The convicts were worked very hard. They constructed the buildings, roads and bridges and quarried the stone for building as well as cutting down the trees. They established the first farms and crops, and tended the livestock. If they did not work, they were flogged or their rations were reduced. Some of the governors (such as Patrick Logan) were harsher than others, flogging the convicts almost mercilessly. Others (such as Lachlan Macquarie) showed the convicts a certain amount of respect, an act which sometimes caused the free settlers to feel somewhat disgruntled.
