"The Eureka Stockade"

I was in the
guard which took him to the Camp. The prisoner did not get away, I know.
I saw him a prisoner in the Camp about five o'clock."
Cross examined by Mr. Ireland:--
"I do not know that the prisoner did not escape on his way from the
stockade to the lock-up."
ROBERT TULLY, sworn and examined:--
"He was inside the stockade on the Sunday morning: saw the prisoner there
armed with a pike; he was in the act of running away; saw him twice in the
stockade; was sure the prisoner is the man."
Cross examined by Mr. Ireland:--
"Never saw the man before this; he was running in company with two other
men; it was very early in the morning; it was some time after the stockade
was taken that he was arrested; the firing then had not wholly ceased."
Private DON-SYN-GORE, drilled by sergeant HAG.
Trooper CON(S)CRIT-BAD-DOG, mobbed by Bob-tulip.
The pair of you are far below the ebb of our Neopolitan Lazzaroni!
Why did you not consult with spy Goodenough?
This having closed the case for the Crown, the Court adjourned at
half-past two.

Viri Probi, Spes Mea In Vobis; Nam Fides Nostra In Deo Optimo Maximo.

To be serious. I am a Catholic, born of an old Roman family, whose honour
never was questioned; I hereby assert before God and man, that previous to

and 8, Tully.
