On Saturday the Police Commission left Benalla, and went to [[Glenrowan|Glenrowan]] by way of [[Greta|Greta]]. They stayed for a short time at the residence of [[Kelly Home|Mrs Kelly]], mother of the two outlaws of that name and listened to statements reflecting on the police that she and her daughters Grace and Kate made. At Glenrowan they were met by several police officers and constables who were present at the affair which took place there nearly a year ago, and who fought the battle over again. One of the witnesses examined at Glenrowan was Reardon, the railway labourer, who was compelled by the outlaws to assist in breaking the railway line, and who was detained in the hotel with the other civilians. He alleged, inler alia that several attempts made by the prisoners to get away from the hotel after the outlaws had permitted them to go, were stopped by the heavy firing from the police, which was continued as long as they showed themselves outside, and that he did not hear the police calling on the innocent persons to come out until half past 9 o'clock on the Monday morning. The commission sits in Melbourne to morrow.
