Three-mill-lane, Bromley, came before iJr Paget this
morning and asked him for a vairant against Mary Ann
Condon, the secretary of the the " Star of the East Total
Abstinence Sisters of Progress, Tent No. 2," held at Union-
ge, for refusing to pay her
30siost and
was a momber of the society, which con-
g women, any Was excluded on very insuf-
ficient
grounds. Mr Paget ordered the secretary to reinstate
her, or pay her 30s and 2s costs. in default Mrs Condon
was to be imprisoned seven days in the Hellee of Correc-
tion. Mrs Jones now stated that the sbcretary would not
pay the money or reinstate her as a
"sister,' but was very
insolent and obstinate, and said she would nu't obey the
magistrate's order, but would go to prison fir seN:en days.
There had been a good deal of litigation in the society; and
other members had been excluded at the caprice of tL:e
secretary.
Mr Paget said the law would be too strong for Mrs
Condon. He directed a minute of the order to be served
on the secretary, and if it was not obeyed a warrant would

issue.
