Details: William Kennedy per ship Eliza, assigned to Captain William Dumaresq, charged with neglect of duty. Mr. John Taylor states - I am overseer to Captain Dumaresq., and the prisoner is employed as pigman. A short time ago one of Mr. Littles pigs joined his herd. I gave him strict orders to take care of it until it was sent for and on last Monday week, I went to look at the pigs; on my going up to them he pulled a pigs ear out of his pocket and said Mr. Littles pig had died on the flat. I told him take the wheel barrow and bring it home. He returned and said he could not find it. I sent him again in the morning and he returned without it saying he could not find it.
