Thomas Perkins, Edward Davis, George Piggot and Thomas Hurst all in government service, charged with disorderly conduct...Mr. Dixon, Principal Superintendent states - I was near the house where Perkins resides last night about 1/2 past eight. I heard a great disturbance in it. Hurst was near the door. I searched him and found some articles of wearing apparel which afterwards was ascertained to belong to Perkins wife. Before I had searched Hurst, I asked him what he had in the bosom of his shirt. He replied Nothing. On my going into the house I found it a scene of complete uproar. Perkins was on the ground drunk. Davis and Piggot who were drunk also were beating him. These men had been absent from work since 12 oclock. Sarah Perkins states - my husband and the others were drunk and I wished to move my clothes out of the way of being destroyed. I threw them out at the door and Hurst picked them up for me. The prisoners admit the impropriety of their conduct. Sentenced to 4 days solitary confinement on Bread and Water
