• Notes

  Queanbeyan Age (NSW : 1867 - 1904) Saturday 2 April 1898 p 2 LOCAL AND GENERAL. HORRIBLE, IF TRUE. At the Queanbeyan Police Court on Wed neaday, before Dr Richardson and Mr Gale, J.P., George Morris, of Hall, was charged with neglecting to send two children to school the required number of days. He pleaded guilty. He believed he was outside the distance, but he did not make that an excuse; be put in papers showing that the children were taught at home, but he would not use that in defence. He would not send the girl to school, and he would not pay any fine-he would go to gaol first. He had a reason. The Bench fined him is in each case, and 11s costs. Morris declined to pay. The Bench pressed him for his reason, and he told a tale that created horror. The account, shorn of indecency, was that the little girl of seven reported that two other girls and a boy threw her down and tried to outrage her. The two girls tore her clothes in holding her down. The Bench said they had no alternative, and in default of payment within seven days ordered 24 hours imprison. ment in each case, concurrent.
