Details: James Howard, in government service charged with improperly and without orders appropriating government property. Mr. William Eckford states - On Tuesday evening McIntosh the stockman came to me to report the death of one of the government working oxen. I immediately went with him and found the animal as stated. He had dropt down at low water mark and was afloat when I saw him. I got the animal hauled off the beach and directed the stockman to get him skinned the next morning. I did not give any orders about the carcase. The following morning when I went to look at it, part of it had been removed - some of it I found in the scrub at a little distance.....Michael Wright states - I was ordered yesterday to skin a bullock which had died on Tuesday evening. I took the hide and entrails to Captain Foley for his inspection. I was afterwards directed by Howard (the superintendent clerk) to go with a cart to fetch the carcase. I afterwards assisted to cut it up and it was sold and distributed about the town. William Jones states - I was driving an empty cart towards the coal mines when Howard told me it was Captain Foleys orders for me to go with it and bring the carcase of the bullock into the town which I did. David Meffan assistant superintendent states - I asked Howard under whose authority he has taken the cart to bring the carcase into the town, he replied by that of Mr. Dixon. Mr. Dixon Superintendent denies having either given orders or permission to Howard to use the cart for the purposes stated. The prisoner states - I did not think I was acting wrong. James Howard sentenced to 25 lashes.

Details: Dennis Horrigan a bullock driver and Andrew McIntosh a stockman, both in government service, charged with cruelly to a government bullock which caused it death. William Eckford, Michael Wright, James Jackson, James Otway (soldier of the Buffs) gave evidence as to the treatment of the bullock.....I saw a loaded cart with two bullocks yoked to it, one a black bullock, the other a red one; the red bullock seemed to get along with considerable difficulty. When abreast of the Commissariat stores it stopped for more than quarter of an hour during which time the driver was beating it on the nose, legs, and different parts of the body without ceasing. The bullocks head hung down, the nose almost touching the ground; I remarked to two of my comrades standing near on the cruelty of the proceeding. In about a quarter of an hour, the bullocks again moved slowly on but opposite the prisoners barracks they again stopped, when similar blows were inflicted and some person came from the barracks and assisted the driver to get them along. I do not know the men. The driver was a young man, undersized. Jacob Bray and Samuel Mummery, soldiers in the Buffs, corroborate the testimony of James Otway. Dennis Horrigan here admits that he was the driver of the cart in question. Thomas Harrison watchman at the lumber yard, states - I did not particularly notice any of the working oxen when they were brought into the lumber yard previous to being driven out for the night but when McIntosh was taking them out he called my attention to one of them which was bleeding at the nose and mouth. James Crofts states - I was walking near the cedar ground and saw McIntosh driving the bullocks along at a great rate, he had a whip in one hand and a stick in the other with which he was urging them on, a red one particularly; It appeared to me they were driven much faster than there was any necessity for. Mr. Dixon, Superintendent states - I saw McIntosh driving the bullocks along as stated and called to him to desist but he either would not or did not hear me. James Cook, night stockman, states - On Monday night the bullock that died did not feed whilst his companion did very heartily they were yoked together as is the custom till they get used to the run. Dennis Horrigan and Andrew McIntosh remanded for investigation
