The pound book was inspected and it was found that stock belonging to Mrs McGuire and Mr Free had been pounded again since a warning had been sent to them that they would be prosecuted if their stock were seized again.   It was decided to take proceedings against the two offenders.


Could this Mrs McGuire have been a recent widow trying to keep up the farming operation ?

The case for the police was conducted by Chief Detective Mcllveney; Mr Hunter appeared for the McGuires and McCullough, and Mr Alpers for Wormald. Mr Cassidy appeared to watch the case on behalf of the Mount Magdala Reformatory.

Re possible sisters as detailed by SignalHill:

1896/15960   McGuire    Margaret           Catherine     Patrick
 was Q3 Carterton

1897/6546     McGuire    Myrtle Eileen      Catherine     Patrick Percy Daly
 was Q3 Christchurch ??  (hard to read, but definitely no Carterton)

1904/3531     McGuire    Daphne Gwynn   Catherine     Patrick Daly
 was Q2 Dunedin

So if they were sisters, their parents were moving around
