    Summary: \textit{N. Robertson} [personal communication to second author] conjectured that the only 3-connected, internally 4-connected graph of girth 5 in which every odd cycle of length greater than 5 has a chord is the Petersen graph. We provide a counterexample to this conjecture. For Part I see [\textit{D. Nelson} et al., ibid. 18, No. 1, Research Paper P20, 37 p. (2011; Zbl 1223.05157)].
