Details:
John Hunter, in service to Edward Gostwyck Cory, charged with repeatedly refusing work and disobedience to the orders of his master and the overseer. Mr. Cory states the prisoner has not been many months in my service, but his general conduct is very reprehensible, he is continually framing excuses to evade doing his work; on Saturday last he was ordered to assist in discharging my vessel which was lying on the beach and refused on the pretence that his feet were injured from the quantity of calomel he had formerly taken. John Tiernan, overseer on Mr. Corys farm states - Hunter if one of the idlest men my master has in his service. On Saturday last he was ordered by my master to assist in discharging the vessel when he refused because his feet could not bear the cold. The prisoner states - we came away last week from my masters farm and our blankets were left behind by my masters orders. We were two nights on the water and arrived at Newcastle on Friday. We remained on board my masters vessel that night and had no blankets to cover us. I cannot go into the water having taken formerly a great deal of mercury and I suffer in my feet from it. Mr. Cory states - I have been obliged to order my overseer to prevent my men bringing their blankets with them to Newcastle as they are generally made away with. There were plenty of sails on board my vessel and they could have had the use of them if they chose in the hold. John Hunter sentenced to 50 lashes, subject to reference to Surgeon Brooks on the alleged incapacity to work from the effects of calomel.
