Date: 18 May 1806
Place: Newcastle

Details: We lament, that notwithstanding the immediate measures pursued by the Officer in Command for apprehending the people who went off in one of the boats, yet no tidings whatever have been received of them. These people 8 in number, went off the 1st of April in an open boat with only provision for a few weeks, and neither mast, sail, or any single implement of navigation. The Resource arrived two days after, and went immediately in pursuit, but after running beyond Port Stephen, and accurately examining every creek, bay, and inlet, returned well satisfied that the unhappy men had never outlived the tempest on the second night subsequent to their unfortunate flight. Among these rash people was a young man of the name Douglas, Joseph Samuels, Charles Williams, whose time had not more than twelve months to run, and Joseph Gilman, a German.

Place: Kings Town, Newcastle
Source: Sydney Gazette
Details: A robbery was three weeks since perpetra- ted at Kings Town, Newcastle on the property of John Green, his chest having been wrenched open. Joseph Samuels was taken up on suspicion, and after much evasion, consented to acknowledge the fact upon certain conditions, and at length confessed himself the principal and criminated another as an accomplice. The latter admitted that he had received the property from Samuels, and secreted the whole among the sand on the beach. The spot of interment, however, could not be found, and such mode of treatment was adopted by the Gentleman in command as the heinous nature of the offence required.
