ASSAULT ON A PUPIL TEACHER.
[by telegraph.—prebs association.] Dukedin, Friday. A peculiar assault case has been heard at Balclutha. George Mitchell met Miss Campbell, a pupil teacher, coming from school, slapped her on both cheeks, struck her a severe blow on the forehead with his fist, knocked her hat off, and made her nose bleed, exclaiming at the same time, "You brute, I will kill you." Mitchell alleged that Miss Campbell had severely-punished his daughter, and that meeting her he lost his temper and boxed her ears. He was fined £5 and costs.
