John Quinn, free by servitude. Charged with drunkenness and disorderly conduct in the streets. Chief Constable James Calvert states....This morning between the hours of twelve and one, John Quin came to my house in a state of intoxication to enquire by what authority I had put George Napier (a prisoner of the Crown) in the watch house. I replied I had confined him for being in the street at unseasonable hours. Quinn demanded that I would release Napier and on my refusing he began to abuse me. Constable Turvey duly approached when Quinn said he and Napier had been carrying goods belonging to their master Alexander Mcleod from their berth at the wharf and again pressed me to release Napier which I refused but said I would go to the wharf to see what things were in the boat. Quin accompanied me and on the way attempted to put a piece of money in my hand upon which suspecting that something was wrong, I directed Turvey to Take Quinn into custody. Quinn made some resistance but was eventually secured and conveyed to the watch house. I then directed Turvey to go and see that the boat and her lading was in a place of safety. A short time after I heard a crash at the watch house and on my proceeding towards it I saw Quinn running away down the hill and Napier about to make his escape. Turvey and one of the Military Guard pursued and overtook Quin and he was again lodged in the watch house. I examined the door of the watch house and found the lock forced and I have no doubt but that it was done by Quin. Quinn stating that he could produce witnesses to disprove the evidence of the Chief constable was remanded but on being brought on the 15th admitted the statement of the Chief Constable to be correct. Fined one dollar and discharged
