The Adelaide Observer - Saturday, June 1, 1895
The hearing of the charges against Oscar Wilde was resumed to-day, when, counsel having concluded their addresses to the Jury, Sir Alfred Wills summed up the evidence in an exhaustive address which took three hours in delivery.
The Jury retired to consider their verdict and were absent from the Court for two hours, when they brought in a verdict of guilty.
Sir Alfred Wills, in sentencing the prisoner, regretted that he was only able to sentence him to two years' imprisonment, which, in his opinion, was totally inadequate punishment for the offence.
Alfred Taylor, who had been previously convicted, was then brought into Court and sentenced to a similar period of imprisonment.
