AFTER SIX
AND HE DIDN’T STOP EN ROUTE There are times when a motor driver may have incentive to stop in the course of a trip. There was no'such need for Thomas Weatherburn, who appeared before Mr C. R. Orr-Walker, S.M., at Wellington,' charged with negligently driving a motor car in Lambton Quay. “The constable asked me if I was in a hurry,” said Weatherburn to the bench, referring to the evening when he knocked the rear of a motor cycle. “I couldn’t have been in a. hurry; it took me ten minutes to reach the Midand Hotel from Tory street.” The magistrate: Are you sure you didn’t stop en route?
The witness: No. It was after six o’clock.
