Most people at some time or other have paused at the fearsome legend, "Trespassers Will He Prosecuted,” printed on the menacing hoard which lawyers have described as a "wooden llnr,” for, as a matter of fact, the mere walking across another man's Held Is up more a criminal of fense than to walk along the highroad.
