ONEHUNGA. R. M. COURT.
"Wednesday. [Before K. C. Barstow, Esq., R.M.] Labceny.—William Bulls was charged by Constable Greene with removing a rail from a fence. From information received tlie constable went to prisoner's house and found a scMitling, rail, and some fence boards. Tlie rail fitted to tlie part of tlie fence from which, it is alleged, it was removed, and corresponded with the rails still spared. The fence is close to prisoner's dwelling, and is nearly all removed. Peraihi, a native, was living in the house from tlie back fence of which allotment he saw prisonor take the rail found in his house, and now produced in Court, lie had previously seen prisoner take some timber from Dr. Purcha9's fence. J. D. Jackson said the property belonged to a Mr. Logan, and he was airent for it. The back fenco was all removed, though most probably not by the prisoner. The Court considered tlie evidence hardly suilleient to convict, but trusted it would be a warning to all parties not to interfere with any property, liowerer small, that did not beloug to them.
