He married Eliza Elliott Oliver, daughter of a London business man, and their only son was born in 1816. Savery ran a sugar-refining business which was declared bankrupt in 1819, and had proprietorship of the newspaper <i>The Bristol Observer</i> for a little over two years,<sup id="cite_ref-3" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-3"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>3<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> after which he returned to sugar refining. Having overextended the firm's commitments to his partner, he began trading in forged bills of credit which eventually amounted to over £30,000.<sup id="cite_ref-4" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-4"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>4<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> His partner called the authorities when he absconded with £1500. He was arrested on 9 December, having jumped from a boat that was to take him to America. While in prison his behaviour was so erratic that his trial had to be postponed. On 2 April 1825, he pleaded guilty and was sentenced to hang on the 22nd of the same month.<sup id="cite_ref-5" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-5"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>5<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Through influential friends this was commuted to transportation, only a day before his execution was due. Sometime in August he departed England for the last time on the ship <i>Medway</i> with 171 other convicts. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading2"><h2 id="Transported_to_Van_Diemens_Land">Transported to Van Diemens Land</h2><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Henry_Savery&action=edit&section=2" title="Edit section: Transported to Van Diemens Land"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Arriving in <a href="/wiki/Hobart,_Tasmania" class="mw-redirect" title="Hobart, Tasmania">Hobart</a>, <a href="/wiki/Van_Diemen%27s_Land" title="Van Diemen's Land">Van Diemen's Land</a> at the end of 1825, Savery was retained in government service and worked for the Colonial Treasurer, an appointment which caused controversy among other colonists.<sup id="cite_ref-6" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-6"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>6<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> In 1828 his wife and son came to the colony, and arguments between them culminated in his attempted suicide.<sup id="cite_ref-7" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-7"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>7<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> There had been rumours about Eliza's conduct with the colony's Attorney General, her chaperone, during the journey from England. She may have also been angered that Savery's letters to her had exaggerated his position in the colony. Soon after, he was imprisoned for debt and Eliza took their son back to England within three months. They never saw each other again. </p><p>In prison, Savery wrote a series of sketches of activities and personages in the colony.<sup id="cite_ref-8" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-8"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>8<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> These were published in the <i>Colonial Times</i> and, after settling a libel suit, collected in the book <i>The Hermit of Van Diemen's Land</i> (1829). This occurred under the pseudonym 'Simon Stukeley' as a convict could be sent to the far harsher <a href="/wiki/Macquarie_Harbour_Penal_Station" title="Macquarie Harbour Penal Station">Macquarie Harbour Penal Station</a> for being published. It is only through a note in his publisher Henry Melville's own copy of the book that we know of Savery's authorship. Savery wrote his novel during his assignment to the household of Major Hugh Macintosh, one of the two founders of Cascade Brewery. He was given permission to reside at Major Macintosh's Lawn Farm on the banks of the Derwent River, about six kilometers down stream from New Norfolk, on the condition that he not carry on his own business. Macintosh and Savery appeared to have established a friendship prior to his assignment and Savery was soon managing Lawn Farm for Macintosh, whilst also being given time to write <i>Quintus Servinton</i>.<sup id="cite_ref-9" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-9"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>9<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> After Macintosh's death in December 1834, Savery remained at Lawn Farm as manager for at least another four years. </p><p><i>Quintus Servinton: A Tale founded upon Incidents of Real Occurrence</i> was published anonymously in 1831 to reasonably good reviews from the colonial press.<sup id="cite_ref-10" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-10"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>10<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Savery's authorship became a public secret and was even mentioned in a reference for his <a href="/wiki/Ticket_of_leave#Australian_convicts" title="Ticket of leave">ticket of leave</a> which was granted in 1832. Unfortunately his relative freedom was quickly revoked because of his writing, in this case for the paper <i>The Tasmanian</i>.<sup id="cite_ref-11" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-11"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>11<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> The suspension was itself suspended when it turned out the charge was a pretext for tarring the reputation of <a href="/wiki/George_Arthur" class="mw-redirect" title="George Arthur">Governor Arthur</a>. Savery's illegal authorship was thereafter quietly ignored. </p><p>Less is known about Savery's final years, though he gained a provisional pardon.<sup id="cite_ref-12" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-12"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>12<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> He fell into debt again and possibly alcoholism. By 1839 he was refused a convict servant.
