I also think if Mr. Pitt, had `not, been stopped that he would have made further sale in the same way.` Now, air, is this fair to our merchants in the jewellery business who have large rents, taxes etc_.,\ to 4pay?I claim not and as an officer I am - bound, no matter who the parties may be-`to. stamp out this means of taking the trade away from those to whom it justly be- longs. Any just minded person will acknow- ledge that this is right. To further simpli- fy this case I will quote the Act. The word Hawkers shall include, all persons who, being agents for persons not resident within a the county, sell or o'er for sale tea, dry goods or jewellery or carry and expose samples or patterns of any such goods to bejzafterwards delivered within the county to any person not being a wholesale or retail dealer in such goods, wares or merchandise.
