Miss Kalynko's youth and good reputation, as well as her high strung personality were all taken into consideration when His Worship passed sentence. He warned Miss Kalynko and all present that in proportion to the seriousness of the offence a fine of $1000 would pot have been too small to imposse under such circumstances. A charge of assauit had been laid by Miss Kalynko against Gileich, but this was dropped when Mss Kalynko was convicted on the hear- ing against her. The affgir occurred on the even- ing of July 30 in the Albert street Hall when a difference arose be- tween Miss Kalynko and Gilevich while they were both present at a wedding festival being held there.
