Murder? My James Mcgrath 1826 was sentenced to life transportation to NSW after he through a stone that killed a policeman he recieved a ticket of leave 10 yrs after his arrival. BUT when the court transcript in read,,,we see that th main witness was sent to Dublin in labourers clothing was accommodated *kept safe* and arrived in court in brand new city mans clothing,,,,,, the number of police in the mallee from one perspective was 13 the otherside counted but 7,,,James had no injuries prior to being pushed up the lane way but after the policeman was seen hit him he had a huge scar across his eyebrow and forehead..............which was not noted by the surgeon at the barracks *me thinks that more agricultural labourers were needed in the colony * all very interesting
