On 29 December 1900, Robert Muirhead, a Northern Lighthouse Board (NLB) superintendent, arrived to conduct an official investigation into the incident of three missing Keepers.
Muirhead had originally recruited all three of the missing men and knew them personally.
He examined the clothing left behind in the lighthouse and concluded that Ducat and Marshall had gone down to the western landing stage, and that McArthur (the 'Occasional') had left the lighthouse during heavy rain in his shirt sleeves.
He noted that whoever left the light last and unattended was in breach of NLB rules. He also noted that some of the damage to the west landing was "difficult to believe unless actually seen".
So, what did happen to the three men? A 100 plus year old mystery that still has no answers today.
