CONVICTION QUASHED j
Below will be found a report of
a case heard a short timer ago at
Os ood
Hall,' c
g , Toronto, which will
be of iinterest • to many • .of our
readers. The defendant, a (mer-
chant of Staffa, was convicted by
a Justice of the Peaee..at Hensel!
for selling goods. from a wagon on
the bourec,ary road between the
counties of Buren and Perth with -
cut a lieelnse. For the prosecution
it was contended that a Hawkers'
and Peddlers' By -lain of the county
of Huron, which prohibited hawk-
ling'and peddling "within the noun -
of Huron" without a license, made
the defenclant liskle'to a penalty.
The convicting 'Justice adopted
this view and made a coin'iotioe,
,and the defendant moved before
a High Court Judge to quashi the
coinviction, with the result shown
in the following report which, ap
peered in, the Toronto daily papers.
