Alexander Grant, near Tarland, accused of assault. This was a most atrocious case on the part of the pannel, having been committed on on a person much inferior in strength, and without provocation. The Jury found him Guilty, and the Court sentenced him to seven years transportation Caledonian Mercury, 28 Sep 1817.
