Prisoner Remanded After Cheque Incident at Port Augusta
A prisoner claimed he had not informed the pan of receiving the cheque due to lack of time at Port Augusta. Information from Port Augusta led to a search at the Commercial Hotel where he had left. He was later found stowed away behind the banks in the fore castle of the Meander, a vessel bound for sea. He denied knowledge of the watch, said he might have been drunk when taking the cheque, and asked for M Donald to be released. A remand to Port Augusta was ordered to secure witness Cox’s attendance.
