SLY GROG-SELLING
WOMAN FINED £5O. By Telegraph.—Press association. Te Kuiti, November 16. At the Magistrate’s Court to-day Mary Winifred Tong was charged with sly grog selling. Evidence was given by the police that a taxi driver went to Tong's house and received a bottle of whisky from the defendant, for which he paid twenty-five shillings. On the police visiting the house to search it, the defendant admitted she received the money for the whisky but refused to produce it. No further liquor was found in the house. After lengthy evidence the Magistrate (Mr. R. Al. Watson) convicted the accused and imposed a fine of £5O.
