HISTORY
1912 Witness: Neil Michelson, a shunter, spoke to meeting the woman and McPhie, and the woman asked him to direct her to the Railway Hotel, as a man was following her, and had threatened to rob her. He did not take much notice of the woman at the time, as she appeared excited. When she asked to be shown the way to the Railway Hotel she went on ahead of him along Eleanor-street. He was cutting off the corner near De Fratuas` boardinghouse, and the woman was then at the intersection of Eleanor-street and Forrest-street. He shouted to her to turn round there. He had got ahead, and looking behind him saw a man coming round the corner. The man caught up to the woman near the Public Buildings, and witness heard something like a cry, a blow, and a fall. He then saw the woman on the ground and the man running away. Going up to the woman he asked her what was wrong, and she said the man had taken her hand bag and her ticket to Day Dawn... (reference)
