Abstract

The defendant was convicted for the misdemeanor of cutting down Alder trees and grassing within the forests property without authorization. The court was based on his confession in the report made by agents of the water and forests office. This report should be used as lawful evidence unless contested for wrongfulness. Consequently, the appealed decision was well founded and sufficiently justified.
