Caroline Cottrell born 1817
« on: Thursday 25 August 22 04:10 BST (UK) »
Caroline Cottrell born 1817, was my 3X Great Aunt. She was convicted of stealing at the London Old Bailey in 1842, and transported to Van Diemen's Land, sentence 10 years.
I found her record of conduct at https://stors.tas.gov.au/CON40-1-2$init=CON40-1-2p241
But it's quite hard to decipher. I have attached the relevant snip.
Can anyone tell me what this says please?
Many thanks in anticipation
Charlie

I am not convinced about "Montag".  ???
It makes no sense. And they haven't stated the weekday anywhere else. And why suddenly use German/Dutch? Hmmm...

It looks like "... of misconduct", or the first word is longer and the "of" bit is part of it.

I wasn't convinced about Montag either -   (and bracketted the OF as an alternative.)

 Got another suggestion?   :) :-\  In . . .   maybe  ??

I have been racking my poor old brains, but nothing good has come of it yet...  ::)

Edit: I can't see the first letter of "of" as an "o". It doesn't join correctly. I am tending more & more towards it all being one word. But what is it?!

Edit II: Could it be (xxx) gross misconduct, with a long "s" for the second "s"?

I see the name Montague.

A search on Trove shows a Mr Justice Montague presiding in Tasmania around this time.

So I think perhaps the case was held before him?
