Patrick Burke per ship Larkins, prisoner for life assigned to Mr. Potter Macqueen, charged with leaving his station without permission. Jeremiah Horrigan states....I am sheep overseer on the Segenhoe estate and on Thursday last I told the prisoner that I would bring him out a pair of shoes as soon as I came back. I asked Mr. Dow about the shoes. He said he would get a pair made and send them out to him by me. I told the prisoner not to go to the farm and he went to the farm the next day against my orders....The prisoner states in his defence that he has not had a pair of shoes since August last and he told the overseer that he should go to the farm about his shoes. The overseer told me if I did it was against his orders, but that I might please myself and that he had asked the overseer to bring up his shoes, three times during the last month....Mr. Dow being called upon to explain the period of issue of shoes to the prisoners stated that he examined the books before coming to court and found them entered on the 12th September and he enquired at the shoemaker who made them if he remembered when they were made and he said he did not but that the prisoner was entitled to a pair of shoes on the 28th August previous . He had his shoes soled on the 8th December previous. The bench find the prisoner guilty and sentence him not to be recommended for his ticket of leave until three months after the usual period
