Glenrowan
“The board appointed to inquire into and report upon the mode of distribution of the rewards offered by the Victorian and New South Wales Governments for the capture of the Kelly gang of outlaws have, as was intimated in a telegram which appeared in our last issue, sent in their report to the Chief Secretary.”
Joe Byrne holds a clandestine meeting with the Sherritts in this extract from the second chapter of Glenrowan.
The following information comes from the evidence of Henry Armstrong who had been one of the constables stationed with Aaron Sherritt the night he was murdered. It concerns the events leading up to the murder that may have played a role in Aaron’s death, and follows the narrative through the murder with the occasional detour. These are merely extracts from the evidence, rather than the evidence in its entirety in order to keep it as focused as possible on the subject of Aaron Sherritt.
