EXCESSIVE MOTORING SPEED-THE…
EXCESSIVE MOTORING SPEED-THE MOTORIST AND THE POLICE WATCH. John Holland Cheshire, of 9, Mount Road, New Brighton, was summoned for driving his motor car at an excessive speed. Mr Elford H. Robertv, Holywell, appeared for theproseou tion. -Acting -Sergeant Kingsbury stated at three p.m. on the 22nd of May, he with Polioe- constable Parry (Nannerch) and Mr J. J. Roberts, Beech Cottage, were stationed on the main road from Mold to Denbigh, and from near the entrance to Caerwys Station a measured distance of half a mile was marked out. The constable and Mr Roberts were stationed at separate points to signal the approach of a car and when it crossed the line, he (Sergean' Kingsbury) had a stop watch. A car entered the set half mile and by the stop watch he found ifc had travelled at over 20 miles an hour. He signalled to Police-const able Parry about 40 yards ahead to stop the oar. The car was stopped in about 20 yarde. He went to the driver and informed him that he had exceeded the limit, having done the half mill in 59 sees., which showed that the car had travelled at sligh ly over 30 miles an hour. He enquired the driver's name abd he produced his license, trom which he ootained his name and address. —The defendant, Mr Cheshire, asked the witness When you set the watch did y >u notice the minute ?—.iergeont Kingsbury: No, I d:d not want to do so—I don't ask whether you wantad tu do so or not. Did you notice the minute ? -No, I did not. -Polioe-ec netable Parry gave corroborative evidence of the way thespeed was timed. The defendant p illed up m 20 yards after he signalled him Ls is! 'OF.-Diteudaiit Do you suggest that travelling at 30 miles an hour we could pull up in 20 yards ?- Witness I don't know what you were travelling at. I only know you pulled up tto I say.-Defendant addressing the Bench, said blunders had been made by the police trap. It was the usual blunder committed by inexperienced policemen when taking time with a stop watoh. Instead of noticing the minute when he started the watch, the officer started the watoh and his whole interest was centered on the car, and he maintained that the seoond finger weIJt round one minuta and round again almost before the officer stopped the watch.—The Magistrates retired to consult, aud after some delay return- ing to the court, the Chairman stated the Bench decided to convict. Excessive speed was getting a serious matter in that part of the country. Oa the half mile track at Pwllgwyn, there were seven inlets to the main road, and such a speed as 30 miled an hour was a danger to the public in the use of the road. Fined £ 5 and £1 16s. costs.—Defendant gave notice of appeal on the ground that there was no evidence to convict him.

MAHOMEDAN FUNERAL IN MOSTYN…
MAHOMEDAN FUNERAL IN MOSTYN CHURCHYARD a HINDOO CEREMONY. In Mostyn churchyard on Tuesday evening, a funeral service was conducted in which none but the immediate mourners Could in any way join. The interment was that of a Lascar fireman of the steamship "Ascma now lying in Mostyn Deeps, discharging a cargo of close upon 7000 tons of manganese for the Mostyn Iron Works. The steamship arrived from Bombay some i days back. One of the crew of Lascars (of whom there are over 40), a man of 28 years named Sharfa Cama, was taken ill of dysentry and died on Tuesday morning. It Was necessary, owing to the steamer having to leave for South Wales to take out a cargo coalj that the funeral should not be delayed, and Captain Carr, who is in com- mand of the ship, took steps for the burial of the deceased man. The Vicar of Mostyn facilitated the arrangements for the interment in every way. About seven o'clock in the evening, the remains of the deceased man, enclosed in a plain stained coffin minus name plate or furniture, was lowered from the deck to a small boat and rowed ashore. Landing at the Quay, the funeral party escorted the coffin to the churchyard. Before leaving the ship, a service was held on the poop, whfch the Lascar crew, who are. aU Mahomedans, attended. The deceased Man was a native of the Punjaub, India, and one. of the customs of the country is for the natives to carry with them a shroud or Winding sheet, in which to be buried. The shroud} of the best white linen, was in this case used, the body encased being like an Egyptian mummy. With this class of ship's crews one of their number is usually a "Padre "-a priest of the faith of Islam, I he acts as their chaplain. Under the direction of the Serang" or mate, and Interpreter of the Lascar crew, tne funeral Party, ten men, all Punjaubees and of the same caste as the deceased, walked behind the boftin, which was placed in a cart and covered by the Union Jack—the flag, that protects fhem in life, and is their greatest decoration In the last sad march to the final resting, place. They were strangers on a foreign strand, yet they were British subjects. The mourners Were in their working dress, and wore vari- coloured turbans and fezes. Owing to pressure of work on the ship they were unable to put on their white dress, usual on such Occasions. At the Church gates, the Vicar met the Cortege and preceded the procession to the grave side on the south east of the church. The Christian service was brief and only insisted of such portions of Scripture as are out for such an occasion. In tne midst life we are in death," was one of the striking sentences that fell upon the ears of th*S^ Who understood it, but^o the Punjabees r had as much meaning as the j^'odusfani, in which they made lamentation ad to the crowd of people who were attracted to the funeral. The dark-skined ournrs after the Vicar's portion was ended, took their places about the coffin, which they at right angles to the setting sun, and the adre took the place of a priest, and all ^iftg off their slippers or shoes, he intoned jettons of the Koran the others responding Occasionally repeating Allah, il Allah." fpds at one time held to the temples, then ,0Jded low down on the breast, and anon eld upwards with palms inwards as though a°lding a book. The committal to the grave followed, and assembling round the °f)eQ grave, each one picked up a portion °*the earth, and handing it to the Padre, the Whole was then dropped into the grave, between the head and right hand side of the coffin. All hands helped in filling the grave and when a small headstone and a stone at the foot of the grave had been placed, prayers -ere again said and lamentation made in a Mournful minor subdued tone. As the j^ourners left the Churchyard, and when near entrance to the Church, the Punjabees j Saiu formed a semi-circle and unloosed their ot wear, while the Padre" uttered some ^e^ers' which it was afterwards ascertained Se e Equivalent to the dedication or con- }aj,,ati°n of the placa as a temple of their pr • That this was so, or tnas it was a js for a blessing from one faith to another j?°t so sure. The return was afterwards and lo S*"P* was a singer service p one that never before happened in this 5 of the country. There was a touch of doess about it. The comrades of the ^eceased seemed as though they lost a gather, their low moanings and mutterings u eiHed like the outburst of a grief stricken co^n' *n far-off India, away in the hill of of the Punjaub, is the young widow but m Ceased, who will never see his grave, m°«rn for him only as lost to her.
