When I returned home I found my hut had been forcibly entered and four gallons of spirits, three shirts, three blankets were stolen This robbery could not have been effected without the connivance of the prisoners. They told me when I returned that I was just too late to prevent the hut being robbed, and that they had seen one man about but that they did not attempt to stop him. I have found Mannahar particularly troublesome, he has frequently gone away from my farm without leave, and on my remonstrating with him, he threatened to take my life.
