CASH DOCKET IS RECEIPT.
LIABLE TO STAMP DUTY. Br Telegraph—Preea Aeaneiatlan. HAMILTON, August 28. Ruling that a cash docket was a receipt and must be stamped if the amount was over £2, the Magistrate (Mr W. Wilson, S.M.), to-day. fined the local manager of the Farmers Trading Co., Ltd., £1 for failing to stamp such a docket for cash sales totalling £4 odd. Counsel for defence claimed that the docket was issued simply as a guide to the delivery man, indicating that the goods were paid for. The Magistrate said he must conclude the docket constituted a receipt, as the amount of the sale and the name of the vendor appeared.
