XI. A Bye-Law to Regulate the Sale by Weight or

And whereas, with a view to prevent fraud and unjust
dealing, it is necessary to provide Regulations in reference to the sale or disposal of marketable commodities

the authority in them vested, that from and after the
date of this Bye-Law coming into operation, the following shall be the Regulations in force:—

    for every such offence a sum of two pounds.

    bye-law, shall be payable to and recoverable by the
    Corporation of the Town of Oamaru.

XII. A Bye-Law to restrain the keeping of Houses of
Illfame in the Town of Oamaru.

Whereas it is necessary for the peace and comfort of
the inhabitants of the town of Oamaru, that houses of
illfame and repute within the said town should be re-
strained, and, if possible, suppressed: Be it, therefore,
ordered and directed by the Council of the said town,

by virtue of the authority in them vested, that from
and after the date of this bye-law coming into force,
any person keeping any such house, or being the
reputed proprietor and occupier thereof, or having the
chief control or management of the same, shall forfeit
and pay the sum of ten pounds to the Corporation of
the town of Oamaru for every such offence. And all In-
spectors of Nuisances of the said Council, or other officer
their being Special Constables, are hereby required to
lay and prefer informations for a breach of this bye-law,
at the instance, or on request, of any two respectable
householders resident in the neighbourhood of such re-
ported house of illfame and repute.
