Details: John Large in government service, charged with being detected in the house of Isaac Elliott last night at an unreasonable hour and under very aggravated circumstances and for having various articles in his possession which had been stolen from Isaac Elliott. Isaac Elliott states - I had occasion to go up the river in the beginning of the week. I returned home last night a little before midnight. I knocked at my window. I heard someone whispering in my bedroom. I listened awhile and then repeated the knock and again I heard the whispering. I thought something was wrong and I ran round the back door which at the moment was opened and a man pushed out. I have no doubt but it was Large who rushed past me. In my bedroom there were found various articles of clothing belonging to him. On examining my trunks I find I have been robbed to a considerable extent. Amongst other things I miss a number of shirts, 18 cravats, trowsers, tea and sugar an a fifty and ten dollar bank note. Sarah Perkins, states - I was at Mr. Elliotts yesterday. His wife told me she had been robbed of tea and sugar and various other articles. I was told in the course of the day that Large had been offering a scarf for sale. I enquired of Mrs. Elliott whether she had lost a scarf. On examining her boxes she ascertained that she had. I went to Large and got the scarf from him. I saw in his possession a fifty dollar and ten dollar note; he said they belonged to Mr. Elliott. I took them from him, they are those now before the court. I have seen Large frequently at Mr. Elliotts house when he is absent. Mr. George Muir Chief Constable states, The prisoner Large was absent from his quarters all last night. I was in search of him at various houses during the greater part of the night. This morning early he was found secreted under a rock near the signal house. In his possession were found a pair of trousers and shirt belonging to soldiers of the 57th regt., A blanket, cravat and pair of socks and some other articles. Isaac Elliott states - the blanket, socks and cravat found in Larges possession are my property. I have also no doubt but that the bank notes also belong to me. John Large in his defence states I acknowledge having offered the scarf for sale, it was given to me by Sarah Perkins for that purpose. She told me Mrs. Elliott had given it to her as a present. I was at Mr. Elliotts house yesterday afternoon. I drank two quarts of wine there with Mrs. Elliott and Sarah Perkins. I got drunk and lay down in the kitchen to sleep. I did not know how late it was. John Large sentenced to 75 lashes and to be transported to a penal settlement for 3 years.
