FALSE DECLARATION OF BIRTH.
PECULIAR CIRCUMSTANCES,
DUNEDIN, Nov. 18,
An unusual case was before the. Magistrate's Court this morning, when Celina Priscilla Graham, a married woman, pleaded guilty to having made a false statement, whereby the Registrar of Births had been caused to make a wrong registration.
It appeared that defendant had separated from her husband, who continued periodically to visit her, and this led to her losing several good situations, and consequently to elude him, she had assumed another name, although the child was his.
Defendant was committed for sentence.
