She said they travelled in McConnell's car, and that al- though she cashed a cheque utter- ed by' Rosebush against the name of Robert, Collocott, McConnell had no knowledge of why they were therg and that he received no money, as far as ehe knew, She gave testimony that on Aug- ust 13, she came down again with Mp, McConnell, Mrs, McConnell, their son, Raymond, his young friend, Stuart Oary, and Rosebush. She told of Rosebush giving Stuart Carr $2, which he was to deposit in the bank and get a cheque book, which he was to bring back.

On being asked {by the crown, she said she had {married McConnell four years ago in Toronto. The witness could not rememher the date on which she was masried, but sald it was some- time in September. Who officiated at the ceremony, Mrs. McConnell could not say, nor did she remem- [her the street or house at which | the ceremony took place. She re- | called however that it was at a | minister's house, | Counsel for defense then said that | witness was not a compellghle wit- | ness, since she was the wife of the | accused. The crown helieved that it was up to the defense to prove the woman was married to the ac- cused, but Mr. Willmott contended that the onus of proof rested with the Crown, since the woman had declared under oath that she was married to Mr. McConnell. Magis- trate Ward asked if an adjourn- ment wae wanted, but neither coun- sel wanted it. The womap's testi- mony was allowed to go on, subject to protest by defense counsel. It developed, however, that the witness was unable to tell apy- thing of what happened, on August 13 when she came accompanied by the party from Toronto to Bowman- ville.

He told of buying gas and gil for McConpell's car, apd paying him $5 a trip for bringipg him to end from Bowmanville, On ope occasion he paid an installment on McConnell's car when the latter had heen laid off. Defense Counsel Willmott thep ssked for a dismissal on the ground that there was no proof adduced that McConpell had forged apy che- ques or that he had knowingly par- ticipated in any of the ill-gotten gains. Acting Crown Attorney Co- chrane did not oppose the motion, picious.
