pleaded guilty to robbing the bank of montreal at king of 910 the pair elected jrlal by magist rate keith arthur roebuck k c appeared for darwent while kirk land was represented by herbert lennox k c unemployment and hard times were given as the reason for the two accused mens actions crown suggests irishes crown attorney c frank moore pointed out when evidence was con cluded that the lasn and life could be imposed for the charges hp suggested a severe penalty the crown feels that lashes might he imposed but that is up to your worship he said magistrate keith remanded the pair until wednesday november 19 for sentence although three banks have been looted only the evidence in the unionville robbery was heard the crown pointing out that all the robberies had been staged in a similar manner tells of robbery g g maynard manager of the unionville bank related how men entered his bank ordering himself md three employees to lie down on the rioor kirkland entered the vault but couldnt open the door he testified he then ordered tho teller and myself to open the safe then com manded us to return and lie down on the floor again when i turned to take a good look at darwent he was threaten ed with a gun kirkland then entered the vault and rifled the safe the bank staff was next ordered into the vault and the door closed by the robbers being wedged shut by a block of wood when they went out one man shouted were the same two who held up the bank at agineourt not the man whom they are holding related the bank manager defence counsel lennox pointed to this as a point in kirklands favor its not every one wlio is go ing to admit responsibility for a robbery for which another man is held he declared he explained that while guns had been carried they had not been used character evidence rev j b lindsell rural dean of muskoka testified to the- previou good standing of jack darwent the atoised mans twin brother also gave character evidence while mr roebuck admitted the charges were serious ho pointed out darwent was not an imported criminal and was out of the class of the hardened lawbreaker he re ferred to darwents two years service overseas both solicitors claimed their clients of previous good standing had been forced in to robbery because of inability to secure employment mr lennox pointed out that kirk land had confided to him he had not tlie same scruples about robbing an institution rather tnan an individu al who might be as hard up as him self as no one suffered directly when an institution was looted says robbery planned this robbery was premeditated as t lie men went there with a wedge of wood with which to jam the vault door pointed out the crown in umming up it is never tho in tention of bandits to shoot they go into tho bunk after money usually they are bolstered up by dope or drink and in a state of intense nervous excitement and it is a short cry from a nervous finger on n trigger to a shot being fired theres enough power in this to blow half a man to pieces at short range declared mr moore holding up the shell of the ugly 13 army revolver used in the holdups he said the bank employees could not be blamed for obeying orders given by gunflourishing bandits i think they showed very good sense commented hie cadi mr moore then suggested a severe penalty his worship remand ing the prisoners information for the busy
