Convict Notes
The Sydney Gazette and New South Wales Advertiser (NSW : 1803 - 1842) Sat 23 Jun 1810. Page 2. SYDNEY. Terence Flynn and Job Stokes, two of the criminals under sentence of condemnation, were on Tuesday last put on board the King George, for Hobart Town, there to be executed in pursuance of their respective sentences. Flynn for the murder of Thomas Dawson, and Stokes for burglary, both offences having been perpetrated at the above Settlement. Of these unhappy men the following is a short account. Flynn was tried at about 13 years of age, at Lancaster, for robbing a bleach ground, of which offence being convicted together with his father, who was his accomplice, the latter was executed, and the son sentenced to be transported 14 years; under which sentence he arrived here in the 2d Royal Admiral, in November 1800; in his approach to manhood appeared most to delight in acts of atrocity, and has frequency been heard to boast of his having been the projector and principal in the crime which had proved fatal to his misguided parent. Shortly after his arrival he was placed in the Dock Yard, to learn the art of boat building, under the humane presumption that with the advantages of a profession he might, be enabled to obtain an honest livelihood, and that the youthful mind might by habits of industry be gradually alienated from those propensities with which he had at so early a period been assailed; but notwithstanding every effort to reclaim this hardy boy, his vices strengthened as his age matured, and clemency and severity at length were equally lost upon him. He was one of the desperadoes who piratically took away the Harrington in May, 1808, and was apprehended in India with the man for the murder of whom he is to atone, and shipped on board the Venus to be returned to this colony: but on the vessel's arrival at the Derwent both effected their escape.
