William Halfpenny, in government service, charged with riotous conduct in the streets. James White, soldier in the Buffs, states - I was standing at the door of a house in Macquarie Street. My comrade was inside. The prisoner came and wanted to go in. I endeavoured to prevent him when he struck me. I had been drinking but not much. Joseph Mixture, soldier of the Buffs, states - I was at a house in Macquarie street on Friday last in company with White. I was inside, he stood at the door. I heard a scuffle and saw the prisoner push open the door and pass White after striking him two or three times. I interfered to prevent further violence but had much difficulty with the prisoner. Sergeant Wood came with a constable and ordered me and my comrade to barracks and the constable took the prisoner into custody but he struggled to get at us. When I interfered between him and White he struck me also. Sergeant Wood, of the buffs, states - On Friday last I was on duty at the main Guard and saw a scuffle at a distance between a soldier and the prisoner. I hastened towards them, they were struggling together. I parted them and ordered the solider to go to Barracks. I ordered the prisoner to go away also., he refused and seemed determined to make a disturbance. He followed White after I had parted them. The prisoner in his defence states - I had a shirt at the house of a woman in Macquarie Street, I went there to get it. A solider was standing at the door drunk. He refused to let me pass, but I pushed him on one side and went in. When I came out he struck me and we had a scuffle. William Halfpenny sentenced to 3 months in the gaol gang

Michael Murray per ship Southworth and William Halfpenny per ship Ann and Amelia, both in government service, charged with theft at the premises of Mr. John Smith. George Furby (Furber) , adopted son of Mr. John Smith states - About 7 yesterday evening, Murray came to my father s shop followed by Halfpenny and Broadbent, the turnkey of the gaol. Murray asked me for some spirits which I refused. I was called into an adjoining room for a moment leaving them in the shop. As I was returning I saw Broadbent throw a piece of handkerchief and some stuff behind the counter. I think he must have heard me returning. He seized Murray at the same time by the collar exclaiming as I turned to tell my father what had occurred - Ive got him - I did not notice anything particular in regard to Halfpenny only his being in company with the others and their being all on the gaol establishment. Mr. John Smith states - Last night my son George gave an alarm by calling out that some men had attempted to rob the shop; I myself heard some articles fall and went into the shop immediately. I should have gone from what I had heard even if my son had not called me. I asked Broadbent if he being a constable would stand there and see me robbed - he replied he had not, that he had seized the man who had attempted it. I looked over the counter and saw the piece of handkerchief and stuff now before the court on the ground. Murray and Halfpenny are I believe wardsmen at the gaol and seeing Broadbent in their company I thought he had come with them, which however he denied, but I was afterwards informed by my son that he had come in with the two other men, which led me to suspect he was conniving at the attempt to rob me, altho upon its being detected he had seized Murray by the collar. Broadbent quitted my shop at my desire and I had the two prisoners taken into custody. John Broadbent states in exculpation of his suspicious conduct that last night the two prisoners were absent from their duty at gaol and that he was ordered by the gaoler go in search of them, particularly of Murray; that he found him at a public house intoxicated; that he ordered him (Murray) to return to the gaol but that on his way he slipt in to Smiths; that he (Broadbent) pursued him and was immediately followed by Halfpenny; that he heard Murray ask for a half pint of spirits which was refused; that Mr. Smiths son George going to another room, Murray leapt on the counter and laid hold of the articles now in court but that the moment that he Broadbent, seized him by the collar, they were dropped by Murray behind the counter. George Furby called and re-examined states - I am positive I saw Broadbent throw the piece of handkerchief and stuff behind the counter. Michael Murray being called on for his defence states - I went into Mr. Smiths in a state of intoxication and called for liquor which was refused. Mr. Smiths son leaving the shop I got on the counter and took the articles upon which Broadbent seized me by the collar, when I threw them over the counter. William Halfpenny states - I followed Broadbent into Mr. Smiths. I had no concern with Murray in the robbery. Sentence: Michael Murray two years hard labour at a penal settlement. William Halfpenny one year addition to his original sentence of transportation

Bernard Malone per ship Ann and Amelia, in government service, charged with having a cheese in his possession which had been stolen from the house of Mr. John Cheers. John Flynn states - I am Mr. Cheers servant. My master is at Sydney; the day before yesterday the prisoner was at my masters drinking; there were others with him - soon after he went away my mistresses mother missed a cheese; there had been two placed on the counter for sale that morning, but neither of them had been disposed of; I was immediately sent to inform the Chief Constable of the cheese being taken; the two cheeses now before the court I believe to be those which were pot out for sale. Mr. Muir, chief constable states - on being apprised the day before yesterday that a cheese had been taken from Mr. Cheers house, I went there to ascertain who had been in the house immediately previous to the cheese being missed. After a few enquires I came away and brought the other cheese with me. In the street at a little distance from Cheers house, I saw two men standing together, the prisoner stood with his back to me, as I approached I heard him speaking about a cheese. I thereupon took him into custody and searched him and found on his person under his jacket a cheese precisely like the other; He told me he had the cheese sent to him by a woman who resides at Wallis Plains. James Brady states - the day before yesterday I met the prisoner in the street near Mr. Cheers house. He told me he had a cheese for sale, and that if I would not buy it myself he wished me to sell it for him. He told me he had got it from a man at Pattersons Plains. The prisoner states in his defence - I got the cheese from a servant of Mr. Corys who resides at Pattersons Plains. I dont know the mans name. I gave him a pair of trousers and seven pence for the cheese. No person has seen the cheese in my possession til Mr. Muir took it from me. As soon as I get it I hid it in some long grass till I got it to sell. Bernard Malone sentenced to 50 lashes
