What a character!
He had another brush with the law in the 1870's - he got caught up in some gun deals with the Fenian Brotherhood - puts that into a new perspective!

Need to find which gaol he did his bird in!

I have to say however once he married the nonsense seemed to stop.

Thanks again folks.

For future reference:
The Newcastle Journal (and many other historical newspapers) is available via both British Newspaper Archives site and Find My Past, both subscription sites.
Some libraries and archives offer free access via their computers (you'd need to check with the individual institution). From what I can see, the Newcastle Central Library allows free access to FindMyPast via their computers..
