G'day,
I may have said this before in this forum: My mother grew up in Grenfell in the 1920s & 30s. Grenfell, apart from being the birth place of Henry Lawson (and myself!) is right in Ben Hall country. She says that when she was growing up the locals generally believed that Ben Hall had been badly treated and that true justice did not prevail in his case.

Cheers,
Alan
