This was sequel to the case last week in which Mrs. Lamstedt‘s husband was fined a similar amount for having oâ€"structed the police. R The whole incident came ajout as the result of a wine party, Mrs. Lamstedt‘s evidence showed. Her husband and his brother had had several bottles of wine, aespits her protests, During the arguâ€" ment about drinking, she had hit her husbhand and the brother pushed her away. Then she deciaded to go home but the bus driver wouldn‘t her big Tom Labrash, Percy‘s brother, said he had been out to the "Greenwood farm" where Perscy and the girl were on Sunday evening and she had reâ€" fused to go back to Timmins. She didn‘t want to go back cecause she had a black eye, he said. Eqdmond Welcher corroboratsd this. Yelled but Nobody Heard Mss Morin, recalled to the stand by the crown attnrney, said, speaking of when Labrash was carrying out to the car: "I yelled a little but nobody reard me. It was 12.30. I didn‘t like to make much noise because I was afraid of him." She had not wakened until Tuesday mornirg at the farm, she swore., She hadn‘t been hit while Percy was fighting in the house, and she hadn‘t been in bed with ancther man. Lebrash, warned that he did not have to give evidence, told quite different story. Miss Morin had asked him to go down to her place late Gaturday nignt "after the old lady had gone to bed." He had arrived at about 12.30 an‘i graizbed the knob of the door. He shoved and ‘the door cpened, he said. "I found her in bed with Edgar Besky," said Labrash of Miss Morin, "and T‘d been living with her for four months." She had told him that her mother had made her do that or get out of the house, witness said. After a fight with Besky and "chewing the rag with him" Labrash asked the girl to chooss beâ€" tween the two of them and she had chosen him, so they started out together. "What were you doing flght,mg about a girl then?" "She was going with me.‘ Asked how he thought Miss Morin had been injured, Labrash said she might have got between him and Besky as the two were fighting. "You‘re under bond to keep the peace for two years?" asked the magistrate. "I tcok her out to my home," h swore, "and the next day when I wantâ€" ed to take her home, she wouldn‘t go. I never touched her in the car." Is a Married Man *‘"*You‘re a married man, aren‘t you, Labrash?" asked the> magistrate. Gecorge.Clement said Labrash had a fight in the house with another fellow soon «after he came in.

Her daughter was "very sick" when she was brought back. Mrs. Morin said. Hereyes were puifed up and her arm black with bruises. back he was gone with the girl. The police went to look for him bu‘? could Kept in Shack Till Tuesday had taken her to his place on country road and kept her there until Tuesday â€" morning when he brought her back to her home at 145 Main avenue, she said. She wasn‘t able to move around in the shack "becausc she was hurt." "Did you do anything to stop him taking you out of the hcuse?" asked Crown Attorney S. A. Caldsick. Her mother had gore out to teleâ€" phone the po‘lice, Miss Morin said through an interpreter and a Mr. Cleâ€" ment and a cousin were also outside at the time. Mrs. Morin was there when Labrash broke in, she said. ‘"Then I went away to phone the police and when I came Percy Labrash will spend three monthis at hard labour in Haileybury jJail as the penalty for having assaulted Irene Mcrin "cccasioning h<r actual nodily harm." Percy‘s story and that of his witnesses differed a great deai from that of Miss Morin and her witâ€" nesses, told before Magistrate Atkinson on Tu<sday. At 12.30 a.m. Sunday, November 8th Labrash broke open the kitchen door, Miss Morin said, had a quarrel with her, saying she was going out with anâ€" other fellow.

The atâ€" titude of Torcnto business seems to be "We cannct help it if you in the Northn are not reseiving th> attertion you should. so why take it out on us?" Which is all right as far as it goos, but it dtoes ncot go far encugh. The fact still remains that if South>rn Ontarip values the busingss it receiv©s from the North, it is up to Soythern Ontar:o to see to it that the North is ncot neglectâ€" ed. With the exception cof a very few individuals, Southern Ontaric has never concerned itself with the North at all. Practically every dollar spent hert in the North has teen grudgingly handed out. Small wonder that the North beâ€" came thoroughly fed up. And in view of the amount of business which the South does up here, small wonder that businessmen of the South are now beâ€" coming somewhat excited at the prosâ€" pect of losing that businss. And it will lose a considerable portion of it, unless the North receives the attention which it believes to be its just due."
