14th Jan [1847]. This morning between the hours of 4 and 5 o’clock a prisoner of the Crown by the name of WILLIAM YEOMAN stabbed another prisoner by the name of THOMAS BIGNOLD. It is supposed that it was occasioned by the brutal propensity that is practised on this Island by some of the prisoners. Both men having a very bad character for it.
