Quotations

<i>c</i>1956
We have about ten interdicts, usually on for a six month period. They don't like to be on the interdiction list. The interdicted person is a social failure as he cannot go into the beer parlour. For many drunk charges where wife beating is involved, we have them interdicted.
1965
Drink charges meant fines of $10 apiece for Christine Abel and Peter Stevens and Noah Kemajak, but Mary Drybones who is an interdict paid $25.00 on the same charge.
