    3. HBH 1890 May 17 Court Before Mr J H VAUTIER J.P. Resident Magistrate Court yesterday- William RENNIE for being drunk in the Botanical Gardens- - dismissed with a caution Frederick LYNASS, just out of gaol after a sojourn of six months there, was charged with drunkenness. He pleaded that in the newly- found joy of liberty, and of meeting with dear old friends, he took too much liquor, and the joy, and the friends, and the liquor were, combined, too much for him-fined 5s and costs and ordered to pay the price of a cab fare, for his joy was so great that nothing less than that mode of progression to the lock-up would serve.
