'''Escape north''' On Sunday 27/10/[[ev78-10--4Mansfield Murders|1878]], the day after the Mansfield Murders, the '''[[KellyGang|KellyGang]]''' came around to see me. I gave them a change of clothing and a meal and they went on their way.

In late Octomer 1878 Ass Com [[Nicolson|Nicolson]] led a search party after the '''KellyGang''' to near our place and he suggested that police should watch '''Cart Road Gully''' that was near our place and [[MacBean|McBean's swamp]] ([[Royal Commission report day 3 page 1|RC 676]])
