  1. At 8.00am on Tuesday 20th January 1842, over 5,000 people, a quarter of #Victoria’s white population, gathered at the outskirts of #Melbourne crowding round the gallows erected on a small rise east of Swanston St, north of La Trobe St.
    The crowd, in a carnival mood, had come to see the public execution of Tunnerminnerwait and Maulboyheenner – the first two people executed in Victoria.
    This is their story.
