Details: Statement of Joseph Cunningha, native of the colony, holding a ticket of leave for Parramatta and a convict for life. On Tuesday week last I was ordered by Mr. Hill a partner of Mr. Smiths and Mr. Roberts in whose service I am, to go to Mr. Fitzgeralds station to pick out from 40 to 100 head of cattle. I left Sydney by the steamer on the same evening. Mr. Smith was not at home and I did not acquaint him with my intention to leave. I arrived in Maitland on Wednesday night. I stopped that night at Nichols public house and went to Patrick Plains on Thursday and stopped at Mr. Cullins Inn. I remained there all day Friday awaiting for Mr. Smiths overseer Greenhatch who I expected from Sydney. On Saturday I went to Mr. Gaggins about 10 miles from Cullins Inn. On Sunday morning I left Mr. Gaggin very early and was apprehended by a constable. I was in Sydney from the Saturday before t he Tuesday on which I left. I saw Mr. Smith on the Wednesday, Thursday and Friday at Penrith. I was aware I was a witness in a case Mr. Smith had coming on. I understood from the lawyers in Sydney that the tried cases would not come on until the latter end of court as it was a jury case I asked J.W. Norton when it would come on and Mr. Chambers and a person named Carriage told me the court would not open until the 3rd June. The law suit is between Mr. Dargin and Charles Smith.I do not believe I was sent out of the way. I have had no conversation with Mr. Dargin on the subjects of law suites

Details: JOSEPH CUNNINGHAM, Tobacco Manufacturer, was born in 1838 in the North of Ireland, and in 1841 accompanied his parents to Australia. Settling in Maitland he received his education and entered the tobacco factory of Mr. Charles Pitt, with whom he -remained for a period of five years. In 1855 he visited Melbourne, and after having spent some little time on the goldfields of Victoria, returned to Maitland and established his tobacco factory. This business formerly gave employment to sixteen hands but owing to the falling off of the tobacco-growing industry, the number has been considerably reduced. Mr. Cunningham is an alderman of nearly eighteen years standing, and in 1874 filled the office of mayor of East Maitland. He was elected a member of the District Council in 1883, is a trustee of the school-of-arts, and an elder of the Presbyterian Church. In connection with the latter he filled the position of representative of the Hunter at the Federal Assembly in 1866. Mr. Cunningham has always taken a keen interest in watching the political progress of the colony and has during the last twenty-five years taken a very active part at the general elections. He is married, and has eight children living
