"This cheque shows it was only de posited on March 15th," said Mr. Cald bick. "Are you going to make us respoIli sible for the bank‘s mistakes now? asked Mr. Schroeder. Blames Bank Stamp "How can it be? If the bank makes a mistake on the stamp I‘m not liable for that." ceipts. After another ten minutes‘ cross examination, the crown asked (re the $23 Paul cheque): â€" ‘"You don‘t show this $23 cheque as a March reâ€" The discussion then became further involved when Perreault said it was very easy to explain; he had received an amount of $40 from A. F. Carriere and had probably used part of that money instead of the Paul cheque to make the deposit balance with the reâ€" czipt? Witness said that DeLuca h#d always counted the cash at the service staâ€" tions but that he himself had checked the cash register and did the banking. "HMHow often?" asked the crown. "Many times it was two weeks after." Judge Caron: ‘"Where would you keep the cash?" "In my pocket." "One hundred and fifty dollars for ten or fifteen days?" "Many times I have had as much as $1000 up to $1500 in my pocket." Town Clrques Deposit:d Same Day Examination then went on to a falsiâ€" fied cheque in favour of O. Charette for $305.60. The date of issue was Deâ€" cember 31st, 1934. The bank mark showed it as deposited to the credit of th> Mattagami Service Station on Deâ€" cember 3ist. The deposit slip was in Perreault‘s writing. "Oh, "And yet your books balance?" *Yes."‘ Says DeLuca Counted Station‘s Cash Judge Cartcn: "Who?" "DelLuca. Because that‘s one of Charette‘s cheques. He used to make the cash." Mr. Caldbick: "Atr night." "DelLuca knew I had quite a bit of mon‘y in my pocket. He may have asked me to cash it. Sometimes it would apply on the purchase price of the stations and sometimes I would give him part in cash." ‘The Red Passbook "Well, if that‘s what happened it should be in ‘this book," , said the| crown, producing the req passbook for| which DelLuca and Perréault claimed | entirely different purposes. "I don‘t remember." Judge Caron: "According to your agreement with DelLuca, it was all to be <ntered.." ‘"Maybe at the time DelLuca may have kept part of the money." "You would have credited him with it in the beok?" "Yes. It could have happeneg that Charette wanted part of the money." _ Perreault explained that he kept quite a bit in his pocket. _ when you were in partnership "Even when you were in partnership with, DeLuca?" "Yes. Because he didn‘t bother about the books at all." t "Bocks"" of Service Stations The Mattagami and Sub Way Serâ€" vice Station "books" were produced. All they showed was the cash received andq the disbursements made. Judge Caron examined the book. ‘"The enâ€" tries are all made at the same timeâ€" the same day," he said. And later, "There‘s no use showing it to the jury, there‘s nothing in it." "That‘s just what I wanted to show the jury. There‘s nothing in it to show the partner." Mr. Schroeder: ‘"You can‘t show they‘re not right." Counsel for the deâ€" fence also rose to remark: ‘"These are the papers referred to as ‘incriminating papers‘ in a Timmins newspaper. That was very unfair." In regard to his personal account, through which many of the falsified cheques had passed. Perreault said that he had mixed the service station money up with his own until he made deposits and although the amounts might tbe right for the service station, he might sometimes deposit a town cheque to his own account. says DeLuca Made Erasures Speaking of the erasures of endorseâ€" ments from the ch:ques deposited to the two service station accounts, the "TCS. There is shown a cheque of $23 from rown ‘asked : "Who w uld do me erasing do you upp(,bp‘) ‘"Romeo DeLuca." Of the personal account cheques, the rown asked: "Therse is nothing on hese to show they were deposited in our perscnal account?" f the 27th." that the amount is shown as the cheques cashed by DeLuca, had his cwn signature in ink. on: of those deposited to the to make us responâ€" THE PORCUPINE ADVANCE. TIMMINS, ONTARIO "From what you told us, DeLuca would appear more anxfous to get Tid of your endorsements on cheques than to get rid of his own?" "HMHe may have been." Always Explains First After some discussion of the chequs for $400 in favour of Perreault from the Gonsales account, the red pass book came under fire. Mattagami Service Station was ¢nâ€" dorsed in ink. "This book was in your possession all the time?" "NQ.â€" "How did it come into Mr. Sauve‘s possession?" Perreault started to answor, but the judge cut him off short. "Your honour is cutting him off beâ€" fore he has a chance to explain," comâ€" plained Mr. Schroeder. "When I ask him a qucstiocn, he alâ€" ways starts an explanation before he answers it," replied the judge. After more questions on the passbook from which little information â€" was forthcoming, Mr. Caldbick prought his cross examination to a close with the evidence given at the first of the story. Other Defence Witnesss Those who appeared for the defence at the trial in addition to Perreault were Mr. Ince, handwriting expsert from Ottawa, who contradicted a great deal of the evidence given by the prosecuâ€" tion‘s handwriting expert, Mr. Shaw, F. Gervac, manager of the Sub Way Service Station; Emile LetourneAalu, manager of the Mattagami Service Station; and Hector Chateauvert, chairman of the finance committee of the town council. Both Mr. Gervac and Mr. Letourneau stated that DelLuca had been around the service stations a great deal of the time and that they understood he had an interest in them. Mr. Chateauvert testified as to Per-} reault‘s character and also to the signâ€"| ; ing of the payroll book. | Ralph DeLuca‘s Evidence Important | Ralph DeLuca was the only suxpuse' witness brought in by the prosecution. His testimony proved valuable in the final disposition of the case for he | swore that Perreault had taken him | over to Schumacher twice to make deâ€" | posits to the Gonsales account. | Perreault had previously denied that he had ever taken Ralph to Schuâ€" macher.
