[[Jack Quinn Jnr|Jack]] Quinn and I, lived on the '''Black Range Creek'''
'''Fitzpatrick Incident 15/04/1878''' I was with Mrs [[Mrs Ellen Kelly|Kelly]] on the night of 16/4/1878 when Sgt [[Steele|Steele]] and his party came to arrest her. ([[Royal Commission report day 23 page 2|RC8821]]) '''Gold mining and making whiskey near Stringy Bark Creek'''
'''Mansfield Murders 26/10/1878''' I was in the Beechworth gaol undergoing a sentence of three months’ imprisonment for a violent assault on a man at the recent Benalla agricultural show. ([[The Argus at KellyGang 11/11/1878 (2)|Argus11/11/78]]) '''Escape north''' '''Euroa Robbery 10/12/1878''' '''Mass arrest of the sympathizers''' On 2/1/1879 Commissioner [[Standish|Standish]] ordered the arrest of about 20 [[Sympathizers|sympathizers]] including my self. He took that action under section 5 of the [[Felons Apprehension Act|Felons Apprehension Act]]. Most of the sympathizers were held in Beechworth goal.
I was arrested near [[Benalla|Benalla]] by ... He had been staying at [[Kelly Home|Mrs Kelly's]] old home at about this time ([[The Argus at KellyGang 4/1/1879 (2)|Argus4/1/79]]) ([[The Argus at KellyGang 6/1/1879|Argus6/1/79]]) ([[Daniel Clancey|OMA7/1/1879]])
We were held without ever being given a chance to defend them selves. We were remanded in custody for periods of 7 days. Only one of the sympathizers was effectively represented by a lawyer. The magistrates repeated the remands each week for over 3 months before the sympathizers were finally released. See ([[The Ovens and Murray Advertiser 11/2/1879 (2)|OMA11/2/1879]]) ([[The Ovens and Murray Advertiser 13/3/1879|OMA13/3/79]]) ([[The Argus at KellyGang 26/2/1879|Argus26/2/79]]) ([[The Ovens and Murray Advertiser 27/2/1879|OMA27/2/79]])
At the start, the arrests had public support in Melbourne but that turned into general contempt for the police. The mass arrests resulted in fewer people being prepared to assist the police or to supply information about the '''KellyGang'''
'''Jerilderie Robbery 10/2/1879''' I may have dealt with Jacob [[Jacob Wilson|Wilson]] for assisting the police ([[Royal Commission report day 16 page 10|RC4457]]) '''Later in 1879''' There was a report that on the night in June when Const [[Gascoigne|Gascoigne]] and his seach party came into the Strathbogie Ranges I got four bottles of brandy from a local pub ([[Royal Commission report day 25 page 3|RC9614]] ) '''Early in 1880''' Jacob [[Jacob Wilson|Wilson]] says that [[John Hart|John Hart]] and I gave him a hard time on [[events 1880-4/ 1880-6|3 April]]. I dont think that we did, but even so he was breaking the law. You can hear his version if that interests you; the ranting of an old man.
