crop judges decision witheld further evidence was heard at whitby on thursday in the county court by his honor judge thomp son in the action brought by edgar dure farmer of mara and former ontario county warden against the brechin milling company for al leged damages to his farm loss of crop loss of possible sales of farm products etc amounting in all to two thousand dollars plaintiff claims that he purchased from the defendants through malcolm mcntb their manager of 1930 two bushels of red clover seed represented to be it was alleged of hirst class quality the seed was sown as red clover and later weeds of a strange variety made their appearance in the clover field these being identified later by government experts at tor- onto and ottawa as pepper grass a secondary abnoxious weed which il was alleged grew up so thick that it destroyed the clover crop and caused plaintiff heavy damages at the resumed hearing counsel for the defendant company called numerous witnesses in an effort to prove that mr dure did not pur chase the alleged itefective clover seed from their manager mmcnab or from any other person in the mill on the 29th of april also that the books accounts vouchers etc of the company failed to show any transaction with mr duro on that date mr dure claimed that he paid cash 40 for the seed he purchased but witnesses testified that this could not have been the cose as there were no records to shew the transaction earl dure son of the plaintiff testified that he was with his father when the clover seed was naught from mr mcxab the defendants manager he was in the box con siderable length of time and was subject to a stiff crossexamination by defendants counsel mr harvey of orillia court adjourned until friday when the final evidence was submit ted it was agreed that both coun sel for the plaintiff and defend ants would submit written argu ments to his honor judge thomp son before a decision was given over twenty witnesses were heard in the action including ex perts from the seed branch of the department of agriculture at ot tawa and toronto the case has aroused considerable interest throu ghout the county particularly among farmers as it is somewhat unusual edgar dure the plaintiff was the final witness to take the stand on friday afternoon before the case closed being called by his counsel fred c macdonald of beaverton to give rebuttal evidence in reply to evidence given by witnesses for the defense mr dure emphatically de nied that he had made a statement to any person as alleged that he did not keep a sample of the seed which he bought trim the brechin milling company he also denied that he had said that ho had sewn his own clover seed which he had saved from his alsac under crossexamination by mr harvey of orillia defendants coun sel mr dure admitted that he had i old several persons in his district including the directors of the mill ing company that he did not know it ho had paid for the seed which he alleged he purchased from the mill from malcolm mcxab the companys manager although in his statement of claim for damages he claimed that he had paid cash to mr mcxab for the seed you can lie when it suits your purpose suggested mr harvey pressing for an explanation as to why he had told some people that he did not know whether ho had paid for the seed and then told the court that he had paid cash for it mr dure explained that he had done so to protect mr mcxab as there was a story in circulation to the effect that mr mcxab had got the money he paid him for the seed and had not accounted for it wit ness said that he had every con fidence in mr mcxab and wanted to do something to protect him mr dure resented the suggestion by de fendants counsel that he lied when it suited his purpose stating em phatically that he had given the court evidence to the best of his knowledge and ability and imsm n actual facts mr dure stated further that he had taken his case to the companys directors with the hope ot getting a settlement and avoiding a court action mr dure told the court that his bethesda lad saves child from drowning the prompt action of master alex iogau sou of our storekeeper at bethesda savedthe life of little irene staley from a watery grave over at prestons lake vandorf on saturday afternoon the boy plunged into the 3 feet ot water from where he was fishing off a log and brought the little girl to land the body was quite limy and only a few moments more rescue would have been too late to save the life only children were in the immediate neighbor hood at the time young alex logan journeyed from his home at bethesda bent on having an afternoon fish at the lake ho was sitting on a log while a group of children all very young liayed at the waters edge sudden ly a scream went up and alex saw the plight of the young child she lad gone under when he reached j the body the rescued child irene staley is the granddaughter of george staley who is well known in the township the authorities should recommend alex for a medal to mark his bravery in saving the young life which he has to his credit the lad is only 11 years of age assessment court strikes a snag reeve morden polls deciding vote to sustain assessment on w b sanders residence stopped at the border the drastic action of the emi gration department at niagara last week almost brought havoc to the camp meetings now in progress at pikes bush just north of bethesda mrs alice durham evangelist in charge who is an american citizen found it was difficult to enter this country at the present time even to conduct a religious revival after having successfully passed the gauntlet of officers at the bridge she encountered one official who insisted that mrs durham should not enter thepromised land so to speak much argument and entreaty followed and although successful in getting by mrs dur ham admits that it was the most difficult passage she ever encounted on her many visits to canada the fact that the evangelist had something that would do canadians good didnt seem to have any weight with officious individuals at the portals nor did the other alter native that she was not coming to canada to carry on any profitable financial enterprise however mrs durham is not the first yankee to have been stopp ed at the border for a couple of winters ago the wellknown pastor of the churchill evangelistic taber nacle buffalo was hung up when on a trip to deliver a message at hamil ton he too finally made the journey but theye shall not enter sign hung up against him was the subject of a popular sermon he later delivered at buffalo on the text stopped at the border only two appeals came before the municipal council on monday even ing which sat as a court of revis ion on the assessment roll tor the year 1932 one was withdrawn and mr isaac boadway was then heard he appealed against the assessment of 2700 on his newly acquired property the old w b sanders place opposite the station 600 is placed against the land and 2100 on the brick residence now a double dwelling councillor rusnell moved that the assessment be reduced 200 and councillor watts moved that it be sustained assessor george storey thought the amount set by him was fair but would not oppose the court if they saw fit to reduce the amount a similar sized place is dr storeys residence assessed at 3000 this was held to be a better property but was proportinately higher said members of tho court mr boadway considered that he had been penalized with high taxes because he improved tho place and that only half was rent ed at 15 per month total taxes are 112 a division was encountered when councillors rusnell and dowswell supported tho reduction of 200 and councillors watts and weldon voted nay the reeve had the decid ing vote and sustained the assess ment at tho old figure mr boadway unsuccessfully appealed last year and said he might appeal to the judge he has five days in which to file such

in tho door and bending the fenders on account of going slow no one was injured a special session of the school board was held on wednesday even ing of last week but the press was not represented the chairman call ed tho meeting and advised tho members that it would be just as well to treat the notice of meeting subrosa meetings of public bodies held in camera invariably invite suspicion and plenty of whispering was going on so that the press which it was intended to exclude from tho gathering was cognizaut of what was taking place all tho time but we didnt want to spoil the plot and refrained front turning up on the night appointed it is currently rumored on the street that tho salaries of public school teachers were reduced at the special meeting tho street report may not be correct however at the jiay meet ing of the school board these salaries were under discussion and it was agreed to defer any action until the june meeting thus if teachers wished to speak on their own behalf they would have this opportunity to exclude the press where so wide and important matter is dealt with is hardly fair to the ratepayers the press has given the salary question for the public school a fair discussion to show the actural saving che pro posed cut in salaries would mean neither in this or no other way has the local paper embarassed the mem bers of the school board that they should shun publicity all members of tho school board were present at the closed session but all by no means favored the meeting being held under cover so to speak the members are trustees e a lloyd
