Keddle, Eacj —George Tuck and Charles I egg, for
being drunk and disorderly, at Halstock, were fined
40e. each, and costs be, each. The full penalty
would piobablv not have been enforced, but for the
unseemly levity both defendants displayed in court,
and when the police were ordered to keep them in
custody till the tine was paid, they were most
ludicrously chapfallen, to the amusement of the
auditory. In default of payment two months hard
labour.--Matthew Gear, for being drunk and
riotous at Charmouth, was fined Is, and costs 55.--
John Legg, for assaulting George Legg, at Milton,
was fined 2s. 6d. and costs lie., or 14 days' imprison-
