Photograph '''Escape north''' Ass [[Nicolson|Nicolson]] led a search party after the '''KellyGang''' past our place soon after the deaths of the police at Stringy Bark Creek ([[Royal Commission report day 3 page 1|RC676]])

Information was given to [[Laing|Mr Laing]] by one of his employees that the '''KellyGang''' had been seen by my boys near the One Mile Bridge on [[ev78-10--4Mansfield Murders|3/11/1878]]. We lived near the [[Wangaratta|Wangaratta]] railway station. The story given by the platelayer was that that morning, at four o'clock, the '''KellyGang''', instead of going through the railway gate, had swam the One-mile Creek, and crossed by the back of the hospital, behind our house; and that we recognized the '''KellyGang''' and that they were armed. ([[Royal Commission report day 39 page 1|RC13960]])

My son John told the police that I called him up at 4 am on 3/11/1878 to see if his horse was being taken away. He looked out and saw four mounted men with hobbles, one saddler driving several horses at a rapid pace through One-mile Creek, towards Peechelba road. They may have gone to Warby ranges"([[Royal Commission report day 51 page 12|RC17310]]) see also([[Royal Commission report day 51 page 12|RC17307]])
