THERE ARE TWO CONVICTS OF THIS NAME ON THE EARL OF LIVERPOOL. The following repOrt may apply to this Elizabeth Smith. Elizabeth Smith, an importation by the Earl of Liverpool, who made her first appearance a-shore on Friday last was charged with insolence to her mistress. It appeared that the prisoner was assigned, direct from the ship, to the service of a gentleman in Sydney, to whose house she was sent on the day she landed. In the afternoon she obtained permission of her mistress to go out, on some business of her own, fora limited time, which she exceeded, and on being reprimanded on her return home, told her mistress she was "a-good-for-nothing hussey," and that she (Elizabeth) " knew by the cut of her jib" that the service would not answer her. The Bench sentenced her to the third class in the Factory for three months; at the expiration of which time, perhaps, the 'cut of her jib may be somewhat altered.' Sydney Gazette, 19 April 1831.
