Convict Notes
Lancaster Gazette Lancashire, England 31 Mar 1804 LANCASTER ASSIZES George Holland, charged with having broken the dwelling-house of C. Woodiwis of Manchester, and with having stolen therein, five pairs of stockings, and two pieces of calico. 12/10/1806 Sydney Gazette: GEORGE HOLLAND was indicted for breaking into the house of Laughlane Galligheoghan, at Parramatta, in the day time and stealing property out of his chest 10s. value, the offence much heightened by the prisoner's mal-treatment of the prosecutor's person, though an old and feeble man, whom he stabbed in the side with a fractured hinge, and, as appeared from the evidence, had doubtless a design to murder had not assistance happily arrived. Judgment of death was pronounced on ORGAN (WILLIAM ORGAN was indicted for stealing 9 sheep, the property of JOHN PALMER Esq. in whose service he was employed as a shepherd) and HOLLAND. Sentence of Death was at 8 yesterday morning carried into execution.
