Counsel was endeavouring to' ascertain from a witness in a bookmaking case in the Hamilton Supreme Court last week how he would do business with au Auckland bookmaker. The witness said that if he knew the Auckland bookmaker and had done business with him before he would deal with him direct, but if the bookmaker had an agent in Hamilton, he would deal with the agent. "I understand you have no bookmakers in Hamilton," remarked Mr Justice Blair. The remark provoked loud ironical laughter in Court.
