In 1879 Ned Kelly and his group came to Jerilderie with the purpose of publicising the serious abuse he and members of his family had received at the hands of certain members of the Victorian public service. That document is famously known as "The Jerilderie Letter"
I wrote this song out of sympathy for Ned as I have been seriously abused by certain members of the NSW public service and am unable to find redress through normal channels. I have called "The Jerilderie Letter 2".
It is sad that 130 years after Ned came to Jerilderie nothing has changed.
