John Thomas Gregory was killed at a wine shop in Henden. An 18 year old man was convicted for his murder but his conviction was quashed after it was found that the Criminal Evidence Act (1898) had not been complied with.
John Gregory was found on the floor in front of the fireplace with his face and head terribly smashed in. On the table there were two wine glasses and an overturned flower vase. On the floor near the body there was a bent poker and there were bloodstains on the ceiling.
