The Towell Case at Salisbury Arms Inn Inquest

An 1845 inquiry at the Salisbury Arms Inn, before Horatio Waddington and others, investigated the property of the late John Towell the Quaker who was executed in March 1845 for murder. The commission detailed lands and personal effects, including shares in the Australian and New South Wales banks, and the widow Sarah Towell testified as attesting witness to a lease. The jury found all lands and personal property belonged to Towell at the time of his offence.
