“THE DECAMERON”
Notice Of Appeal Against Magistrate’s Decision It is understood that notice of appeal has been filed in the case in which Howard K. Sumpter, a principal of the London Book Club, Auckland, was lined £5/1/- for having for hire a copy of Boccaccio's “Decameron,” ruled by the magistrate to be an indecent document. Grounds have been given for the appeal, which will probably come before the next sessions of the Supreme Court, in Auckland.
