GOOD REPUTATION
Little Crime in Dunedin
TWO ROBBERS IMPRISONED By Telegraph—Press Association. Dunedin, February 2. “It is pleasing to note that your city keeps up its reputation as being the most free from serious crime of the four centres of New Zealand,” said Mr. Justice Ostler in his charge to the Grand Jury at the opening of the Supreme Court session to-day. Only two cases were on the calendar. Walter Findlay Dore and Leonard Charles Crawford pleaded guilty to robbery with violence. Dore was sentenced to six months’ and Crawford to three months’ imprisonment. No bill was returned in the case against Richard Corrigan, who was charged with indecent assault on a girl 15 years of age, the girl in the case having married the accused since the lower court hearing.
