"DR" BORANOFF.
REAPPEARANCE IN CHRISTCHURCII. "D.r" Leo Arthur Arnold Copelami Boranoff, not unknown in Taranaki, appeared at the Magistrate's Court, Christchurch, on Friday, charged with having been an unregistered person using the •title of doctor, contrary to the provision of section 22 of the Medical Act, 1908. His Worship inflicted a fine of £lO, and payment of expenses, in default six months' imprisonment.
Chief-Detective Bishop said that for the sake of the public he wished to hand to his Worship accused's record. The man was an absolute fraud. He had been in gaol in England for three years, and had come out on the Tainui, not as a doctor, but as a trimmer, under the name of Barr. In the North Island he had been in gaol for three years for indecent assault. The photographs and finger-prints would show that accused was the man, and the records set out his undesirable character. For the sake of the public at large, he wished the press to lake notice of these things. Accused said that he had no goods on which distraint could be levied.
