It was stated, by the several witnesses, that the prisoner and deceased did not generally live on the most friendly terms - that, on the day laid in the indictment, the deceased used language of a violent and provoking nature towards her husband, accompanied by blows - that, in consequence of repeated furious attacks, he was obliged to repair to a back-house to work, in order to be out of her way - that, thither the deceased followed, and threw a stone at him, exclaiming, "you murdering villain, are you there?" - on which the prisoner rose from work, laid hold of the deceased's arm, and said, "my dear, you had better go into the house." This solicitation not being complied with, the prisoner attempted to force the deceased into the house, when she struck him a violent blow, which he resented by knocking her down, dragging her by the hair of the head along the yard, and, finally, throwing her on some logs. - This treatment was repeated, with the addition of certain opprobrious names, whereupon the deceased, seizing a tomahawk, ran towards the prisoner, and said, "you murdering villain, was I ever a w- to?" The deceased, after some difficulty, was deprived of the tomahawk, and went into another room, where plates, &c.

  • “A Veritable Augustus”: the Life of John Winthrop Hackett, Newspaper
    “A Veritable Augustus”: The Life of John Winthrop Hackett, Newspaper Proprietor, Politician and Philanthropist (1848-1916) by Alexander Collins B.A., Grad.Dip.Loc.Hist., MSc. Presented for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy of Murdoch University March 2007 I declare that this thesis is my own account of my research and contains as its main content work which has not been previously submitted for a degree at any tertiary education institution. ……………………….. Alexander Collins ABSTRACT Irish-born Sir John Winthrop Hackett was a man of restless energy who achieved substantial political authority and social standing by means of the power gained through his editorship and part-ownership of the West Australian newspaper and his position in parliament. He was a man with a mission who intended to be a successful businessman, sought to provide a range of cultural facilities and, finally, was the moving force in establishing a tertiary educational institution for the people of Western Australia. This thesis will argue that whatever Hackett attempted to achieve in Western Australia, his philosophy can be attributed to his Irish Protestant background including his student days at Trinity College Dublin. After arriving in Australia in 1875 and teaching at Trinity College Melbourne until 1882, his ambitions took him to Western Australia where he aspired to be accepted and recognised by the local establishment. He was determined that his achievements would not only be acknowledged by his contemporaries, but also just as importantly be remembered in posterity. After a failed attempt to run a sheep station, he found success as part-owner and editor of the West Australian newspaper.

    REGISTER OF HERITAGE PLACES - ASSESSMENT DOCUMENTATION HERITAGE COUNCIL OF WESTERN AUSTRALIA 11. ASSESSMENT OF CULTURAL HERITAGE SIGNIFICANCE The criteria adopted by the Heritage Council in November 1996 have been used to determine the cultural heritage significance of the place. 11. 1 AESTHETIC VALUE* The Theatre Royal and Hotel Metropole (fmr) exhibiting a grand and intricately detailed façade is a significant example of Federation Free Classical style architecture.(Criterion 1.1) The façade of the building, constructed in two stages, exhibits one of the most intricately detailed façades of the Federation Free Classical style in Perth's central business district. (Criterion 1.2) Viewed with surrounding buildings it significantly contributes to the overall setting of the street and character of the urban space. (1.4) 11. 2. HISTORIC VALUE The Theatre Royal and Hotel Metropole (fmr) was one of only two theatre/hotel complexes built in the central city area. The subsequent gradual transformation of the theatre into a cinema house reflects the introduction of cinema culture in Western Australia and its growth in popularity. (Criterion 2.1) Theatre Royal and Hotel Metropole (fmr), built in 1897 and 1894, respectively, reflects the development and growth of theatre and cinema culture in Western Australia during and after the Goldrush. (Criterion 2.2) Theatre Royal and Hotel Metropole (fmr) was developed by T. G. A. Molloy, who was a successful Perth business man and landowner, as well as being the Mayor of Perth in 1908/9 and 1911/12. Molloy made a great contribution to the civic, cultural and recreational development of the State from the 1880s to his death in the 1930s.

ASSESSMENT OF CULTURAL HERITAGE SIGNIFICANCE The criteria adopted by the Heritage Council in November 1996 have been used to determine the cultural heritage significance of the place. The documentation for this place is based on the heritage assessment completed by Kris Bizzaca, Historian, and Alan Kelsall, Kelsall Binet Architects, in April 2003, with amendments and/or additions by HCWA staff and the Register Committee. PRINCIPAL AUSTRALIAN HISTORIC THEME(S) • 4.2.5 Developing city centres HERITAGE COUNCIL OF WESTERN AUSTRALIA THEME(S) • 308 Commercial & service industries • 504 Depression & boom • 311 Hospitality industry & tourism 11. 1 AESTHETIC VALUE* The early form of Globe Hotel, with its two-storey cast iron filigree verandah, displayed, many characteristics of the Federation Filigree style. Changes to façade, including the removal of this verandah, have resulted in the place no longer being representative of Federation Filigree design. However, the building is a good example of a classically derived building with a simply composed front façade. (Criterion 1.1) Globe Hotel is an integral component of a precinct of buildings from the Federation and Inter-war periods. It is important to the historic streetscapes that remain on both sides of William Street and along Wellington Street, together with other nearby streetscapes of that period that collectively forms a significant townscape. (Criteria 1.3 &1.4) * For consistency, all references to architectural style are taken from Apperly, Richard; Irving, Robert and Reynolds, Peter A Pictorial Guide to Identifying Australian Architecture: Styles and Terms from 1788 to the Present , Angus & Robertson, North Ryde, 1989.
