Hi all

The Wiltshire Quarter Sessions for June 1836 were reported in the Bristol Mercury for Saturday July 9th 1836. The list of prisoners mentions a 'John Harris' who must be the same as John Collins Harris. It doesn't say what he was imprisoned for, although he was Imprisoned with Hard Labour for 14 days.

Hope this helps

Graham
