Yes burkhilly, it is claimed that Lily Lloyd tried to withdraw her alibi for Parry for the murder night but as she only ever said she saw him from 9pm ish anyway, it didn't matter as the murder must have been done prior to WHW arriving home at 8.45pm. Parry says he was with olivia Brine and others during the time of the murder which was allegedly checked out.
If though she is saying she didn't see him as early as 9ish - then we have to ask why she gave him an alibi for that time, if he did put her up to giving him an alibi for that time and if so what he was really up to. Perhaps driving the murderer from the scene, disposing of the iron bar, cleaning himself or the murderer up so as to be spotless when he did see her later. However, the car wasn't allegedly washed out until the early hours of the morning after the murder according to Parkes.

Hector Munro doesn't recall Lily Lloyd coming to him to retract the alibi anyway it seems. Even if true, WHW had been acquitted on appeal by then and had in fact died. Some think the attempted alibi retraction were the actions of a woman scorned as Parry had ditched her.
