FORGERY Albert Ovila Gagne appeared to ansâ€" wer a charge of forgery of a cheque stolen from the Pamour mine on Decâ€" ember 24th and drawn on the Bank of Nova Scotia. Gagne pleaded guilty to the charge. Mr. S8. D. Cooke of the Pamour Mine office stated that when he went to his office on Dec. 28th he found the drawâ€" er of his desk broken into and a cheque missing, he notified police, the Bank, and it was traced to Gagne. on the stand Gagne stated that hc kad worked for two months at the Pamour and hiss cheque. Christmas amounted to $37. He wanted to buy his wifeé a Christmas.present, he said, and Asked for an advance of imoney to do so. When he was advised that he could have this advance it was too late for him to see the officeâ€"about it. He had been drinking â€" "half a bottle of rum" and when he went to the ofâ€" fice he had a dim recollection of going in and opening the drawer (it was not locked). and taking out a cheque.. He went on to Timmins,, drank again, bought his wife a new coat and nylon stockings, â€" cashed the cheque and drank ~someâ€" more, jand went home very "tight", and went to bed. Hisâ€" wife of eighteen years testified that he‘ was good: tb her, and*kind, and a good husband, and corroborated the fact. that heâ€" came=â€"home: that: nig. drunk and went straight to bed. Gagne had setved his country in the recent war from early in 1940, had alâ€" most given his life at Dieppe, and had been in hospital after that affair for six months. §( 9 He had learned his lesson, was ready to make restitution, and â€" given a chance â€" might yet make good. He had made no attempt to hide his guilt, and a good deal of the money had been recovered. ‘Gagne‘s manner on the stand W2S yeqar‘s an quite open and truthful. He made NO familton. attempt to deny or soften any aspect * of his crime. Mrs. W. His lawyer, Mr. R. Langdon, made@»ny Toronto a most eloquent plea in his defence. Gagne had been up many times for drinking but not before for a criminal offence, he said. There was no inâ€" tention of theft when Gagne went to the office, and none premeditated. Had he not been in the condition he was, due to drinking it would never have happened. An old employee of the Dome Minces who has lived in the Dome bunkâ€"house for over twenty years died very sudâ€" denly in St. Mary‘s Hospital.

On Saturday he appeared as usual and attended a hockeyw match locally. Later he was taken to hospital and died on Monday morning. The magistrate after administering a@ severe warning, and emphasising many times that he hoped the defendâ€" ant ~was cognisant of the leniency of the court, and its due appreciation by Gagne ruled that he be bound over in the sum of $500 for two years, durâ€" ing which time he was to abstain from intoxicants, and to make full restituâ€" tion within twelve months from date. The Crown Attorney stated the case for the crown. a chance to "uphold his honour" would he do so? The answer was ‘Yes‘ â€"â€" and he stated his willingness to work to repay what he owed â€" "I guess I‘m all washed up at the mines," he said, but I‘m willing to go into the bush and work, or do anything." His funeral took plact on Wednesâ€" day morning from St. Mary‘s Orthoâ€" dox Church, Rev. Father Maxim conâ€" ducting the services. SOUTH PORCUPINE Marshall Horner, of 31 Strachan Ave., age 36, died very suddenly in Porcupine _General Hospital on Janâ€" uary 3rd.
