In the City Police Court yesterday morning, before Mr W. H. Freeman. S.M,. Leslie Patterson, of Lumsden, aged 25, single, a labourer, was charged with stealing at Lumsden on August 27 £l5 in notes, the property of John Holland. The accused, who was represented by Mr J. C. Prain, pleaded guilty and elected to be dealt with summarily. Senior-Sergeant Kelly said that £5 8/6 in notes and clothing to the value of £3 2/- had been recovered. Mr Prain suggested that a term of probation under stringent conditions might meet the case, but Constable H. J. Thompson, of Lumsden, said he could not recommend this course. The accused was sentenced to three months’ imprisonment with hard labour.  -Southland Times, 3/9/1935.
