== Links to the KellyGang ==
'''Sebastopol Cavalcade''' '''7/11/1878''' I was at the Sebastopol cavalcade ([[Royal Commission report day 18 page 17|RC5723]])
I took part in the hunt for the '''KellyGang''' through the [[Warby Ranges|Warby Ranges]] soon after the Mansfield Murders . When [[Ned Kelly|Ned Kelly]] was being taken back to Beechworth for his committal after the Glenrowan siege he mentioned that ' I can tell you every place his party camped in the Warby ranges, and who used to get up the horses.' According to Const [[Const Faulkiner|Faulkiner]]'s evidence to the royal Commission that was me.([[Royal Commission report day 18 page 10|RC5498]])
I met SConst [[Johnston|Johnson]] after he came back from Sebastopol([[Royal Commission report day 18 page 10|RC5507]]) See also ([[Royal Commission report day 18 page 17|RC5723]])
'''Photograph''' '''Euroa Robbery 10/12/1878''' Sup Hare especially picked a group of really good horses and gave them to the best riders amongst the police, Const [[Const William Canny|Canny]], [[Const Faulkiner|Falkner]], and myself. ([[Royal Commission report day 7 page 4|RC1427]])
I used to get up early to get the horses ready. ([[Royal Commission report day 18 page 9|RC5489]])
Sup Hare's view of me ([[The Last of the Bushrangers Chapter 9 page 2|FH]])
'''[[Whorouly (2)|Whoroughly]] Race meeting 3/1879''' I attended the race meeting at Whoroughly with other police in an attempt to try and catch the '''KellyGang'''. I did not know that area. I set up an under-and-over table and dice and to make bets on the races. I acted as a central point for the other police. Mr [[Hare|Hare]] just rode around the place in a buggy ([[Royal Commission report day 7 page 1|RC1362]])
During a search party with Sup [[Hare|Hare]], and Consts [[Const William Canny|Canny]] and [[Const Faulkiner|Faulkiner]], we found three or four saddles hanging up at a place near the Lloyd's home that had been recently uses, noticing they had surcingles on made by a saddler at Wangaratta. The person who occupied the place was a man with one hand, a bachelor, which clearly showed that he had not a use for four saddles. When the '''KellyGang''' was captured, and the horses and saddles brought to Benalla, Faulkiner identified those saddles as the ones we had seen hanging up in the house near Lloyd's. ([[Royal Commission report day 18 page 2|RC5327]])see also ([[Royal Commission report day 18 page 2|RC5312]])([[The Last of the Bushrangers Chapter 8 page 5|FH]])
'''Autum 1879''' In about the second week in [[events79-2_4Jerilderie Robbery|April 1879]] I was with Sup [[Hare|Hare]] and a search party in the Warby Ranges. We came very close to the '''KellyGang''' ([[Royal Commission report day 6 page 8|RC1290]]) '''Glenrowan Siege 28/6/1880'''
I was not at the siege '''Royal Commission''' I was not called to give evidence to the Royal Commission '''Early Service''' '''Later Service'''
