BAYLY TRIAL
JURY VISITS RUAWARO (Peb United Press Association.) AUCKLAND, June 22. A full day was spent at Ruawaro to-day by the Bayly trial jury, the members "of which left Auckland shortly after 8.30 a.m. in four cars in charge of the two constables who have guarded them throughout and a court official. The party was provided with a lunch hamper and thigh waders to enable them to make a thorough inspection of the Lakey and Bayly properties and the adjacent swamps. During the address for the defence Mr Northcroft referred to a number of places to which he invited the jury’s special attention, emphasising the view of Bayly’s cowshed and Lakey’s wattletrcc paddock to he obtained from other settlers’ farms. It is therefore thought probable that the jury will visit these other farms as well as spending a lot of time on Lakey’s considering the Crown’s reconstruction of the crime. To-day was the first fine day of this week, so that' the jury were fortunate in the weather; but Ruawaro district was still sodden after the recent heavy rain.
