A FIVER
“ONE SECTION, PLEASE” A lady passenger boarded a tram at Courtenay place on Saturday morning in the busy hour, and when the conductor reached her to collect fares she staggered him by tendering a £5 note. “One section, please 1” The conductor had not the requisite change, and tjie lady and child left the car at the Cuba street stop to get change. “Over the odds," remarked another passenger. “Fancy tendering a fiver for a twopenny fare. There are plenty of banks about where she could have got change.”
