THE HAILEYBURIAN THURSDAY, JULY 25th, 1929 Page 2 Pays With Life For Murder of Inspector Ivanchuk Goes to Gallows Still Maintaining Innocence; Says Heart is Clean Maintaining his innocence to the end, John Ivanchuk, convict- ed of the murder of License In- spector Harry Constable at Coch- rane on the night of October 15th 1926, paid the supreme penalty of the law at an early hour on Fri- day morning last at the district jail here. He walked unaided to the scaffold and, when asked by the hangman, Arthur Ellis, if he had anything to say, replied "I have nothing to say, my heart is clean." Immediately the noose was adjusted and about eleven seconds after he had left his cell the trap was sprung. >ome twelve minutes later he was pro- nounced dead by Dr. Arnold, the jail physician. It had been expected in some quarters that the prisoner would make a statement of some kind before his execution, as police and officials had the idea that there might be others concerned in the murder, but nothing of the nature materialized The con- demned man had, up to a few days before the death sentence was to be carried out, refused the services of a spiritual adviser, but had finally asked for a priest and Mgr. Dupuis had visited him on several occasions and was with him when he was removed from his cell to be taken to the scaffold. Four uniformed officials escort- ed the prisoner on his last march. They were Sergeant Delves, of the Provincial Police, Constable Delaney, of the R.C.M.P., Chief of Police MacGirr and Provincial Constable Allsopp. J. B. Moore, Deputy Sheriff of Cochrane, was present officially. Ivanchuk had requested that he be escorted to the scaffold by officers in uniform guard instead of the civilian which has been on duty ever since his conviction. Ivanchuk had been sentenced by Mr. Justice Wright, at the Spring Assizes in Cochrane to die on June 21st, but a reprieve of four weeks was granted by the Department of Justice following the plea of his counsel, Harry Fine, of Ansonvyille. The latter presented some new material which he hoped would have some weight in his request for a re- trial, but this failed to prove suf- ficient to warrant interference with the sentence. The day before the execution, the prisoner had caused some disturbance in his cell by pound- ing on the iron bars and general- ly behaving in an entirely differ- ent way in which he had spent the months of his confinement: He was sullen and morose at times and refused to see three |people, two men and a woman, |who had come from Kirkland Lake to visit him. However, be- | fore the hour of execution, which had been fixed soon after mid- night, he had calmed down and |met his death steadily. Following the hanging a for- mal inquest was held by Coroner Dr. McCullough, of New Lis- keard, a jury having been empan- elled and held in readiness in the jail building. The body was bur- ied in the jail yard. Ivanchuk was 46 years of age, and a native of Bukowina. _ He came to Canada shortly béfore the war and was employed at Co- balt, later going farther north and working in various towns and mining camps. He has a wife and daughter in his native coun- try and made a will in June leay- ing some property to his daugh- ter. The Cobalt Mines Hospital sued the Grace Lake Mining Co. for a bill of $152.50 in Division Court here last week. The claim was based on the fact that Arthur Fortin, who had worked 12 days at the mine, claimed that he had contracted rheumatism there and spent 61 days in the hospital asa result.

"It's your turn have Mother .. ." iS (Seppe: thy father and thy mother." Most of us remember the commandment but in later life when we become fathers and mothers ourselves we are apt to consider the responsibil- ity for our own parents' upkeep a bit ofa burden. Cases are not rare where family quarrels have arisen because children don't want mother or father unloaded on them for so many months each year. Well, do you, yourself, want to be in this posi- tion when you will have become old? Certainly not! Then prevent it, so far as lies in your power, by setting aside a part of your earn- ings now, so that, when the time comes, you will not need to sacrifice your self-respect by becom- ing a burden to your children.
