Three Men Arrested but One Later Freed by Court. Mi1r Sudbury police this week were seokâ€" ing some reason for the apparent suiâ€" cide of 54â€"yearâ€"old Edward Davlut, 373 Bartram Ave., Sudbury. father of eight children, who apparently stuck a stick of dynamite between «his tseth and blew his head off, Saturday night. Davlut, a Russian by birth, had workâ€" ed at the Frood Mine for 10 years and was laid off two weeks ago but was supposed to start work again on Sunâ€" day. Pieces of fuse found by the body proved similar to that used at Frood Mine. . From other sources it was learned the miner had taken out $2,000 worth of life insurance about two years ago or more. The headless body was discovered beside the Frood Road between the intersection of Bartram Ave., and the Canad:an Industries Limited powder magazine about 6.55 o‘clock Saturday night. Sid Paradis, 350 Agnes St., driving a Marsh taxi with three young residents of the Frood Club to the Q@ueen‘s Alumni dinner in Sudbury, spotted the lifeless form on the road, backed his car up and got out to investigate, along with his passengers Bert King, Harold Eby and Lloyd Edwards. At first they thought the man the victim of a hitâ€" andâ€"run truck driver. Leaving the taxi driver to guard the body, the three obtained a ride into the city with a passing motorist where Edâ€" wards informed police Sergeant Fred Davidson and Chief Constable D. Louden and the two attended the call. his recovery. Three men were arrosted in conrection with the wounding and were in court on the charge of woundâ€" ing. One of them, Frank August, was freed on the charge, but the othoer tvwo, Alfred Deaevio and George Mazonelia, were remanded for a week. The story as reporied to the police is understood to be to the effect that while Jean Paul Bertiaume was on his| way home at midnight on Saturday nc was accosted by three men and interâ€" fered with. Eventually an argument developed and there seemed to be danâ€" ger of assault. Berthiaqume escapea inâ€" to his own house, and his old brother, Fdgar, hearing the row, came out 6of the house and told the men that if tasy did not go home at once, he would call the police. The three men who had stopped his ibrother were joined by three others and the six are said to have all piled on to Edgar Berthiaume. The latter put up as good a defence as he could against such odds, but in the meantime it would seem that one of those in the melee had drawn a knife| and was using it. Edgar was stabbed in the abdomen, the wound being a deep one. It seemed, however, to miss vital organs though it is said to have been fully five inches deep. Eventually the wounded man was able to stagger back into the Berthiaume house. As soon as it was seen that he was woundâ€" ed medical help was called and Edgar was then hurried to the hospital. Latâ€"| est reports from Cochrane are to the effect that he is apparently making good progress to recovery.
