REFORMATIVE TREATMENT.
(press association telegram.) ■ HAMILTON, November 30. Frederifck William Goucher, aged 29, a gardener, was sentenced by Mr Justice Blair, in the Supreme Cburt to-day, to three years' reformative treatment on five counts of indecent assault. Counsel said that Goucher was unable to control his passions. He was willing to undergo an operation, or any treatment. Dr. Hockin said an operation would be useless. Hard work among healthy-minded men might assist. The Judge, in sentencing, said he regarded Goucher as a sick man.
