Assigned to Henry Dangar on arrival. George Hodges per ship Marquis of Hastings, assigned to William Dangar, charged with insolence....John Button states - I am overseer to Mr. Dangar and on last Saturday when I went out the station where the prisoner was employed splitting timber, I found him in the hut, when he commenced abusing me. I told him to come home and he said he would not. I told him if he did not I would sent the constable for him, he replied that the constable and I might kiss his backside and was otherwise very insolent. The prisoner denies the charge. The case remanded until next court day Sent to Newcastle gaol from Cassilis on a charge of violent assault. Sentenced to 6 month in irons.
