Ambrose Kelly and William Keating write on behalf of the subscribers of Seven Mile, Grenfell, to a fund supporting the cause of the Freeman's Journal in the case being prosecuted by the Premier and Attorney General James Martin.
The subscribers declare that 'even with our last sixpence we will show the tyrant Premier that Irishmen will not be trampled on with impunity; and without venture we here predict ... that when the administration of Martin and Co. will be handed down to posterity with scorn, the spirit that now animates the Freeman's Journal will be held sacred in the heart of every Catholic in New South Wales, and in the honor and esteem of all justice-loving men.'
