His Worship. What does the I. and E. Department think of this case?
Mr. Taylor.We regard this case as very serious. It is very difficult to catch the offenders.
Have we had a case like this before? We had a similar case in Weat Point about three years ago.
Are these horoin pills used for smoking7-Yes. They have the same effect as opíum but aro cheaper.
His Worship imposed a fine of $1,000 or six months, in addition to six months hard labour, in each case. The drugs and the apparatus
were ordered to be conflacated.
