On the following morning he said that he should not in future be allowed it the kitchen and he must take his meals in the workshop. The complainant replied that he was better out of it than in it, when Paton immediately struck him a violent blow in the eye, which was blackened from its effects. Armstrong detailed a list of grievances he had suffered, and the bench fined defendant 10s. and cost for the assault.
