Instead the governor sent 150 British soldiers to Ballarat to strengthen the numbers of police and soldiers already stationed there and another licence hunt was issued.
- no, the men will not be released for the burning of the Eureka hotel. Another licence hunt will be issued and more soldiers sent.
