Background

Goldfields Involvement, 1854

James Lough was a private in the 40th regiment.[1]

James Louge of the 40th Regiment was a witness against Jacob Sorenson, William Molloy and Patrick Howard and said “I belong to the party at the attack on the 3rd Inst. I was close when Captain Wise fell. I saw the prisoner Howard by a tent where a lot of men where standing. He was facing a little to the right. I fired at the mob but not at him.”[2]
