Strong opposition to the granting of bail was made 'in the Magistrate's Court today by Detective Sergeant McLennan, when Mary Ann Wearne, aged 60, a domestic, was charged with wilfully using an instrument, with intent to procure a miscarriage. Counsel’s application was made after the police had asked for a week’s remand, counsel saying that accused was a well-known resident of Wellington and owned freehold property. Detective-Sergeant McLennan said the girl concerned was only fifteen years old and had been admitted to a hospital late last night. Bail was refused.
