FORTUNE TELLING.
CIRCUAISTANCES PROMPT LENIENCY. AA’ellington, Yesterday. Having suffered financial losses and under the necessity of bringing some money into the home, Elizabeth Green twelve months ago took to fortune telling and to-day was charged in court on two counts. She did not appear, but her counsel said that in two hotel deals the woman lost £I7OO and £I2OO respectively. She had undergone a serious operation recently owing to her health and for years she had found difficulty in obtaining a suitable position. Since his return from the war she had found herself compelled to keep one of her sons.
In view of the woman’s circumstances Mr. E. Page, S.M., imposed a light fine of £2, but remarked that the woman must discontinue fortune telling.
