Young, his assistant, C. R- Kendall "and Provincial Constable Wm. Rich on`0ctober 20 when they found a quantity of wash in a. shack in the bush on the farm owned by. the accused. Evidence as to the search and subsequent conversation with the accused was given by .the three of- ficers while Stephens denied all know- ledge of it and stated that he had not been through the bush for a number 01: years. ` s - ' ' - -vvvI-__; nu, . .. -. . .._ Booze MATERIAL % FOUND IN SHACK; .`; Tested 65%.: Property Owner Disclaims Knowledge` 1 of Outt. ~ 3 ~;What Constable Rich Saw ._-..A.-I.I- --5)-`. orposma BARRIE pos'r on-*1=1c1: Come now when.the selec_-V tion is qt its height, because"- our lines will soon commence to bebroken.

It. nenaau. , Following the presentation of the . case for prosecution, Mr. Boys asked that the case be dismissed. holding that i there was no direct-evidence that the wash andapparatus was found on the property of the accused and also that the prosecution must ,,show guilty knowledge on the part of _the accused which they had not" done. The re- quest was opposedby Donald Ross who. contended that the accussed admitted ownership of the property. , , e The Defendant s Story _ The accused stated that he had leas-. ' ed'the bush in `question six years ago- to Chas. _Harris and had not been in` it himself since then, except on two l occasions, once with a prospective pur- chaser and again to remove"the root from another shack-that stood in a different part of thebush from that found by the officers. Pressed by Mr. Ross as to why he_ took'the roof 'from"the shack, he stated `that he did not wantanyone to use it. He admit- ted that he might have had` some sus- picion at the time that someone was using the shack butihe did not recol- lect it`. He said he knew nothing of the shack discovered by the officers and had nothing to do with the stuff `found on the place. No one, he said. I had a. shack there with his consent. ."
