{As part of a long description of an execution that took place in Adelaide}
...The execution took place outside the great gateway, and the arrangements of the sombre scaffold displayed a sad completeness, some time before the hour of punishment had arrived. On each side appeared a guard of infantry from the 11th Regiment; in front, a single file of the metropolitan police force, under the command of Captain Litchfield ; and around were stationed the mounted police, under the command of Captain Tolmer, all in full parade dress and equipment.
