alive to travelling pedlers:
"The latest and most diabolical
plot to destroy human lives was
shown up last week when a travelling
fakir peddling an innocent looking
court plaster was arrested over at
Henderson. When searched at the
police station over 100000 in cur
rency was found on his person, and
this made the officers more suspicious
than at first, and it was decided to
fully investigate. A sample of his
court plaster was sent to Council
