Windsor Quarter Sessions. Laurence Harrogen and Catherine Fox, were severally charged with a robbery on the person of James Chapman, commonly called "little chappy." The female had smiled upon him at a public house, whereat he had taken his abode as a traveller; had enticed him to go home with her; but, while on the road to enjoy the proffered hospitality, some tall man came behind him and knocked him down. The property stolen, was surrendered by the man to the Chief Constable, but not under any inducement like "better for you;" but arose out of his own feeling and opinion. Then man and woman have lately cohabited together. Mrs Fox has a husband at Port Macquarie, and also two favourites, one at the latter place with her husband, and the other at Norfolk Island. She is an unfortunate woman, and has been rendered single every Sessions held during the last twelve months. Guilty. To be transported to such penal settlement as His Excellency the Governor may determine on, for the term of 7 years. Sydney Gazette, 14 Oct 1826.
