The Gaoler also reported that the six men viz Edward Martin, John Lovell, Joseph Day, Wlliam Ansell, Michael Izzard and William Galor, sentenced to transportation, the first for life, the rest for seven years, had been removed on board the Ganymede Hulk at Woolwich and that they had conducted themselves with propriety during their removal.
