“I CANT BELIEVE IT”
MAGISTRATE SURPRISED SANATORIUM RULES (Special to THE SUN) CHRISTCHURCH. Thursday. If the defendant were convicted of theft, he would not be allowed to remain in the Cashmere Sanatorium, where he was a patient, so Mr. E. D. Mosley, S.M., was told by the probation officer. The case was one in which William Hay Ramsay was charged. “I can’t really believe that is true.” said Mr. Mosley. “It is important from a public point of view that a man should be restored to health. Surely if the Court sees fit to place him on probation it will not render him liable to communicate the disease to someone else? The public has to be protected.” Mr. Stacey, for accused, suggested that the conviction should be held over until the sanatorium treatment was completed, but the magistrate said he did not think the position had been stated correctly. Chief-Detective Carroll said Dr. Aiken might not be the last word in the control of the sanatorium. Accused, who is already on probation, was charged with the theft of a bicycle. He was convicted and placed on probation until the expiration of his present term of probation.
