I forgot to include the transcripts 31 Dec 1856 ARGUS "Jane Thornton: a woman who looked as if she had once been a respectable and who carried a child in her arms was charged with vagrancy. She was found lying in a case in a state of great apparent destitution. She said that she had lately come from Castlemaine and was footsore and miserable. The bench promised to give her a letter to the Immigrant's Home Committee." AND 31 Dec 1856 Port Phillip Herald "Jane Thornton was found at a late hour sleeping with her two children in an old case. She declares she is a fresh arrival from Castlemaine and had been deserted by her husband about twelve months ago. On being brought before the Court, she stated that she was in bad health, and utterly unable to work, whereupon the resident magistate remanded her with the view of preparing her admission to the Immigants Home" I could find no record in The Age. nne
