The High Court of Justiciary case against this George Brown does not appear to have been reported in local newspapers. However the subject of this Convict Record may be the same 'George Brown' that was called 'G B' by Edinburgh Police Detective McLevy in his June 1856 evidence to the House of Commons Select Committee on Transportation - with the remit to review the workings of the Penal Servitude Act, 1853 - see McGowan, John (2022) Policing the Metropolis of Scotland (Edinburgh City Archives) Volume 1, p 1307.
