by the drivers of hackney carriages, notice was issued by
Sir It. Mayne that by the 16th and 17th Vict., c. 33, sec. 7
and 17, the driver of any hackney carriage plying for hire
refusing to carry any person any distance not exceeding
six miles from the place where hired, or for any time not
exceeding one hour, is liable to a penalty of 405., or one
month's imprisonment, and to a like penalty for demanding
more than his proper fare ; and by the Ist and 2d William

proper fare is declared not binding, and on discharging the
carriage the hirer may refuse to pay more than the proper
fare, and any persons paying it may recover the same back,
and the driver will be punished by a fine of 40s. or one
month's imprisonment for the exaction. All proceedings
must be taken before the magistrate within seven Bays after
the commission of the offence. Insti uctions have been issued
to the hackney carriage attendants to note down all

equally, but on opening the box, 10, and behold it was empty,
Few wars have been more:profitable than this to the parties
concerned.
