7615. Adulteration  of milk.   V.  S.   *    *    *   v.  Roberta JJ. Lynn.   Collateral 
of $5 forfeited.    (F. & D. No. 505-c.)
On August 19, 1919, the United States attorney for the District of Columbia, 
acting upon a report by the Health Officer of said District, filed in the Police 
Court of the District aforesaid an information against Roberta L. Lynn, Bris- 
tow, Va., alleging the shipment by said defendant, in violation of the Food and 
Drugs Act, on July 19, 1919, from the State of Virginia into the District of 
Columbia, of a quantity of milk which was adulterated.
Adulteration of the article was alleged in the information for the reason that 
it had been mixed with and contained a substance, to wit, water, which reduced 
and lowered its quality and strength.
On August 19, 1919, the defendant having failed to appear, the $5 collateral 
that had theretofore been deposited by her to insure her appearance was 
ordered forfeited by the court.
