After the '''[[KellyGang|KellyGang]]''' had secured Const [[Devine|Devine]] and [[Const Richards|Richards]] at the police station they came into Jerilderie and 'booked' into the Royal.
My name is '''Charlie Cox''' and I am the publican of the Royal Hotel. At approximately 11am on Monday 10 February 1879 Const Richards introduced me to a group of men dressed in police uniform. They entered the front bar which at that time was located in the single-storey section of the hotel. It sill exists as does the travellers' accommodation at the rear.
One of them said that he was Ned [[Ned Kelly|Kelly]] and that he wanted some rooms while he robbed the bank. He made it clear that he did not want to hurt anyone. Joe Byrne was with him.
Dan Kelly and Steve Hart had entered the rear yard of the hotel premises on horseback. They then rounded up customers and employees and took them into the parlour. As people came they were arrested by the boys and taken into the hotel.
