'''Early years''' I had very close links with the Kelly family was born [[Beveridge|Beveridge]] near where the [[Mrs Ellen Kelly|Kellys]] lived. My Mother was related to [[John (Red) Kelly|Red Kelly]]. '''Teenage years''' '''First run in with the law''' '''Fitzpatrick Incident 15/04/1878''' On this morning [[Ned Kelly|Ned Kelly]] came by my farm at Lake [[Lake Rowan|Rowan]] and he sold me a horse. Later I spent some time with William [[William Skillion|Skillion]]. Later in the day we went and saw Frank [[Frank Harty|Harty]] at [[Winton|Winton]]. After that we went to Skillion's place and heard about the incident with [[15-04-78 Fitzgerald incident|Fitzpatrick]] Mrs [[Kelly Home|Kelly's place]]. Things were over before we arrived and we did not see Fitzpatrick.

I was called by the defence team at Mrs Kelly's trial in Beechworth in October [[17/4-4/10/78 Events|1878]]. I told the court that Skillion had been with me for most of the day. The prosecution twisted my evidence. All they wanted to talk about was the fact that Mrs [[Mrs Ellen Kelly|Kelly]] was my aunt and that I had bought a horse from Ned Kelly that very morning ][[The Complete Inner History of the KellyGang and their Pursuers (15)|JJK]])

'''Mansfield Murders 26/10/1878''' '''Escape north''' The '''KellyGang''' dropped in to see me while they were in the [[Wombat ranges|Wombat Ranges]] in about 7/11/[[ev78-10--4Mansfield Murders|1878]].

After coming across the ranges on 8/11 Const [[Johnston|Johnson]] saw the stockyard and found that horses had been there recently. He noticed that some of the horses shod and some unshod. The police then followed the '''KellyGang''' for about 20 miles. The boys got away safely. ([[Royal Commission report day 33 page 6|RC12361]])

'''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 myself. He took that action under the Felons Apprehension Act, the outlawry Act. Most of the sympathizers were held in [[Beechworth Gaol|Beechworth gaol]].

I was arrested near [[Lake Rowan|at Lake Rowan]] by ... At first the police arrested my [[Jack Ryan (2)|Jack]] by mistake. ([[The Argus at KellyGang 6/1/1879 (2)|Argus6/1/79]]) ([[Daniel Clancey|OMA7/1/79]])

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)|OMA11/2/79]]) ([[The Ovens and Murray Advertiser 18/2/1879 (2)|OMA18/2/79]])

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'''

There was a petition for my release ([[The Ovens and Murray Advertiser 24/1/1879|OMA24/1/1879]])

I broke my leg in gaol. They eventually released me. ([[The Argus at KellyGang 26/2/1879|Argus26/2/79]]) ([[The Ovens and Murray Advertiser 27/2/1879|OMA27/2/1879]]) ([[The Complete Inner History of the KellyGang and their Pursuers (36)|JJK]])

'''Jerilderie Robbery 10/2/1879''' '''Later in 1879''' '''Early in 1880''' '''Death of Aaron Sherritt 26/6/1880''' '''Glenrowan Siege 28/6/1880''' It is likely that I arrived at the [[ev80-06-28Glenrowan|siege]] of Glenrowan with [[Ned Kelly|Ned Kelly]] on the evening of Saturday 26/6/1880 with my brother [[Jack Ryan (2)|Jack]].
