Convict Conduct Record

[Matt Williams]

Hi

I have spent quite a few hours going over this and I think I have most of it worked out that I need to know here, but there are a few words/sentences that I simply can't make out and would love it if someone is able to assist here.

I have underlined the parts that I am struggling with.
This is the convict conduct record of my direct ancestor sent to Australia in 1822 and I would like to be able to finish the transcript of his record.
I have underlined the bits I cannot work out

Thank you very much in advance

Line 1/ repriman^d = reprimanded

Line 5. Conduct 24 hours. Sol(itary) conf(inement) on B(read) & W(ater).

Last line but one:
...........7th Jan(uar)y 42. FS(?) Breach of Quarter Sess(ion)s Act fined 80/- & Costs

[majm]

Assigned Servant .......

Breach of Quarter Sessions Act ?

more to come

Sorry, called away, F A M I L Y ....

Thank you for the parts transcribed so far, it is very helpful

[goldie61]

Sorry.
I see re-reading this in the light of day I have put Fined 80/-
It should be 60/-.

[Matt Williams]

Thank you again.

The very last line, I cannot make it out, but there is a report the following day on Trove that points to him having been committed to trial and I think it is very likely it is related to this record.

The only ones I am not sure of now, are line 7. It looks similar to the Quarter Sessions Act lower in the record that Majm references, but I am not sure that the first word in that is Quarter, unless it is a shorthand version of it.

Also in the one where it mentions Mr Wales on line 4, I was meant to underline also the word before Ass Serv.

So it appears to be Harbouring Mr Wales from .... Ass Serv + .... (REP?).

Mr Wales was actually the master that Solomon was assigned to in the 1830 Convict Muster.

I think the last line reads 'committing for Trial'
The ending of 'committing' is a bit difficult to make out - one would have thought it should say 'committed', but there would seem to be no 'd' at the end, whereas there is what looks like a 'g'.

I think you're probably right about Line 7.
Abbreviations for 'Quarter Sessions Act' - you can make our 'Act', and the middle abbreviation is 'Ses'....

I agree line 7 is:  ...Qu^r Ses^s Act...

Line 4 - As per Majm:  ...from Ass^d Serv^t Ross...  (or Rass)

It's the long-s then short-s combination for ss.

[Matt Williams]

Thanks again.
I think it all mainly makes sense except that one on line 4.

It suggests he is harbouring Mr Wales from assigned servitude?
And then what penalty.

As mentioned, what seems strange is that Mr Wales was actually who Solomon was not only assigned to, but spent months on the Gaol gang for destroying his provisions...
