Details: William Moore in the service of government charged with having stolen property in his possession. Mr. Slade, Clerk to Mr. G. Blaxland states - about three weeks since my pocket was picked on the wharf of a silk handkerchief. The gaol gang was working there at the time and it is likely someone of them committed the theft. Mr. Blaxland has had his pocket picked of three handkerchiefs on the wharf during the present month. This morning I saw my handkerchief round the neck of the prisoner. I knew it immediately it is the one before the court now. William Moore in his defence states that he bought the handkerchief about three weeks since from a man in the goal gang named Bernard Devine, that the cook at the gaol was present when he bought it. Bernard Devine denies having sold the handkerchief and states he never had. The cook at the gaol states he never saw Divine sell a thing to Moore. Admits that some weeks since he heard them talking together about a blue handkerchief which one of them had in their hand. William Moore sentenced to a penal settlement for 2 years. N.B. Bernard Devine being a runaway from Port Macquarie is to be returned thither by the first opportunity.

Details: Hugh Conlan, in service of government charged with attempting to appropriate government iron to his own use. William Moore states - I work at the blacksmiths shop in the lumber yard with Conlan at the same forge. Conlan generally makes the shoes for the government horses. He also shoes them. I believe he also shoes horses for private persons. I know of his working up Iron of his own to make horse shoes; it does not come within my knowledge that Conlan ever sold any of the government horse shoes but I know that when he has made a new set for a government horse, he has sometimes put the old shoes on again and kept the new, but I never knew of him using those so kept for his private purposes; some time since in shoeing some government horses he kept back three new shoes, and put the old on in their stead at another time when Mr. Heneage Finch (the surveyor s) horses were brought to be shod, some sets of shoes were made, Conlan then put by three new shoes and re shod the horses in part with the old ones. These six new shoes I got into my possession and Conlan and I have had a quarrel because I would not given them up to him. I took the shoes because I thought Conlan was going to make away with them; they are forthcoming when required except one, which has been used in the shoeing of a Government horse. Re - heard on the 3rd March before Francis Allman and George Brooks. Hugh Conlan acquitted.
