An Indian constable stated that he saw defendant's dog in Gran- ville Road without a muzzle at 10.30 am The dog went into the house and he rang the bell of No. 12, but was told by the defendant to get out.
Defendant admitted that the dog was in the street but denied that it had no muzzle. He said that after the constable had rung the doorbell, the dog was still in the street, with a muzzle. When the constable wanted his name and
