Details: James Honey in the service of government charged with stealing from a fellow prisoner in Church. Charles Hilliard states...I was at Church yesterday. Honey was next to me. When I went to Church I had two dumps and 3 pence coppers amongst which were two farthings. I had also some lint for dressing my leg. During the service I heard some money rattle as if falling into Honeys pocket. It gave me a suspicion that it was mine and on searching for my money it was gone; a constable was behind me. I whispered to him my loss and my suspicion of the thief. The lint was picked up at Honeys feet. He was taken into custody by the constable. After the service was over I recollected that I had hid my money in the waist band of my trousers and on examination I found it there. I have it now about me. (Produced dumps and pennies but no farthings). Charles Merriott, constable, states - In consequence of the communication made to me by Hilliard yesterday, I took the first opportunity that offered without disturbing the congregation to take Honey out of the church. I had previously picked up at his feet some lint and dressing. I searched Honey out of doors and found on his person two dumps and three pence among which were two farthings. Hilliard mentioned the two farthings to me most particularly when he told me he had been robbed. Hilliard pressed me very anxiously not to give evidence against Honey. Hilliard persists in stating that he had made a mistake in charging Honey with the theft but could not give any satisfactory explanation relating to the farthings. James Honey sentenced to 50 lashes and 3 years to a penal settlement. In consequence of the gross prevarication of Charles Hilliard, thereby attempting to screen a thief from punishment, he is sentenced to receive 50 lashes
