witness called by the crown in his testi mony sarginson stated that he had been notified about the fire at 230 pm on august 5th and that he had gone out to investigate it and had found that he needed help so he called the reeve and firefighters from the village went out with the pumper at once and that the fire had been put under control at g30 pm 3 hours after it had been re ported he then stated that with the help of provincial constable kellog they had made a search for the cause and had found a spot where a camp fire had been burning and on further investigation learned that the party who had the camp fire had moved on to a lake some 3 miles away with the provincial constable he had gone after them and he brought them back to the scene where they admitted that they had camped there over night and that they had built a fire to cook their breakfast but that they had poured the con tents of the tea kettle and pot over the fire before leaving and they thought it was out when asked by the crown if there had been a better place in the vicinity to have a camp fire mr sarginson stated that there was a fkit rock about fifty feet from the spot and that there was a small gravel pit about seventyfive feet away where it would have been fairly safe to have a fire the next question was what scmolqay ssss even our bread is special when it comes to healthgiving goodness for school

like to have but what we have is as tasty as any cake or scone line can be stouffville bakery would you suggest in regards to putting out a camp lire and he answered that the only safe way was to take a shovel and bury it or loosen up the earth about the fire and then to pour water on it he then was asked if the defendant had taken these steps and the answ er was no chief of the county police mr w dovell was the next witness and he displayed a series of pictures that were taken about two days after the fire and showed the course of the fire branching out from the original spot mr arnold took the stand in his own defence and stated that lie had done everything he knew of to make sure that the fire was out when he left but he did not know that fire would burn down into the ground the way this one had and that being from the city he had no experience in the woods he was sorry for all the trouble he had caused and was glad that the dam age was not greater crown attorney j c anderson in summing the case for the crown said we have two big industries in this district they are lumber and the tourist trade and if we lost the first through careless tourists we would soon loose the second through lack of trees and therefore he thought that the court should impose the limit of the sentence as a lesson to others and teach them to be more careful after deliberation magistrate gee found that the accused guilty under section 515b of the criminal code and sentenced him to two years suspended sentence and cost of the fire markham trio win coveted cup with a decision not reached until
