CRUEL FRAUD
A WOMAN DUPED ACCUSED GETS THREE YEARS [ Per Pi-ess Association ] AUCKLAND, Sept. 30. “These frauds wore particularly cruel and havo no faith in your statement that you will make restitution,’’ stated Judge Smith to-day in sentencing Wilfred Harold Adams, aged 28, to three years’ hard labour for false pretences and obtaining credit by fraud. Adams had pleaded guilty to duping a woman and taking from her £337, telling her his Uncle Charlie in Remuera was about to give him money to start in business. Cedric Horace Sanders got two years’ hard labour for theft at Rawenc. He had previously been on probation.
