James Scobie was a Ballarat goldminer who was involved in a drunken fight at the Eureka Hotel, also known as Bentley's Hotel, during which he died. Initially, the hotel's owner and employees were absolved of blame in an official inquiry. However, when a second inquest into his death was held, the hotel's owner, Bentley, and two of his staff were found guilty of manslaughter and sentenced to three years' hard labour in the road-gangs. Scobie was believed to have died from a blow to his head.
