Foss, R.M., held an inquest at Millie Millie, on the Gascoyne, upon the remains of the late Robert Grundy, which were found near Millie Millie on the 14th March last. After having viewed the remains and heard the evidence, the jury returned the following verdict: — "That the deceased, Robert Grundy, was murdered near Millie Millie on or about the 10th March, 1884, by the aboriginal natives Mowaraba, alias "Big headed Harry," and Gnalbee." The former native was afterwards brought up before the Resident Magistrate upon the charge of wilful murder, when he was remanded for eight days.

200 | Once previously convicted of Poaching Court Report from the Leicestershire Mercury: John Smith (26) and Joseph Isom (26) were charged with stealing, the 18th of Oct., 1848, at Stapleford, two geese and strainer, the property of Anthony Hart. Mr. Vaughan conducted the case. William Hart, son of the prosecutor, deposed that on the 17th of October, he counted his father's geese, and there were 23 when secured for the night. The next morning two were missing : there was blood on the road to Melton, and following that direction heads and four feet and skins and feathers of geese were found about 400 yards from where the geese were kept. One of the heads found was like that of one of the missing geese: could not speak to the other. Anthony Hart conrmed the statement of his son : and said he gave notice to Superintendent Condon. Sarah Dennis identified the stolen strainer: Alice Hart likewise identified it. Thomas Farell met the prisoners on the 18th October, a little after four in the morning, at Thorpe End, coining from the direction of Stapleford. Isom had something bulky under his smock, and asked witness, who was smoking a pipe, for a light, He walked as far as King Street with them, and was certain it was them. William Condon, from information received, went to prisoner's house, found them both bed at eleven in the morning: and found near the bed, a small pan, bason, and two plates, and the bones of a goose and handkerchief covered with blood. In a box he found the body of a goose, wrapped in the strainer produced. On comparing the boots found on the prisoners with the footmarks, Isom's corresponded exactly. The head of the goose given to witness by Mr. Hart corresponded with the body found in the box. There was blood on the prisoner's clothes. The prisoners' defence was that they " found" both strainer and goose. Immediately upon summing up, the jury found a verdict of Guilty. Seven years' transportation | SMITH, John (I1850)
