Convict Notes
RYAN, Jeremiah. Per "Malabar", 1819. 1819 Nov 5 On list of convicts disembarked from the "Malabar" and forwarded to Emu Plains for distribution (Reel 6007; 4/3501 p.14) 1820 Oct 27 On list of prisoners transported to Newcastle per "Elizabeth Henrietta" (Reel 6007; 4/3502 p.392) 1823 Oct 31 On lists of prisoners transported to Port Macquarie per "Sally" (Reel 6019; 4/3864 pp.86, 446-7) 1824 Mar 15,23 Re punishment of as a runaway (Reel 6012, 4/3510 p.516; Reel 6061, 4/1778 p.247c) 1824 Mar 20 On list of persons proposed to be sent to Hobart (Reel 6012; 4/3510 p.550) 1824 Mar 20 On list of convict runaways from Port Macquarie forwarded to Hobart per "Triton" (Reel 6019; 4/3522 p.33) -------------------------------------------------- THE SUPREME COURT, OF VAN DIEMEN'S LAND SATURDAY.—Jeremiah Ryan, James Bryan, Charles Ryder, and Henry McConnell were arraigned for burglariously entering the dwelling-house, of Anthony Geisse, situate at the Black Snake, on the 24th day of Angust last, and for stealing therein two blankets, a quantity of tea, sugar, meat, flour, and bread—a reading glass, a horse pistol, a pair of jean trowsers, and six shirts, then and there being the property of the said Anthony Geisse. Verdict—Guilty, The same prisoners were then arraigned for a burglary on the 25th of August, in the house of Samuel Pyers, near the Black Snake ; when Ryder, not being clearly identified, was acquitted, but Ryan, Bryan and McConnell found Guilty. They were afterwards tried for another burglary, on the same night, in the dwelling of Richard Pyers. Verdict—Guilty. After which, they were re-arraigned for the wilful murder of John Lowe, on the 15th of July, at Ballefield, in the County of Cornwall, and pleaded Not Guilty.—The circumstances attending this murder have already been fully illustrated in this Gazette, and it would therefore be useless for us to say more on the subject than that, as the Learned CHIEF JUSTICE observed, where many persons go to a place for the purpose of committing a felony, if one of them in prosecuting the common object kill a man, they are all guilty of murder; which verdict, after some deliberation, the Jury very properly returned. Hobart Town Gazette, 26 Nov 1824. EXECUTIONS This morning Henry McConnell, for bushranging and burglary ; James Bryan, Jeremiah Ryan, Charles Ryder, Musquito, a Sydney black, and Black Jack, a native of this Colony for murder, John Logan, for shooting with intent to murder Mr. Shoobridge and Peter Thackery, for stealing in a dwelling-house, and putting the owner in bodily fear, were executed according to their sentence—a sad example of the fate which sooner or later must overtake the enormities of which they had been convicted. On this occasion, for the first time, the Scaffold was erected within the Gaol walls, but in view of the town; and we should not be doing justice to the newly appointed Sheriff, if we failed to state that the whole of the melancholy arrangements reflected credit to his feelings, as an Officer and a Gentleman. The unhappy men on ascending the Platform, displayed a becoming humility, expressed their deep remorse, and, after singing an appropriate hymn, joined in most fervent and pathetic supplications to the throne of mercy. They then requested their clerical assistant, Mr. Bedford, to address, on their behalf, the assembled spectators, which he immediately did in words or to the effect following:— My dear Friends—It is the anxious wish of these our dying fellow sinners, that I should thus in public, acknowledge for them the justice of their condemnation, and that I should call upon you to repent, "for the kingdom of heaven is at hand." They implore you to take warning from their ignominious end; they entreat in this their last hour that you will turn from the error of your ways to the Lord your GOD, for he will have mercy. Yes, my brethren, these poor unhappy fellow-worms whose lives have become forfeited to the laws of violated justice and humanity, implore you all to shun the path that leads to death—to avoid bad company—to be industrious, sober, and slow to anger—to be obedient, honest, and religious. May their prayers be answered, may their fate be impressed with salutary force on your Recollection, and may you now successfully join me and them in cries to the Redeemer for their, pardon in another world." This address proved very affecting, and the hapless offenders after a short interval were launched into eternity. The whole of the officers in attendance were in deep mourning. Hobart Town Gazette, 25 Feb 1825.
