    3. HBH 1892 Nov 2 4 Waipawa Court This morning at the Resident Magistrate's Court, before Messrs S. JOHNSTON and INGLIS, justices. A boy of 16 or 17 named Roderick M'KENZIE, was charged with breaking into a cottage tenanted by Mr R. HARDING'S ploughman on Saturday night, and stealing a pair of boots and 5s in money, the property of John DUNN. - Remanded till Wednesday Richard POOLE-charged with being drunk and disorderly and using grossly obscene language on the street, and evidence was given that he was turned out of the Settler's Arms twice. The Bench pointed out that he had twice before been convicted on similar offences and the punishment did him no good. He was fined £1 with 2s costs or 14 days on the first charge, and sentenced to two months on the second, in all two and a half months. A young fellow, who walked by the aid of two sticks, named George W. CROSS, was arrested this afternoon and brought before the Court on a charge of absenting himself from his work as an apprentice to G.W.BEER, cabinetmaker, NAPIER. It appears that the young fellow was suffering from an affection of the legs, and had for some weeks been an inmate of the Napier Hospital. As he was improving Dr. MENZIES gave him a certificate recommending a month's change of air in the country, and on the strength of this the boy joined his sister and her husband and came on here. He was remanded on the application of the police till tomorrow, at the Resident Magistrate's court Napier.
