Mr. Schramm appeared for Millard. Constable Moore said he had had Millard and McGregor under observation for some time. They had been seen drinking with undesirables on frequent occasions. McGregor was sentenced to two months' imprisonment. "Drunkenness bag been her failure," said Mr. Schramm, when Millard was charged. "I'll give her a month, instead of three," said the magistrate. Accused was also ordered to take out a prohibition order.
