I arrived at Wangaratta yesterday evening, and was surprised to find you gone. I followed you here to learn your object and plans, because I have been placed in charge of this case, and have been made responsible for all steps taken and result. I must return to Wangaratta and to Benalla, if possible, to-night. I cannot ascertain your object and plans, excepting that I find your men are not supplied with hobbles, billy cans, &c., which show that you do not anticipate camping out. ......... Three parties besides yours are now out under my knowledge. Communicate with me by telegraph at every opportunity. Don't waste your strength fruitlessly until you get further orders. Ever yours, C. H. [[Nicolson|NICOLSON]]. " ([[Royal Commission report day 52 page 4|RC17525]])
At about 2am on [[ev78-10--4Mansfield Murders|4/11/1878]] Const [[Const Twomey|Twomey]] came to see me in [[Wangaratta|Wangaratta]] and told me about a possible citing of the '''KellyGang''' early the day before. ([[Royal Commission report day 51 page 17|RC17406]]) ([[Royal Commission report day 51 page 14|RC17328]]) ([[Royal Commission report day 51 page 17|RC17418]]) ([[The True Story of the KellyGang of Bushrangers Chapter 6 page 2|CHC]]) ([[The Complete Inner History of the KellyGang and their Pursuers (29)|JJK]])
I sent him off with Const [[Hayes|Hayes]] to see Mrs Delaney and her 2 sons [[John Delaney|John]] and [[Daniel Delaney|Daniel]] made the citing and he returned to see me at 5.45am ([[Royal Commission report day 51 page 17|RC17412]])
On 5/11/1878 I stayed at home ([[Royal Commission report day 51 page 14|RC17337]])
'''Warby Ranges search party''' 6'''/11/1878''' I took a lot of complaint from people over this incident. ([[The True Story of the KellyGang of Bushrangers Chapter 7 page 4|CHC]])
The reflections appear to amount to this, as far as I can judge that I was not there immediately when I was required; that is what they state. Now I had been so much worked for several days before that that I was simply overdone. ([[Royal Commission report day 51 page 11|RC17281]])
