A LOCK-UP FOR THE SPIT
[To the Editor of the Times.] Sir -The'necessity of having a Lochup erected on the Eastern Spit has often been urged in the columns of your valuable journal. As another instance of the • desirability of having suck a building, I may mention that a man who had been “ indulging’ rather freely on Tuesday night last, was led to the Lock-up in town, because the constable on duty did not deem the weighbridge-house (which has on more than one occasion been used to confine refractory Bacchanalians) strong enough to hold him, because of his violent behaviour.—l am, fyc.,
EASTERN SPIT.
August 8, 1867.
