"JUDGE NOT"
BAKER CONSCIENCE STRICKEN To aid him in being excused from serving as a juryman at the Darlinghurst sessions recently, a Killara baker quoted a passage from the Scriptures. His objection to being empanelled, he said, was on conscientious grounds, but to influence Judge White he quoted this passage from St. Matthew: — “Judge not, that ye be not judged. For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged; and w-itlx w-hat measure ye mete, it shall be measured unto you.” Iu granting the application, his Honour said that it was fortunate that the rest of the community did not hold he same views, otherwise the administration of justice would be seriously disturbed.
