Details: John Wall alias Johnstone per ship Waterloo, assigned to Mr. Cox, exchanged with Mr. Buchanan for the services of Joseph Merritt. Charged with harbouring Col. Dumaresq s servants and having spirits in his possession....John Bartlett states - I heard four of my masters servants were at Mr. Buchanan s and I went in search of them and found them there drunk. But the prisoner was not drunk though he was lazing alongside of one of them - at this time the prisoner was in charge of Mr. Buchanan s property and a free man William Mossey was in the hut at the time he was laying on a stretcher which behind the door but I could not say he was drunk. This was about eleven o clock in the morning last Wednesday week. And one of the party did not return home until after sundown and they appeared to have been fighting. Wall states that the men came to Mr. Buchanan s place on Tuesday night drunk and insisted upon his letting them into the hut - as they wanted to see Mossey. I told them Mossey was not in - but they said they would break open the door if I did not let them in - I opened the door and they came in with a quart pot in which they said they had some rum - when they told me they had spirits, I put them outside and shut the door - but they kept hammering at it until I was obliged to get up and let them in - I was alone and no men to protect the place or I should have gone and acquainted the farm constable - they told me Mossey had given them the spirits and there was no spirits drunk in the hut. I call upon William Mossey to prove the correctness of my statement....William Mossey being called states - I met three of Col. Dumaresq s servants on the road. I gave one of them, Kenny, a bottle rum which they drank in my presence. Kenny then asked me for another and said he would return it in kind. I gave it to him. I lent them a quart pot and I know nothing more and I went to Mr. Buchanan s next day about 12 o clock, but I saw no men there. He denies having been at Mr. Buchanan s previously drinking with Col. Dumaresq s servants. Peter McVeay states - I am overseer to Mr. Buchanan and on Wednesday week last when I returned home I went into the hut with John Bartlett but did not see William Mossey in the hut....One of my men was there and four of Col. Dumaresq s laying in the hut together with Wall and Henry Shoulder who was laying behind the door and Barret was laying outside, and I did not see Mossey until next day about 12 o clock when I engaged him to go along with Wall to Goulburn River to collect cattle.

Details: Henry Smith per ship Mangles, under 7 year sentence, assigned to Col. Dumaresq, charged with breach of trust and pilfering. John Bartlett states - I am overseer to Col. Dumaresq., and the prisoner is employed as a tinman; on Wednesday last I gave the prisoner six sheets of tin to make pots and on Thursday he brought me back 6 quart pots. I asked him if he had any tin left he said he had part of a sheet. I told the constable to take charge of him until I went and searched his hut and in the prisoners berth under an old bag I found the tin articles now produced before the court but I could not find the part of a sheet of tin he said he had. I then sent for the prisoner and asked him where it was. He pointed to a plank laying on the ground and said it was under that. On the plank being lifted I found to sheets of tin. I asked him where the part of one was which he said he had. He replied that was all he had got. I took him before Mr. Wightman and he asked the prisoner what the things were made for he said for his own use. I have on other occasions weighed the tin issued to the prisoner - on one occasion I weighed him 6lbs and he brought back including the solder and rivets 4lbs in weight wrought up. The prisoner states in his defence that the overseer told him that if he behaved himself properly he would not be against his earning sixpence for himself if he could have the tin. And the articles now before the court is what he saved. I told the overseer I had some tin in the hut. I did not say how much. The Bench call upon the overseer Bartlett to state what permission was given to the prisoner to work for himself or to use any tin for his own purposes. The overseer replied I told him in the presence of Mr. Wightman that he was but a new hand in the country and to try and make the best of the tin and work it all up and I would not be against his doing a little job to earn himself a sixpence if he behaved himself. The Bench find the prisoner guilty and sentence him to fifty lashes.
