He denied being forbidden on the property. The boy admitted climbing the trees to get a ride "as they fell.

[JBIEHDB UK was John Whan, Jr., aged 8, corro- borated Lachlan Oxford's evidence in the main. There were some discrepancies. He said Lachlan climbed only one tree to a height of eight or nine feet. He didn't hear anybody tell Lachlan. to come down. He went up the tree and asked Mr. Hegan to cut it down, and Mr. Hegan said he would cut it-down just as soon as -he finished trimming of! the cedar. Then he cut it down and it fell on a pile of logs. Then Lachlan gave a scream and hollered `O Mama all the time going home. He put snow on the wound and held it on all the way -a long time, the boy said. Sim- ilar evidence was given by Patric- ia Oxford, a girl of nine years. The `Sister's Story Lachlan went up a tree. Frank Hegan cut it down," she started, but it was decided to take the child s evidence in the form of questions and answers. It only took a half a minute to cut the tree down, she said. A real axe was used. Patricia admitted hear- ing Frank Hegan -tell Lachlan to shift his position on the tree but never heard Frank tell him to come down. She admitted talking the case over with her mother, but denied being told what to say in evidence. K VVVV -I !---LI--- - 1.2.. 1.-.. Rev. James Isoott took the deg:-`ea 0!

He heard him tell him ,to turn around when up the tree. This was the second tree on which the boy had takena ride" Gene admitted. He didn't think Hegan was trying to prevent the tree from falling; rather was he shov- ing on it to fell it. Hegan, he said, had cut it almost through when he (Tremblay) gave it a couple of blows to finish it. No one had asked him to do so. Trem- blay said he struck the last blows. Doctor Tells of Wound Dr. H. Wright, a graduate of the University of Manitoba, prac- ticing in Ontario two years, said the examination showed a lacerat- ed wound over the left eye about one and one-half inches long and about one-half inch deep. down to the ridge of the bone over the eye. The boy was placed under an `anesthetic. Four stitches were re- quired for the deep tissues and about a dozen to the skin in an effort to obviate leaving a scar. As time went on the scar will . largely disappear, the doctor said. He was not permitted to tell the court what his account was. . N 0 Criminal Intent I H. H. Creswicke, counsel for Hegan, said there was no crimin- al intent shown. It was just an unfortunate accident. It was true the man Hegan might have to go on his defence` in a civil action, but not on a criminal charge. IITLI... ....L .. luugn AA- uni-inn DUE not on a Ururuuui uuaxgc.

I Crown Attorney Evans said that no man with brains in his ` head, or his boots for that matter, would permit a young boy to climb a tree and then cut the tree down. He might have killed the boy. It's. just a miracle that he didn't. If} the lad had been struck on the temple we would have had a `fun- eral on our hands and accused would have been charged with manslaughter. The Defendant's Version The defendant told his version of the chopping or the tree.-He said he warned the boys to stay clear for fear they would get hurt. Lachlan Oxford. he said. gave Gene Trem- blay his axe and the latter found` it not sharp and they traded.

The boy himself picked the next tree. "I felt that he should not be up there and asked him to come down." Hegan testified. He .didn`t want to come down but came part way so that I could reach him.
