Details: Jonathan Rigby per ship Camden, assigned to Francis Little and James Power per ship Exmouth, assigned to Archibald Little, charged with petty theft...John Jones holding a T/L states - I am overseer to Mr. Little and on Saturday last whilst I was serving out the rations I missed a piece of suet and a loin of pork having the tail with it; when I missed the suet I examined the bags of the prisoners; I did not find it and missing the prisoner Power, I asked the prisoner Rigby where he had gone; he said that he did not know unless he was gone to his hut; on returning to the store, I then missed the pork; a man of the name of Osborne was in the store with me; when I cautioned to say nothing about the loss until I could make further enquiries. The following day whilst in my hut I smelled pork frying, I immediately went to the hut where the prisoners live and I found in the iron pot pork frying in every respect similar to what had been stolen; the tail being remarkable. I asked Rigby how he came by the pork; he said Osborne must have told you and I ll break his neck if he comes into the hut again; there are other two men living in the hut with the prisoners but I did not observe them about the store when the pork was taken away. The prisoner Rigby states in his defence that John Jones did not search the bags when looking for the suet nor did he examine the iron pot when he came into the hut, as he merely came to the door and said we were frying pork and went away to mention the circumstance to Mr. Little. A free man of the name of Frederick Edwards was in the hut at the time and partook of what we were frying both the prisoners deny having taken pork. Frederick Edwards, free by servitude, states - I was in the prisoners hut on Sunday last during the whole of the day except a short time about five minutes when I went to the Blacksmiths shop about twenty yards off. I partook of what the prisoners dressed in the iron pot which was beef and not pork. I swear positively no pork was dressed in the iron pot that day. I was not in the hut when John Jones came there nor did I see him about that time. James Osborne states - I was in the store with Jones on Saturday and heard Jones state that the pork had been taken away and he told me to say nothing about it. On Sunday morning I went into the prisoners hut to get shaved and I saw the pork in the iron pot and I went and told Jones of it; he went out and returned and told me he had seen it as I had in the iron pot. My m. had told me to take charge of the pork in question whilst in the store. I saw Jones search the bags of the men at the store door with the exception of the prisoner Power who was absent. The Bench find the prisoners Rigby and Power guilty and sentence them to receive fifty lashes each. The Bench direct Frederick Edwards to be taken into custody on charge of perjury. The evidence and particulars of which forwarded to the Attorney General this second day of May
