Details:
John Wall alias Johnstone, remanded - the following depositions were put in and read - from James Falloon, James Kenny, holding a T/L and Simon Dogherty per Bussorah Merchant, employed by Col. Dumaresq. Patrick Goggin holding a T/L, stated he was in Mr. Buchanan s hut on 22 January last. Some time in the night three men from Col. Dumaresqs came to the hut and wished to be let in. Wall told them to go away four or five times. They said they would not and they would see him buggered first. Wall let them in and they were quite drunk. Next morning the overseer and Bartelett came. When Bartelett asked Falloon what brought him there, when he told him to go and bugger himself and the Colonel too. There was no liquor. There was a free man there named Mossey gathering cattle. He had liquor but not in the house to my knowledge. I did not see Mossey in the house that night but saw him next morning about nine or ten o clock and never saw again that day but I saw him the day after. Recently Mr. Veay and Bartelett coming to the hut it was after I had seen Mossey it might be about eight or nine o clock in the morning. My berth is on the right hand as you enter the door way between the door and the fireplace when Bartelett came in Falloon was laying on my bed and lay there for some time after. Mossey might have been in the hut without my seeing him. I am very unwell and cannot move about and cannot state particularly as to time. I did not see any liquor in the house. The men had quart pots in their hands at the table. I cannot say whether they brought any quart ports with them or not. I cannot say that spirits were not drunk in the hut. I did not see any. I was laying on my berth. It is on one side of the house and they were sitting on the other. The house is about 14 feet wide....John Bartelett states that when he went into Mr. Buchanans hut on Wednesday morning the 23 January last....I looked into the inner room, the overseer Mr. Veay being with me and saw a person laying on a berth behind the door, the overseer shook him and asked who he was when the man said it is me. Oh! said Mr. Veay it is you William is it. I said its Mossey. Mr. Veay said he is a quiet boy. I swear to the best of my belief that it was Mossey. Wall again states in his defence that no spirits were drunk in the place and that the men came in a forcible manner and demanded admittance and what I stated in my former statement is true and correct. Case remanded
