Richard Edwards per ship Grenada, in government service, charged with disobedience of orders. Mr. James Crofts, keeper of the gaol states - This morning I saw the prisoner who is a wards man at the gaol, in the act of handing up some fire through one of the windows to a prisoner confined in an upper room, by means of a cord which had been let down for that purpose. This is a practice which I have strictly forbid as it endangers the safety of the gaol and it is only a few days since that the gaol was partially on fire from that cause. The prisoner is well aware of my orders on this head, and must have been conscious at the time that he was acting in defiance of them. The prisoner expresses contrition for the offence says, he was not aware of its being contrary to orders. Richard Edwards sentenced to 25 lashes
