The Westport Times. AND CHARLESTON ARGUS. In the cause of Truth and Justice we strive. THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 22, 1872.
We think it right to give publicity of the following opinion of a Provincial authority (Mr Jordan), that brands of all cattle shipped from Wanganui to the West Coast must in future be notified, before shipment, to him. He gives the following clauses of a Provincial Act as his guide : " Every person, who shall be about to ship cattle from any port in the Province of Wellington, shall, at least four hours before shipping the same, deliver to the Cattle Inspector at such port, or any other person appointed for the purpose, a description of the cattle intended to be shipped with the brand or brands, if more than one on them or any of them." Again, "If any person about to ship cattle shall neglect to deliver tu the Cattle Inspector, or other person appointed to receive the same, a description of the cattle intended to be shipped by him with the brand, or brands if more than one on them, or any, at least four hours before shipment of the same, such person shall forfeit and pay a I sum not exceeding £50."
