Jerilderie Letter

HTML version

Ned Kelly is one of the few bushrangers to justify their actions in writing. The 56-page 'Letter' he tried to have published at Jerilderie in February 1879 appears to be the final working of a document first circulated at Euroa in December 1878. A copy was taken by the police, and publican John Hanlon made a 40-page transcription. Hanlon's copy is now part of the National Museum of Australia's collections. Kelly's words live on in Australia's National Historical Collection.
