Scutt for allowing his dog to be on the plaintiff's sheep run. Mr. J. E. Heritage appeared for the plaintiff. There was no appearance of the defendant. The case was heard ex parte. Mr. Freeland, in evidence, said that he had been annoyed with dogs amongst his sheep for some time, and sheep had been killed. He said he offered to take and destroy the dog, but this offer was refused. He then decided to take proceedings as a warning to others that the practice of taking dogs on to his sheep run must stop. The bench took a serious view of the case. They said that such cases would be severely dealt with. It was well known that this was lambing season, and they hoped that the penalty in this case would be a warning to others.

In default distress, and in default of distress 48 hours imprisonment.] [Will 1928:AD961/16 40 4756.] [SUPREME COURT GUILTY OF ASSAULT Thursday 1 March 1928 Examiner (Launceston, Tas.: 1900-1954) Sittings of the Supreme Court in its criminal sessions were continued at Launceston yesterday.
