NSW Permissions to Marry. 1825-1851. Permission dated 3 Nov 1837 at Sutton Forest. Garret Burns, per Recovery (2), age 37, 7 years, free and Judith Doude, per Southworth (2), age 20, 7 years, bond.
Julia Dowd, a pert little minx, who had been assigned just three days, was charged with having broke out already. The previous day she bolted into her mistress' parlour and commenced shouting, "I say ma'am, I want some aprons, come hand them out quick, I'm in such a bustle." The mistress declined doing anything of the kind, when Julia threw up her pug with the most contemptuous scorn, like a pig would to windward, and commenced displacing the furniture and kicking it about in all directions. This was considered contumacious, and she was handed over to the Police. When before the Bench she expressed no contrition, but appeared to think that her conduct had been quite the thing, in consequence, the Bench gave her a pass to the Factory for two months. Sydney Gazette, 23 Mar 1837.
