Scope and content
Michaele Caroana failed to report for service on the ship San Giacomo and remained in Malta. Michaele claimed that the desertion was involuntarily since he was hungover from drinking wine and overslept, and he had already loaded his possessions on the ship and asks that he is not punished so he can marry the dowry-less Antonia Hebejer, who would otherwise be destitute. Caroana was sentenced to three years' rowing with chained feet. Giorgio Mercieca was likewise accused of desertion and sentenced to two years' rowing with chained feet.
