EAGLEHAWK POLICE COURT.
Monday, 4th June.
(Before His Worship the Mayor and Mr McLachlan, P.M.)
'NEGLECTING to Support a Child— Christopher Balderstone was brought before the Court on remand to answer a charge preferred against him of neglecting to support a child. It appeared from evidence previously adduced that Christopher Balderstone was not the father of the child, which was, however, the offspring of his wife, and therefore he was responsible for its support. The child was sent to the Industrial School for a period of seven years, an order being made on Balderstone for the payment of 5s per week for the first twelve months.
