on the the insects among the seaweed. Wekas made a welcome change in the menu, as meat was brought to the bay in casks, salted in strong brine.
Mr Fisher went round the beach with Williamson's dog, which was expert at catching wekas. After going a distance he saw in the clear moonlight what he thought was a log being washed ashore. The dog ran forward to it and set up a mournful howling. Fisher came up and was horrified to see it was the body of a man. Dragging it out of the water he recognised it as that of Andrew Williamson. He left it beyond reach of the tide and hurried back to tell the other miners.
