SALES ON SUNDAY.
APPEAL DISMISSED. (By Telegraph.—Press Association.) WELLINGTON, this day. For keeping open his shop on Sunday for the purpose of exposing goods for sale, a confectioner and restauranteur named Frank Clewe was recently fined fl and costs by the magistrate, Mr. E. W. Page. He appealed in the Supreme Court, and Sir Robert Stout to-day dismissed the appeal. His Honor said the evidence was not contradicted. Appellant did sell confectionery, but said he was selling refreshments for consumption on the premises, and that his shop was open for that purpose. In the Judge's opinion the magistrate, having found that the shop was kept open for the sale of goods, it was no defence to say it was kept open for the sale of refreshments, which was permissible. Costs (five guineas) were allowed respondent.
