Gloucester Police Court Hears Breach of Permit Case
At the Gloucester Police Court a light list confronted the Police Magistrate during the regular monthly session. Ephram Henry Margery was fined £1 with 8 costs for travelling stock without a permit under the P P Act. Margery, a Nowendoc resident, claimed he moved stock to Gloucester for trucking to Flemington and obtained permits late. The magistrate indicated leniency but recorded a conviction. Bonniebell H Drewe sought cancellation of a Neon Sign contract with Scanlan's New Neon Ltd for a Church Street business, arguing the sign was unused in daylight. The court cancelled the contract as of February 12, 1942, due to lack of demand and wartime trade decline.
