A pennant with the letter C the Fenian flag and the American flag are also flying. <br /> <br /> The police boat is in hot pursuit and the British steamship "Georgette" is steaming in from a distance. Among the Fenians freed in this effort was John Boyle O'Reilly who became a leading citizen in Boston and was later to edit the 'Boston Pilot'. <br /> <br /> Captain George Anthony an American whaling captain out of New Bedford Massachusetts recruited a crew for this mission and set sail for Western Australia where two Fenian agents John Breslin and Tom Desmond had already established themselves with aliases. With several delays the day for the escape was set for the 17th of April when most of the convict garrison was distracted by watching the Perth Yacht Club regatta.<br /> <br /> Captain Anthony who refused to surrender the escaped prisoners to the British later sold his story to Zephaniah W. Pease who published the account in 'The Catalpa Expedition'.

187723994Dublin: The Central Tenants' Defense Committee 1877. First printing. Hardcover. Good overall. The trial of returned convict John Sarsfield Casey an activist defender of Irish tenant farmers who earlier in his career wrote letters to Fenian newspapers as 'The Galtee Boy' which were used in his 1865 trial to support a charge of treason and a sentence of transportation to Australia. Casey was one of the 62 Fenians transported to Western Australia. He was granted a free pardon in 1869 and returned to Dublin in 1870.<br /> <br /> The 1877 trial recorded here was brought against Casey in Ireland by the agent for a wealthy land owner Nathaniel Buckley named Patten Smith Bridge. <br /> <br /> Bridge had imposed enormous rent increases on the Galtee Mountain tenant farmers; he alleged that Casey's articles to the press about the excessive rent increases had libeled him. Huge rents increases and the inability of farmers to pay resulted in whole families being thrown out of their homes; Casey knew these facts from personal experience as some of these tenants were his relatives. The trial lasted 8 days; Bridge's claim for damages against Casey was repudiated.<br /> <br /> 8vo vii 98pp. Deaccessed by the NY Association of the Bar Library with their stamp on the title page.

188327755Perth: Goverment Printer 1883. Robert Fairbairn the prominent 19th century Western Australian magistrate is the appointee to whom this "Minute" is aimed. He would soon be in charge of the Kimberley district and Wrenfordsley was at the time of this writing the Acting Governor of Western Australia. Unusually this is not recorded on either Trove or the State Library of Western Australia. <br /> <br /> The "minute" advises Mr. Fairbairn on his duties which will involve ".those of the Judge the Collector of Customs and the Registrar". and he advises "the Magistrate to take his own notes of the evidence and not to trust to his clerk." It is most interesting for the directions of caution in meting out punishment to the aboriginal community. "As the dispenser of justice to an uncivilised race it is all important that he should appear to act with judicial calmness and deliberation." Settlers were to be discouraged from taking the law into their own hands. And the statues prohibiting the supply of liquor to natives were to be strictly enforced so that "in the remote and . peaceful wilds of the Kimberley country the white man's curse will long remain unknown." An early reader has commented at the top "This is good" and has also highlighted various sections of interest. <br /> <br /> At the time of this writing Wrenfordsley was Acting Governor of Western Australia however he had a long career in law as solicitor Attorney General of Jamaica Chief Justice of Western Australia and Chief Justice of Fiji. <br /> <br /> Foolscap folio 3pp black text on cream paper. At the end of page printed H.T. Wrenfordsley Administrator. 13-3-83." A notation on verso in ink "Notes of Wrenfordsley on Justice duties." Top edge ruffled small puncture top right pin mark two period folds overall very good. Goverment Printer unknown
