Convict John RUNCIMAN, Edinburgh 1841

Found this chap in the convict records now on Ancesty:
John RUNCIMAN, convicted Edinburgh 22 Feb 1841, sentenced to 10 years.
Ancestry only had RUNCIMAN, and the image had his forename truncated, but it ended in n and the bit of the preceding letter that was visible looked like it might be an h.
Confirmed by finding a 30 yr old John RUNCIMAN on a Convict Hulk in Plumstead, Kent in the 1841 census.

So, a c 1811 John RUNCIMAN likely to be from Scotland around Edinburgh anyone?
Don't know what he was convicted of, at least not yet.
