Lusitania Disaster Recall at Court
A Lusitania crew member William Sleath aged 48 appeared at Casino Police Court after the 1915 torpedoing. He was fined 2 shillings 6 pence on a charge of indecent behavior in Centre Street, with 3 hours' imprisonment in default, and fined 2s 6d on a separate charge. The testimony described language similar to Swedish and Danish, confusing locals, with Hargrave recounting a van to Frederickborg and a visit to Elsinore where Hamlet's castle stood, among other details of people he met.

CONTROL OF LICE IN SHEEP
The Department of Agriculture warns lice injure sheep by causing rubbing, thrashing, and fleece damage. Thorough arsenical powder dipping helps keep sheep lice free from one shearing to the next. Keep clean sheep away from infested stock and disinfect pens and yards before reusing. Clean enclosures, litter, and manure must be disposed of to prevent spread.

Lusitania Survivor Testifies for Leniency in Court
The defendant, praised for good character by Constable Lee, recounts wartime service aboard the Lusitania. He describes being a fireman on the ship when torpedoes struck, the vessel sinking in minutes, and his rescue by a destroyer at Queenstown. He later served on an oil tanker and the troopship Transylvania, and suffered a leg injury in Salonica. He has since worked across the State, including the Richmond district.
