“THAT’S A LIE”
WOMAN THUMPS FIST ON COUNSEL’S TABLE HAMILTON COURT SCENE From Our Own Correspondent HAMILTON, Today.--While Mr. W. J. Iving, solicitor, was addresing the court today in a prosecution case against Duncan Alexander Calderwood, charged with, failing to remove a tent from a certain allotment and causing a nuisance, defendant’s wife advanced from the rear of the court and shouted: “That's a lie. I’m not going to allow that to pass.” Thumping her fist on counsel’s table, the woman said that her husband was out of town and she had come to try and stop the case. Mr. King had explained that defendant had pitched the tent on a section near the motor camp, and he had been ordered to remove it. Conditions since the camp had been clqsed had become insanitary and the health authorities considered that the tent should not remain.
Mr. F. W. Platts, S.M., adjourned the case for a week to enable defendant to be present.
