CRUELTY TO SHEEP.
FORTNIGHT WITHOUT FOOD. By Telegraph.—Press Association. Wellington, Last Night. At the Magistrate’s Court, Ernest Whitehouse, station owner, Ohariu Valley, was charged with treating sheep cruelly, and also with causing them unnecessary suffering. The defendant placed 47 sheep in a yard with no food or water, expecting a neighbouring farmer to collect them later, but he failed to do so, and the sheep were left in the yard for a couple of weeks. The defendant was convicted only on the first charge, and on the second charge he was convicted and fined £3 with costs.
