Perm and the girl were lodged in Kcmpsey lock-up. Perm was. chained by McUlelland with wilful nnudtr. He lephsd that the cli.irge should bo implicit ion in crime.

As aheady wt ded l»v Cattiey, Perm says llioy tried to loach Ameiica, where they expected they would be sate fiomdisooxeiy, but meeting h\e or -,i v ->i i \eie gales eventu ally turned back and succeeded in fetchi.-ig the New South Wales coast. Perm contains Uaff ley's statement that they came a-, far south as Sydney Heads?, but iinding too many eiaft about they went nortlnvaids again m the hope <»f effecting a landing on the (^uce'i -land coast. Whether they weie afterwards wrecked, or landed and wrecked the cutti i afterwaids, Perm did not say, but according to his account he and Calf rey commenced to quaucl almost immediately after they set sail, ovci the girl. Catfrey, on the principle that dead people tell no tales, wanted to shoot t«i. tee ( ri.iham, but Perm, between whom and the girl there appeals to exiit a stiong affection, objected, and saved hei. After then, a dread of minder being e\e.r present, Perm and the sirl came to an arrangement by which one of them always remained awake while the other slept, Perm, throughout the voyage, keeping his loaded revolver ready to hand in the e\ent of any cruel act on the pait of Cat Fie) After they landed near Bellinger Ki\er, C.'ifiey, Perm, and the girl camped togethei for a foitnight, the same quairels about the gill which had taken place on boaid being continued on shoie, Calfiey arguing that it was necessaiy for their safety that she should be put out of Uie way. At last, on the fourteenth day, Caffrev asked Perm to tro tor a walk with him, as he had something particular to talk to him about. Perm made up his mind that Catfroy's only object was to get him away fiorn (Jrace Graham into the bush and shoot him, and on that account he lefused to stir from where he was. High word-, followed, which culminated in Caffiey parting company with them.
