Details: John Brooks, free by servitude, charged with drunkenness. Constable Peter Riley, states - yesterday in the afternoon between 4 and 5, I saw five or six men in the road crowded together as if they were fighting. I went towards them and found Brooks stripped to fight. I interfered and prevented Brooks from striking a man who was of the crowd and I took Brooks to the watch house. He was not very drunk; seemed to know what he was about; he was able to walk but was in a state of intoxication and very quarrelsome. Constable Thomas Dwyer states - I saw a mob assembled together yesterday afternoon and went with Riley to disperse it. We found Brooks stripped except his trowsers, - his shirt lying on the grass; it appeared to me he wanted to strike a man who was standing near. Brooks was intoxicated. I assisted riley to take hi to the watch house. John Brooks fined 5 shillings or two hours in the stocks. The prisoner expressing his determination not to pay the fine, in language highly disrespectful to the court, his sentence to the stocks is extended to three hours.
