No 3. p. 159. April 1791. Information given by the Governor
to the Convicts "that none would be permitted to
"quit the Colony who had wives and children incapable
"of maintaining themselves and likely to become burthensome
"to the settlement, until they had found sufficient
"security for the maintenance of such wives or children
"as long as they might continue after them. " Considering
the latitude of the discretion assumed by some of these terms, this notice
may be considered as a pretty effectual embargo upon the whole married
part of the community of Expirees.

No 4 p. 169. July 1792. Information given by the
Governor to the Expirees that those who wished not to
become Settlers in New South Wales were .."to work there for twelve or
eighteen months certain, and that afterwards "no obstacles
"would be thrown in the way of their return to England:" but
that as to assistance", for any such purpose nobody was to
expect it.

No 5. p. 190. 3d December 1791. Sailed the Active and Albermarle for India. After their departures, Expirees were
missing. "Previous to thus sailing the Governor was aware
"of an intention on the part of the Seamen to facilitate such
"their departure. He therefore instructed the Master, to
"deliver any persons whom he might discover to be on
"board without permission to quit the Colony, as prisoners
"to the Commanding Officer of the first British Settlement
"they should touch at in India."

No 6. p.208. April 1792 Expirees were by this time,
it is said became "numerous". To 14 of them, "the choice
"of the place where they (those freemen) "were to labour" (i.e.
to be forced to labour) is stated as "an indulgence."
