    • NO LIQUOR SOLD AT GIRL'S PARTY

      Lorentz Seiling Was, However, Warned By Magistrate Who Gave Him Benefit Of Doubt


      Lorentz Seiling. of Breithaupt street, who was charged a week ago with keeping liquor for sale in connection with a party held at his house in honor of the seventeenth birthday anniversary of his daughter was found not guilty by Magistrate Weir in police court today. Seiling was represented in court by W. J. MeGibbon.

      The charges were laid against Seiling as a result of an altercation during the party with Andrew and Gregory Laflamme, who were put
      out of the house after they had been served with beer in the cellar.

      It was shown in evidence that a collection was taken up at the party among the guests to provide a birthday present for the girl and to defray the expenses of the lunch and the music, thru his solicitor claimed that none of the money collected was for the beer which was given to the guests free. In disposing of the case after giving Selling the benefit of the doubt Magistrate Weir told the defendant that in future he should be careful not to associate beer with his social entertainments. The magistrate stated that it was hardly appropriate that a father should start his daughter into the world on her seventeenth birthday by serving beer at her anniversary party.
