M. Scott Esqrs. Assessors). He then brings his readers up to date on the outcome of the trial and the decision of the Supreme Court, handed down on Monday, 31 April 1828: the two assessors brought in a special verdict of damages of one hundred pounds.

The clause provides that editors of newspapers must deliver a copy of each newspaper issue, signed by the editor and the proprietor, to the Colonial Secretary on the day of publication. Failure to do so incurs a penalty of one hundred pounds for each non-delivery. The crown claimed that E. S. Hall had failed in his duty on five separate occasions and was therefore liable to a fine of five hundred pounds.
