Edmund Holmes gave evidence against James Burke ` an ill-looking fellow and
notorious character ' who was accused of attempting to stab, and having
assaulted, a police constable. The trial took place on Monday May 16th 1853
and the accused admitted the assault but thought that he had paid for his
crime by being `knocked down like a bullock' by the staff of the policeman.
The Mayor issued a fine of £5, including costs, in default he would suffer
jail for one month's hard labour. ( A most inadequate punishment for such a
ruffian). After he was removed from court he swore he would murder the
policeman.
