Details: William Halfpenny, in government service, charged with riotous conduct in the streets. James White, soldier in the Buffs, states - I was standing at the door of a house in Macquarie Street. My comrade was inside. The prisoner came and wanted to go in. I endeavoured to prevent him when he struck me. I had been drinking but not much. Joseph Mixture, soldier of the Buffs, states - I was at a house in Macquarie street on Friday last in company with White. I was inside, he stood at the door. I heard a scuffle and saw the prisoner push open the door and pass White after striking him two or three times. I interfered to prevent further violence but had much difficulty with the prisoner. Sergeant Wood came with a constable and ordered me and my comrade to barracks and the constable took the prisoner into custody but he struggled to get at us. When I interfered between him and White he struck me also. Sergeant Wood, of the buffs, states - On Friday last I was on duty at the main Guard and saw a scuffle at a distance between a soldier and the prisoner. I hastened towards them, they were struggling together. I parted them and ordered the solider to go to Barracks. I ordered the prisoner to go away also., he refused and seemed determined to make a disturbance. He followed White after I had parted them. The prisoner in his defence states - I had a shirt at the house of a woman in Macquarie Street, I went there to get it. A solider was standing at the door drunk. He refused to let me pass, but I pushed him on one side and went in. When I came out he struck me and we had a scuffle. William Halfpenny sentenced to 3 months in the gaol gang

Details: Dennis Horrigan a bullock driver and Andrew McIntosh a stockman, both in government service, charged with cruelly to a government bullock which caused it death. William Eckford, Michael Wright, James Jackson, James Otway (soldier of the Buffs) gave evidence as to the treatment of the bullock.....I saw a loaded cart with two bullocks yoked to it, one a black bullock, the other a red one; the red bullock seemed to get along with considerable difficulty. When abreast of the Commissariat stores it stopped for more than quarter of an hour during which time the driver was beating it on the nose, legs, and different parts of the body without ceasing. The bullocks head hung down, the nose almost touching the ground; I remarked to two of my comrades standing near on the cruelty of the proceeding. In about a quarter of an hour, the bullocks again moved slowly on but opposite the prisoners barracks they again stopped, when similar blows were inflicted and some person came from the barracks and assisted the driver to get them along. I do not know the men. The driver was a young man, undersized. Jacob Bray and Samuel Mummery, soldiers in the Buffs, corroborate the testimony of James Otway. Dennis Horrigan here admits that he was the driver of the cart in question. Thomas Harrison watchman at the lumber yard, states - I did not particularly notice any of the working oxen when they were brought into the lumber yard previous to being driven out for the night but when McIntosh was taking them out he called my attention to one of them which was bleeding at the nose and mouth. James Crofts states - I was walking near the cedar ground and saw McIntosh driving the bullocks along at a great rate, he had a whip in one hand and a stick in the other with which he was urging them on, a red one particularly; It appeared to me they were driven much faster than there was any necessity for. Mr. Dixon, Superintendent states - I saw McIntosh driving the bullocks along as stated and called to him to desist but he either would not or did not hear me. James Cook, night stockman, states - On Monday night the bullock that died did not feed whilst his companion did very heartily they were yoked together as is the custom till they get used to the run. Dennis Horrigan and Andrew McIntosh remanded for investigation
