William Butler per John and John Biggs per Adrian, firemen employed at the Telegraph, charged with neglect of duty in allowing the light to go out. James Pumphrey testified....On Wednesday night last about one oclock I got up to see where my watchman was when I saw very little light at the light house. The fire was nearly out. I am Principal Overseer of the Iron Gang and live in the new house near the flat staff...William Cromarty testified... On the Wednesday afternoon I had occasion to go to Mr. Smith s station to fetch the carcass of a bullock which I had kept there. I left one of my men my own place and took Butler with e expecting to be back before ten oclock. The water being low we were detained until twelve oclock before we could leave the dairy. On leaving the dairy I could see the light, it was good and I steered by it until I got to Pearch Point. I then observed that the light began to get dim but still it may be have been seen at the distance of five or six miles. About quarter past one I landed at the wharf. I sent one of my own boats over to the light house to attend the fire until daylight about five minutes two I saw the fire burning quite clear and it continued until daylight. I ordered Butler to the boats crew hut as he was wet and cold. Discharged....Magistrates George Brooks and A.W. Scott...Mr. Cromarty has been informed that we consider it an irregularity to employ the men attached to the light house on his private business so as to interfere with public duty and that should the circumstance again occur it will be reported
