Tan Casa WrreconeewereTwoof our
local merchants Were last week sum-
moned by, T. T. Westcott, of Exeter,
to appear before Squire Snell, of that
town, to answer to a charge of selling
goods throughout the country without
a hawker's license. • The, naercha,nts
faced the beak and owing te there be-
ing no evidence the case was with-
drawn, after several unsuccessful at-
tempts by the complainant to effect
a 'cash. settlement.. The 'merchants
have simply sent out rigs and men to
buy produce,not to sellgoods, and the
fact of honest business men being
subjectecl to such trouble aud annoy-
ance by anyone, be he constable or
civilian, without the first vestige of
substantiation, is a flagrant. violation
