THE ARREST OF THE KELLY GANG, JUNE 1880 A substantial piece of the red scarf which belonged to Thomas Curnow's sister, Catherine. Curnow, the school teacher at Glenrowan, held a lighted candle behind it to indicate to the driver that he should stop the train carrying the police party as it approached Glenrowan where the Kelly gang had taken over the hotel. The Kellys had pulled up some rails, hoping to derail the train so that they could escape the police who were pursuing them.
