1. This is an appeal by the 3 appellants against sentence. The facts as found by the learned Magistrate were simple. All three were found in premises at Stanley, a stone hut. They were not themselves managing or running the establishment but were clearly gambling in it, therefore the proper charge was under section 6 which carries a maximum sentence of $10,000 fine and imprisonment for 3 months.
