I am trolling through the records to find my convicts and I come across this one (not mine i think i would be ashamed of him if he were) who was transported for stealing a waistcoat im ok with that, given he had a wife and three kids. But what i just don't get is he starts indecently assulting men often, to the point he needs to be looked away by himself at night.
He is repeatly punished for it but keeps doing it.

Tasmanian archives, I'm searching through so ive long pasted his name. I had a good chuckle, it seems men whenever they drink and whatever the time they seem to feel the need to expose themselves in public, it seems good behaviour bonds were normally issued fr this sort of thing in 1818.
