James Davidson of Forbes faced a focal court on Tuesday for breach of the Day Baking Act after claiming he could not pay a fine. The magistrate gave seven days to reconsider and delayed a conviction, while John Thomas Savage and his firm were charged with baking bread before 4:00 am. Savage pleaded not guilty and insisted he acted under instruction. The court heard details of bakehouse work on Michgage Road and the involvement of the two men and owner, with the prosecution arguing the act could not be enforced. The magistrate reserved a decision, allowing Savage to pursue a temporary reprieve and costs of court.
