Irish Sweep Sued For £60,000 By Ticket Agent
Dublin, Nov. 28. Strong comments on the "fool- proof organisation" of the Irish Sweepstakes were made by Mr. Ceoghegan, K.C., in the High Court here to-day in the course of a claim for £60,000 damages against the promoters.
Mr. James Robb Stanhope, of Durban, Natal, alleged, that he was held up to publie odium and contempt," and branded as n de- faulter, because the Hospitals Trust failed to include in the Grand National draw of 1932 counterfoils he had sent them, and had failed to acknowledge, either to him or to The purchasers, the receipt of the counterfoils.
Mr. Geoghegan said Stanhope, a professional seller of lottery tic kets, sold fifty-two for the sweep on the
Grand National and for- warded the counterfoils with a draft for £22 10s., to Dublin.
