TOO DEMONSTRATIVE.
DALMATIAN FARMER'S
PROTEST.
CULVERT BLOWN UP. 1
(By Telegraph.—Own Correspondent.)
HAMILTON, this day,
The aftermath of an explosion near a culvert on the Morrinsville-Cambridge Road on August 8, was a case heard in the Lower Court to-day, when Antonio Sarich, a young Dalmatian,, was charged with discharging explosives on a public road.
Defendant stated that as the result of the construction of a culvert 70 acres of his land had been flooded to a depth of 3ft. He had no intention to blow up the culvert, but merely to make a protest. In fining accused £5 and costs, Mr. Wyvern Wilson said accused was a foreigner, but he must learn that he could not take the law into his own hands.
