The car was some distance ahead of him, and he could not see the number on it. As a result, he had the driver of his car put on some speed and he went at the rate of about: twenty-eight or thirty miles n hour himself to catch the other auto. Then he got the number of | the offending car, and had the own- | er summoned. | The Magistrate was eonvincd | from the evidence of the constable, | who was backed up by the driver of | the car, that the speed limit had | been exceeded, and imposed a fine of | 35. and costs.
