NO DAYS OF GRACE.
Magistrate Describes Letter as Impertinent. “ This man has written to the Court in rather an impertinent manner,” said the Magistrate (Mr E. D. Mosley) this morning, when Henry Giles Livingstone was charged with driving a motor-car without being the holder of a license. The Magistrate read a letter, with a license for June 14 enclosed, which stated that defendant understood fourteen days’ grace was generally allowed in such cases, and it was a pity’ the traffic department of the City' Council had not taken greater notice of it. “ Have you ever heard of such a rule, Mr Macintosh?” asked the Magistrate. “No,” said Mr H. Macintosh, Chief Traffic Inspector. “ Neither have I.” said the Magistrate. “ Then defendant continues in a way I am not going to read out,” added Mr Mosley. Defendant was fined 10s and costs.
