All fines, forfeitures, and fees went through that officer's hands, and he states that he has no remembrance of the Bill in question having been received in either the office of the Sheriff or Chief Magistrate.
Mr. McSwyney, the head clerk of the Chief Magistrate's Office, at the period in question, whose duty it was to make up all papers connected with Fees and Fines of that Court, has left the Colony.
