At Chelmsford Quarter Sessions-John Porter for assaulting James Robinson by drawing a sword upon him and threatening to run him through if he did not enlist into the said party of marines and obtaining from him 25s under false pretences and with him Samuel Wraight and James Deadman. For trial at next Assizes.


Sounds like Robinson could have done with a first cousin called Arthur McBride.
