In Flower Bed After Yacht Cruise
SMUGGLING FINE
Plymouth (Devon), Sept. 23.
CAPTAIN JOHN ERIC GLYNNE-PERCY, tall, square-shouldered and good-looking, owner of a 20-ton yacht and a large estate and country house at Newton Ferrers, was fined £200 and twenty guineas costs at Plymouth to-day for smuggling.
He pleaded guilty to frau-

It was alleged that the flowers replaced to had been carefully that it should appear that- nothing had been disturbed.
The offence arose out of a cruise
in Captain Glynne-Percy's yacht, the Harpardo. The yacht

for Guernsey from Newton Ferrers on August 3 this year.

Mr. John Wolland, defending, ex- pressed Captain Glynne-Percy's ex- treme regret for an impulse which led him to commit a serious offence. He pointed out that but for Captain Glynne-Percy's confession the mls-I sing bottles would not have been found.
It was not an intentional effort to amuggle. It was his first voyage out of England, and he was almost laughably ignorant of all the duties of an ocean-going shipowner.
When the Customs officers board- ed his yacht he found that they had overlooked a stock of spirits in another part of the yacht.
"Then he began to make a fool of himself," said Mr. Woolland. "He is not a professional smuggler. He has a large estate, a beautiful yacht, and an adequale staff. It silly and ill-considered rag at the end of jolly cruise.
