Thomas Henry Herbert Sinclair was acquitted in the Supreme Court, New Plymouth, on fifteen charges of embezzling the funds of the Taranaki Hospital Board, totalling £l3O. Sinclair is a member of the Hospital Board, and is resident at Opuilake, where one of his duties as secretary of the local cottage hospital was to collect fees from patients and pay them to the board, and also make disbursements on behalf of the board. The defence was that the unsatisfactory state of the accounts was due entirely to muddlements. Press Association.
