This free-space page documents the newspaper articles from January 1896 to March 1896 documenting the arrest, trial and conviction of William James Webber and his brother John "Gus" Webber in 1896.
There was quite a number of articles written on the deed, so I created this page to collect them all and link them for future reference.
