- BALLARAT EAST LICENSING BENCH. ... John Callinan, Hibernian Hotel, Melbourne Road, was opposed by Inspector Kabat, as he had been fined £5 in that court for disorderly conduct and assault in the Exchange Hotel. However, if the Bench would caution the applicant, probably the ends of justice would be obtained. The license was granted.[3]

- A dozen or more persons were in the Ballarat East lock-up on Sunday night, for production at the Police Court on Monday morning. ... On Sunday morning John Callinan, land lord of the Hibernian Hotel, Melbourne Road, was liberated from the lock-up on bail. At about, ten o'clock on Saturday night he, while in Bridge Street, conducted himself in such a manner towards some other person or persons as to cause a breach of the peace. A great row was the consequence, and a man named Moore, or Moran, was similarly involved. The former was also charged with assaulting Serjeant Hickson in the discharge of his duty. The two policemen, who attempted the arrest of the two men referred to, were very roughly handled by them, and it was not until further police assistance was procured that the prisoners could be conveyed to the lock-up. Thither they were taken with great difficulty, a large crowd following. The case will be investigated this morning along with the rest of the offences recorded in the lock-up book.[6]
- On the 11th July, Mr Michael Callinan, at Ballarat, Victoria, aged 38 years, late of Kilfenora, county Clare, Ireland, greatly regretted by all his friends, eldest son of John Callinan, of same place.[7]
