Walked Across Tay Bridge - Jute Workers Fined
For having walked across the Tay Bridge after having lost the last boat from Newport on a Sunday evening early last month three Dundee Jute workers were each ordered to pay 25s at Dundee Sheriff Court yesterday.
The trespassers, who were prosecuted by the London and North-eastern Railway Company, were:- John Duffy (32) jute worker, Hilltown, Dundee, Florence McLean (24), cop winder, Hilltown, Dundee and Annie Wilson, jute weaver, c/o Glebe St, Dundee.
It was stated that another woman who was in the party gave a false name and address and could not be traced. Sheriff Malcolm imposed a fin of 15s and 10 s expenses on each, with the alternative of 10 days’ imprisonment. He allowed 21 days to pay.

Holiday Hint
If you are going away on holiday do remember to unscrew your inner letterbox, and your mail will drop right through onto the mat. If the basket is left in place its one to ten that the heavy mail will protrude through the slot. Just an invitation to thieves in both senses. In the first place they can take your letters, and in the second they can see from the road that the house is uninhabited - F.M.L., Aberdeen.
