John Early per ship Surry, in government service, charged with purloining a fellow prisoners shirt. Thomas Kenny states - the prisoner and I slept in the same room until last week when he removed to other quarters. The day after he left I missed my shirt. I mentioned the circumstance to the prisoner, and asked him for the loan of one but did not get it. I also mentioned my loss to Constable Merriott and described the shirt to him, and the day after Merriott brought me the shirt. I know it to be mine from the patches on the shoulders. Tis the shirt I lost. The prisoner states - IN my hurry in tying my own bundle, when I shifted my lodgings I took the shirt by mistake, having one of the same pattern. Mary Matthew who lived in the house know it. She has washed for me. Mary Ann Matthews states - I washed a shirt two or three times for Early during the time he stopped at my masters. It is the same pattern as that before the court but this is a much better shirt. I saw Early given his shirt some weeks since to a black native. John Early sentenced to 3 months in the gaol gang
