We ought to add that the name John Joseph Sullivan is not that which pri soner used at Korong, where he always went by the name of Thomas Sullivan. From further information from auother source, we find that Sullivan states that he had £IOO with him when he landed at Hokitika, and the manner in which, according to his own account, he became connected with the Burgess and Levy gang is a singular one. He had been gratifying his propensity for gambling in Hokitika when one of the gang picked his pocket. Among the money stolen was a bent half sovereign, and he laid an informa tion against the thief. Next day, Burgess came to him and advised him to drop the prosecution. He refused; but on a subsequent occasion, while half intoxicated by Burgess and his companions,. Sullivan consented not to appear against the man, and on the Court day Burgess and Kelly took him out in a boat. The case was ad journed for his evidence, and the police were in search of him. This was some time in April last, soon after he landed in Hokitika. Afterwards, as we understand it, he fraternised with the gang; and the first work he was set to do, was to stand at the front of a store, near the water in Hokitika, we believe, while Burgess ran in without his hat, and in haste told the storekeeper that a man was drowning and ran off followed by the store-keeper, during whose absence Kelly entered the place by the back door, and stole the man's cash box. Then followed the Okarita robbery, but how Sullivan participated in that we do not know. That he was con cerned in the murder of Dobson, is known, and that Fox, the gold buyer was warned betimes, is also known. It appears that Fox; went up with notes to buy gold, and that the assas sins knew this, but preferred to wait for his return with the gold which was better than the notes. Fox having communicated with the police at the Twelve Mile, came down, and as he passed the spot where he was told the ambush was lying, he swung his revol ver. A short distance behind him came five armed policemen, and so the man escaped. This was after the murder of poor Dobson.
