Extract from Victoria Police Gazette.

(From Gazette, 1889, page 419.)

William Ross is charged on warrant with false pretences on Alfred Brown, storekeeper, Tarwin Lower, on the sth instant. Description: Native of New Zealand, (supposed) twenty-six years of age, sft. 9in. or sft. lOin. high, medium build, sandy complexion, fairish brown to sandy beard whiskers and moustache, beard appeared to be clipped short under chin, whiskers curly under ears, grey or blue eyes, awkward slovenly gait; wore bluish sac-coat, brown-moleskin trousers, brown soft-felt hat, and red-cotton handkerchief tied in a sailors’ knot round neck, heavy boots. He is an inveterate talker, a heavy smoker, a good scholar, and writes a good hand. Did not carry a swag when he disappeared. Supposed to have gone to New Zealand on the 6th or 10th instant. Has friends in New Zealand. Offender owed the complainant an account of £3 Bs. l£d., and in payment of it gave a forged cheque for £l4 65., and received back £5 17s. cash and complainant’s cheque for £5, which he cashed in Melbourne on the 6th instant. Stated he was once a telegraph operator in New Zealand, and that his father was an auctioneer in Invercargill. There is no doubt but the offender knows Invercargill, as he talked of it and its people to a man in South Gippsland, who had spent some time in that town.—o. 10648, 20th December, 1889.

By Authority: Gkoror Didsbury, Government Printer, Well ington.—lß9o.
