Must Not Trespass
James and Emma Webb, of Pitts field, had John Steward arrested recently for hunting on their premises in violation of the statute making it unlawful to hunt for game with firearms, dogs or otherwise on any enclosed lands or premises of another in any county of the state without the consent of the owner or lessee. Mr. Steward was brought before Justice Pond last Friday morning and plead guilty, whereupon he was fined $5 and $2.70 cost, which he paid. Mr. and Mrs. Webb claims to have been greatly annoyed by hunters, and in order to protect themselves they have placed signs at various places on their premises, waroing people not to trespass. Notwithstanding this, persons have continued to hunt over the lands un til they have became convinced that the only way to prevent the miisance is to prosecuteall offenders. This they intend to do in the future.
