@dbranno, you write: "As for the 'murder', both Kelly's account of the events at Stringybark Ck. and McIntyre's ORIGINAL statement next day tell essentially the same story. "

Could you possibly give us the lowdown on these events, as told by Ned Kelly and by McIntyre?

(Rude? I didn't find anything rude about dbranno's post. But Dead Horse's ad hominem assumption that someone who disagrees with him is a supporter of Ireland, and that this is something to be ashamed of: that's rude.)
