SUPREME COURT.
CRIMINAL SESSION. (Before his Honor Mr Justice Chapman.) Wednesday, July 16, THE KAIKORAI PERSONATION CASE. George Calder was charged with having tried to vote at the Kaikorai election, iu the name of an elector, his son, while his (accused’s) name was not on the roll. Mr Stout defended. After evidence had been adduced similar to that given at the Mayor’s Court, and a point having been reserved as to the appointment of Mr Street as Returning Officer, Mr Stout urged that the evidence showed that accused did not intend to personate bis son, but went to the booth believing he had a right to vote. A verdict of not guilty was returned.
