I have not seen him from that day until Saturday morning last. The prisoner has represented to me that he wanted to get sent to Norfolk Island and he might get his Certificate sooner. I told him I would give him a little time to consider of it before I reported it to the Principal Superintendent of Convicts. In the meantime he absconded. The prisoner was in the receipt of the shilling per day as scourger...The prisoner in defence said that he was unhappy in his mind and his only reason for absconding was to get away from the stockade.
