Details:
Catherine McCarthy per Grenada and Sarah Cunningham per John Bull, in the service of E.C. Close charged with drunkenness, outrageous behaviour, abusive language to their master and resisting the proper authorities. Isaac Perrott a constable stated - I was on duty at Mr. Closes at Wallis Plains on Friday evening. I was called upon to take charge of Sarah Cunningham who was drunk and fighting with the overseer; I had some difficulty in taking her into custody; the commandant and Mr. Close were present. She abused them both in the grosses terms. Shortly afterwards I was called upon to take Catherine McCarthy into custody. She was not so outrageous as the other woman but she was also drunk and made use of very insolent language to the Commandant and Mr. Close. When they got sober next morning they told me they were sorry for what had happened. Edward Charles Close by letter states - it is the belief of McCarthy and Cunningham that if they get to Sydney they will either escape or by some means be left on their own hands. There was not a man on the farm dare go near them. Their abuse was unceasing and their impertinence excessive. The prisoners admit the justice of the accusation as for Friday but deny having conducted themselves improperly the following morning. Being questioned whether they had any complaint to make against their master or mistress, they state they had no complaint having been always treated with kindness and express sorrow for their misconduct. Sentenced to 14 days solitary confinement in the cells at Newcastle and afterwards to be sent to the Factory at Parramatta for six months.
