Details: Robert Young per ship Hindostan, in government service, charged with permitting riotous and disorderly conduct in his house. Chief Constable George Muir states - Yesterday in the morning just as the military were about to assemble to hear divine service, I heard a great noise at Youngs house. After the service was over, Mr. Dun s servant came to me and complained that Johanna Lane had thrown a stone at him. This man has since returned to Pattersons Plains. I went to Youngs house where Johanna Lane resides with her husband - the husband was absent up the river on duty and in his absence I believe the woman cohabited with Young. I found Young and the woman seated beside each other. His face was cut and bleeding. A government man named Samuel O Hare was also in the room and during the time I was there drank a glass of spirits from a decanter on the table. I enquired where the rum came from, Young told me it was part of a half-gallon brought to the house by Thomas Boardman, a settler at Wallis Plains who occasionally lodges with him. He also told me that his face had been cut by a man whom he had prevented forcing his way into the house. About an hour after I was obliged to return to Young s house in consequence of being informed that another disturbance had taken place there - I was accompanied by two constables, but when we arrived at the house all was quiet. In the house were William White and wife and Thomas Boardman (all free person) and Samuel O Hare. Young appeared much in liquor. Robert Young sentenced to be confined at night in the barracks

Details: By the death of the Rev. Patrick O Leary, P.P., of East Maitland, which took place yesterday, there has been removed from the ranks of the Roman Catholic clergy of the diocese of Maitland one of her foremost men, and one whom it will be a difficult matter to replace. For a number of years during the seventies he resided in Singleton as a curate to the Rev. Father Fontaine. Subsequently he removed to Scone, whence he was, transferred to East Maitland, His preaching proclaimed him a man singularly broad in his views, while his regular features, his pleasant voice, and his graceful gesture all lent their powerful aid to win him innumerable friends. His career was eventful and his fruitful record is, to be observed in many portions of the diocese. He was a man of stainless honour and integrity, a man .in whom every acquaintance of his had the. utmost confidence, and this confidence increased as acquaintanceship melted into friendship. He was a man of strong, affections, and, like the Master whom he served so well, he loved, his friends until the end. He had an inflexible will, and yet in all social relations he was as gentle as a child
