Description (What the record is about)
-
Report of John Heath on 1 collective petition (25 people, including jury members) on behalf of Charles Wright, convicted at the York Assizes on 24 and 25 March 1795, for stealing a pocket book and £30 worth of county bank bills, property of Dymock Wells, at the York Races. Evidences supplied by William Roebuck, Thomas Symms, Robert Bedell, Thomas Robson, John Irwin, constable; John Mills, Jonathan Peacock, Christopher Hales and Joseph Smith, all innkeepers. Grounds for clemency: previous good character and his service during the American War (he served on the Fortitude at the Dogger Bank engagement and later on board the Latona.} Initial sentence: 7 years transportation. Recommendation: speaks against mercy, but concludes that Wright serving in a foreign colony or garrison 'from whence he might not soon return again' would be acceptable. Folios 98-100.
