On July 3, the children were in the yard going through their drilling exercises. Defendant, it was alleged, came out to the ver andah of his fint, and shouted that if they did not stop their noise he would come down and strike them.
Mr. Rendall said the summons was laken out to ensure that the complainants would be given pro- tection. He pointed out that people came to live in the vicinity of the school on their own accord, and should expect a bit of noise. Children, he said, always had and always would make a certain 1 amount of noise.

Defendant denied the allega- tions, saying that he did not throw any water on the school-children at any time.

The case was accordingly put back, but when it was called again. his Worship said he could not go on with the case as he had several other cases to take. He suggest- ed an adjournment.
