Glenrowan
The outline which I propose to give of the character of Edward Kelly is drawn entirely from phrenological data ; and as I have given proofs of the correctness of my phrenological judgment of more than one executed criminal, of whose character I had no previous knowledge before the examination of his head, I trust that the public, and especially the authorities of the law, may give due consideration to the character herein drawn in strict accordance with phrenological science.

“Edward Kelly was charged with horse stealing and receiving. The same jury heard the case with the exception of Thomas Merton, whose place was taken by Thomas Valentine Ferris. Mr F. Brown appeared for the prisoner.”
“Some time back, when quietly riding out in the vicinity of Moyhu Common, he chanced to espy Young Kelly rounding up some cattle and ordered him to desist from doing so, but not relishing the interference he became very insolent.
