On 28th December 1842, policeman Richard Cullingford was in the Bush, the house of John Freeman, for some two hours. Claiming that he had been insulted, he struck William Goodwin, one of the river watch, a violent blow on the leg. On 5th January 1843 Cullingford was castigated for being employed in the preservation of the peace, yet being in a public-house, drinking for two hours. He was ordered to pay Mr. Goodwin 24s for his loss of time, 20s for the surgeon's bill and 10s costs. Protesting against the decision Cullingford agreed to leave 10s a week, out of his pay, with the Superintendent.
