Impostor charged with obtaining goods by false pretences
Leonard Graham, 25, laborer, and Harry F Angus charged by warrant with obtaining goods valued at £16 7s partly by false pretence and partly by a wilful false promise at Camperdown between June and July. The case details how he posed as a boarder, feigned illness, and promised payment from his alleged father, but police later exposed the ruse. He admitted guilt to the charge and was dealt with summarily, with a cost imposed. A further charge arises from a separate fraud at Manly involving Ada Florence Jones.

Evenings of Puzzles and Patents in a Fragment
A fragmented page shows a puzzle reflection on the tortoise and hare with arithmetic progressions and pacing, then shifts to patent medicine ads for Liver troubles, blood purification, and a peppermint cough cure for children. It blends mathematical musings with commercial remedies.
