Transported to New South Wales on the ship 'Hillsborough' from Weymouth, England on 13 December 1798 for stealing a 20 Pound banknote from his employer. He was originally sentenced to death, but this was commuted, and he left for Australia having spent over 3 years in prison. From the point of view of the number of deaths on the passage, the most disastrous voyage was that of the Hillsborough. Typhoid, carried aboard by convicts from the fever-ridden hulks as Langstone Harbour, Portsmouth, caused the deaths of 95 of the 300 prisoners embarked, and several others died shortly after their arrival at Sydney. ...Governor Hunter, when the Hillsborough reached Sydney, described the survivors as 'the most wretched and miserable convicts I have ever beheld, in the most sickly and wretched state.' Almost every prisoner required hospital treatment. The frightful mortaility was due primarily to the embarkation of the Langstone prisoners, but also partly to the harsh treatment of the convicts on the voyage. ...they were kept double-ironed, and when on deck were chained together, so that they could not walk about at all, but had either to stand up or lie down on the deck. They were inadequately fed, and, especially between the Cape and Port Jackson, the weather was so stormy that the prisoners were continuously damp and the convicts bedding seldom dry.
