Petitions To The Governor From Convicts For Mitigations of Sentences, Colonial Secretarys Papers. Ancestry
Details:
Petition of Hugh Byrne, prisoner of the ship Tellicherry...That your Petitioner arrived in this colony on the ship stated as what was then considered a State Prisoner and agreeable to the promise of Government obtained the indulgence allowed to others in his then situation on his arrival. That in 1812 he had the misfortune to purchase 2 cows from a person of the name of Mahony who your Petitioner looked on as a fair honest character, but unfortunately the cattle alluded to proved to be the property of the Crown, for which your Petitioner was tried and received sentence of Death, but as he respectfully presumes on account of his former good character was changed to Transportation to Newcastle. In 1817 his late Excellency was graciously pleased to give permission for the return to his family and afterwards to grant him a Ticket of Leave. That your Petitioner has a wife and 10 children and lived in the district of Airds on the produce of some stock and agriculture but as a prisoner can not own that independent or comfortable livliehood he otherwise could if a free man. He therefore takes the liberty of appearing before His Excellency in humble hope that his vast sufferings and the respectable recommendations to this Petition will operate in his favour and induce your Excellency to take his case into your humane and gracious consideration and extend to him a Conditional Pardon for such an indulgence your Petitioner will ever be grateful
