J.W. Thomas (captain commander of troops, Ballarat) reported in an official despatch dated 3rd of December 1854 ‘the number of prisoners brought in were 125. A few of them, however, I ordered to be released, as I was not satisfied they had been in the engagement,although they were in the immediate neighbourhood. Several have been taken since on the charge of insurrection, which makes the number now in custody 114.”
At the Police Court hearings held between the 9th and 11th of December 57 prisoners were brought before His Honor Mr Sturt on charges relating to the rebellion. 출장마사지
