Police Court
For Medical Examination:-
Arthur Halvey, a middle-aged Irishman, was charged with using threatening language to his wife, and also with being of unsound mind.
He answered His Worship's questions intelligently, and denied using bad language.
He was remanded in custody for a week, the magistrate ordering him to be kept under observation, telling Halvey that he would be able to go away on Monday if he behaved himself.

New Zealand Herald, 24th February 1903
A Family Affair:
Arthur Francis Halvey (33) was charged with being guilty of unseemly conduct towards his wife.
Accused assured the Court that he loved his wife from the bottom of his heart till his mother in-law came on the scene, and that he had never used the language imputed to him in the information.
In answer to His Worship, accused said he had been 13 years in the colonies, and was a native of County Galway.
He did not mind going back to gaol, as he was treated very considerately there, but begged to be allowed to go to the goldfields.
His Worship remanded accused for a week for medical treatment.

Arthur Francis Halvey died in a lunitic asylum in 1904
