Details: EVIDENCE OF WILLIAM CORDEAUX, DEPUTY ASSISTANT COMMISSARY November 1819 1. How do you supply the store at Newcastle with wheat or flour? By freighting colonial vessels, the grain being either the property of the owner of the vessel or the property of individuals. They of course take the wheat at their own risk and deliver it at Newcastle. The flour that is required at that station we send down from hence in government vessels. 2. What is charged to Government for freight by their owners? One shilling per bushel. 3. Why could not the government vessels be employed in this service and the cost of the freight saved? The government vessels are always employed in carrying either lime or coals. Therefore the wheat could not be conveyed in bulk and as there are not more sacks than are sufficient to convey flour from the mill, and as canvas has been both scarce and very dear, we have not been able to supply any for service. When the shipment of wheat is made direct from the Hawkesbury to Newcastle, the voyage is much shortened and then no charge of freight is made, 4. Is this wheat purchased by sample that is sent to Newcastle? It is not, but the storekeeper there has directions to refuse it, if it turns out to be bad and then it is a charge upon the importer. 46 5. Have you instances of corn being returned from Newcastle on account of its quality or condition? Never. REFERENCE 1. Bonwick transcripts. Box 9, pp.3558-9. An entry for Cordeaux appears in the Australian dictionary of biography, vol.1, p.246. 47
