Mr R. E. Stott of the P.W.D. said that the case was one of non-payment of a permit fee of $10 for n bridge connecting two lots of property,

The bridge was under the control of two landlords and on pre- vious occasions it was he who had paid the necessary rental. The other man had not refunded him the money. It was for this reason that. he wis not prepared to pay the fees

Mr Stott pointed out that the fee had been nutstanding since May 1. 1940, and if the defendant was not willing to pay in future the bridge could be demolished,
Defendant was fined $6,
