The magistrate relied on the police evidence and sketch which misidentified roads and contradicted the official map; the appellant's sketch and evidence, which the magistrate did not inspect, aligned with the official map and would likely have led to a different verdict; because the conviction rested on a misapprehension of material facts the conviction was unsafe and must be set aside.
