OLCHK 500ac at Te Kohoro on the Waima River exchanged for Pds 68 - 13- 0 scrip JLHK
charged with stealing timber jul 1840 PP1840BOI
from a descendant.
" the charge had been dismissed as it was proven it was his timber.
However my research as a member of our Quaker committee who are revising our Quaker Faith & Practice is that he was disowned by Quakers (Religious Society of Friends back In Bristol in 1822. He was disowned Minute 11 29 Oct 1822 for "taking his master's property and squandering it in reproachful practices"?Apparently he showed no remorse for what he had done but they hoped he might eventually recognise the wrong he had done.
He apparently arrived here in NZ in 1836 so he might have redeemed himself between 1822 and 1836 and been reinstated as a member of the society. After all he was only about 21 in 1822 so he might have "grown up" in the intervening years. However the archives had nothing more on him in their present index." DEWI.
