Winton

Beginnings

Importance of David Lindsay

I called myself a farmer and storekeeper. Mary Anne (nee Green ) was my wife.

I had a place that was called 'Lindsay's Halfway House' and 'Lindsay's Public House, Winton' (RC12844).

Ned Kelly apparently accused me of being a police agent, probably because I assisted Const Fitzpatrick after he had been shot by Kelly (Argus22/5/78) Photograph

What was Lindsay's Shanty like in the late 1870s

Links to the KellyGang

Constable Fitzpatrick dropped into my shanty on the way to arrest the Kellys on 15/4/1878. (see RC12844)

By about 10pm he was back at my place after being shot by Ned Kelly. I looked after Fizpatrick like any other customer and rebandaged his hand when he was wounded. I also helped him get home to Benalla. He was not drunk.

On about 9 October 1878 I gave evidence in Beechworth at the trial of Mrs Kelly, Skillion and Williamson. I told the court what Fitzpatrick told me. Ned Kelly mentioned me in his Cameron Letter. See how he described me in the letter:

'..... is a Shanty Keeper having no licence and is liable to a heavy fine and keeps a book of information for the police and his character needs no comment for he is capable of rendering Fitzpatrick any assistance he required for a conviction as he could be broke any time Fitzpatrick chose to inform on him....'
