WARWICK : SATURDAY, JULY 3, 1880.
THE following is the account of the final
scene of the capture of the Kelly gang :– The
siege of the hotel was kept up all Monday fore-
noon and until 3 o'clock in the afternoon, when
the police, who were then acting under the
direction of Superintendent Sadlier, deter-
mined to take a decisive step. Accordingly,
at quarter past 3 o'olock senior constable
Johnston, of Violet Town, ran up to the gate
of the hotel with a large bundle of straw. He
advanced under cover of a continuous fire
from his comrades directed at the doors and
windows of the building. Having ignited the
straw, he retired, his retreat being protected
by a fire similar to that which covered his
advance. The straw soon flared up and set
the house on fire. After a short time the
flames were seen flickering through the bullet
holes in the roof. As the fire travelled rapidly,
all eyes were turned on the burning building,
silence being only broken by tbe crackling of
the flames. The circle of besiegers now be-
gan to close in rapidly on the house, some
