ANSWERS TO CORRESPONDENTS.
‘•Nemo,” Waikato.—A certainty cannot be considered a bet. But the case you put to us entirely hinges upon the question, Did B know Tarcoola had won the Cup ? Under the circumstances the chances are he did. A similar case was brought before Tattersall’s recently, and it was then held that bets made in a place after it was possible for the result of the race to be known, were not recoverable. Were we in A’s place we should certainly decline to pay.
