Details: James Calvert, overseer of the prisoners barracks charged with improper language to a sentry on his post. The sentry stated - On Saturday night between the hours of 9 and 11, I was sentry at the Stores opposite the prisoners barracks. I heard much singing in the barracks and about 10 oclock the door was opened and a man came out and ran down the street. I challenged him but he did not reply and ran round the corner. A person then came to the door of the prisoners barracks and I asked who had been permitted to pass out. He said no one and that we were at our old tricks but that I had nothing to do with them, meaning the barracks. I told him if I saw anything going wrong there I would let him know I had to do with him. There had been much noise in the barracks all the time I had been on my post. The Chief constable states I learnt from the sentry that some person had passed out of barracks at an improper hour. I crossed over to the barracks and enquired of Calvert who had been permitted to pass out. He replied no one to his knowledge. I discovered that the wardsman was absent. James Calvert states - The Principal Superintendents Clerk was with me on Saturday to a late hour. We were checking over our ration returns when we had finished them, I sent the wardsman out for a pot of beer. When I addressed the sentry I had no intention to give offence. This is a malicious accusation as the Military have an old spite against me. The Court is of opinion that James Calvert is unfit to hold the situation of overseer of prisoners barracks. He is therefore dismissed. Constable Nicholas Heally is ordered to take charge of the prisoners barracks until further orders.
