Last week while the company at Kirkâ€" land Lake were being gone over to loâ€" cate some information as to past busiâ€" ness, there appeared befor> the surprisâ€" ed eyes of the investigator, 50 shares of Hollinger stock, stuck away between some bills or recéipts. On the market toâ€"day they are worth approximately $900, but had the man been tempted to sell them at the 1929 low, they would have realized only $200. At the time he bought the shares, he was managing a business in Kirkland Lake that has branches all over Canada and the United States. When he was moved by his firm to Ottawa, he lost track of the stock. He knew it must be arcund somewhere, if not burned or lost by mistake, for he has been resgiving dividends on it since that time. But he couldn‘t sell the stock, for he could not produce the certificates. A story of how a man lost a certificate for 50 shares of Hollinger stock in 1924 or 1925 and how they came to light ten years afterwards is told this week of a former Kirkland Lake manager.

It would serve no good purpose for me to say anything to you about the nature of the act which you committed. If at the present time you feél no remorse for the commission of the crime, no words of mine can make you appreciate it. I do earnestly you to seek the consolation that your religion affords you.

You can ask forâ€" giveness for your sins and forgiveness will riot. be denied you." Judge Sentences Man Conâ€" victed of Murdering Mothâ€" er. To Hang on May 2nd. Vermilyea cntered court in a neatly pressed brown suit,. His closeâ€"cut iron grey hair was slicked down. He apâ€" peared more composed than the three provincial police guards who hurried him through the corridors. Every seat in the court room was fillsd long before the opening Tuesday. Hundreds of curious milled about the front steps. Spezsial guards had diffhâ€" culty in handling the crush and keepâ€" ing the corridors clear. In the rows of spectazors many women sat and knitted patiently. In passing sentence today up on the fcrmer Ontario, Calif., fruit exchange employe, Mr. Justice Jeffrey said "The sentence of the court upan you, Harold Vermilyea, is that you be taken from here to the plazse from which you came and kept there in close confinement until the second day of May and upon that date you be taken to the placse of execution and hanged by the neck until you are dead. And may the Lord have mercy upon your soul." An assize court jury Monday night brought in its verdict of guilty after four hours and 31 minutes dcliberation. The verdict disregarded the defénce plea of insanity at the time of the slayâ€" ing of 79â€"yearâ€"old Mrs. Aurelia Verâ€" milyea last October 4. Word from Belleville this week told of the sentencing of Harold Vermilyea to hang on May 2nd. Stoical calm and unconcern that marked Harold W. Vermilyea throughâ€" out 10 days of trial for the murdcr of his mother wavered on Tuesday when he stood before Mr. Justice Nicol Jefâ€" frey and heard pronouncement of death by hanging May 2. While sentence was being pronounced Vermiyea‘s usual slight pallor became ashen. He rubbed his hands nervously together and shifted them from pocket to pocket. At the end of the dsath senâ€" tence he turned quickly, g#abbed the air cushion he has used throughout the long trial and was taken under close guard quickly to his cell. YÂ¥ 28TH, 1935
