I was again obliged to go out with a troop of hors...e to a village in the neighbourhood of Pollock, after the civil power of the constables had been beaten off, in the beginning of November, to protect a poor collier who was desir- ous of leaving a village there to obtain work on the other side of Glasgow, from having his furniture destroyed, and himself and bis children assaulted, by his combined neighbours. At length the noctur- nal assaults and meetings of the colliers became so frequent, owing to the total want of any defensive force in the county, that I was obliged to issue a proclamation warning the colliers committee, that if they continued they would be arrested as the cotton-spinners' committee had been, and also tried.
