Says Reeve Should be Present at Meetings Tisdale Ratepayer Writes About Last Meeting of Township Council. figd ‘hat Deputy Rseve Dr. Harper exerciscd excellent wisjom in allswing matters to rest until Reeve Kerr t spare himself to be present? Py virtue of the Reeve Korr hc‘ds I hesitate to believe that he ha« nct previously been acquainted with the knowledge that certain deparimenial investigations might be intrecduced at This eccnduct might be taken to mean that his prcosence at ths hoskey game was more important than his being preâ€" sent at the meeting to disocuss the alâ€" ways imporian! {susiness of the people. The business to which I refer concerns the almtcst daily cne hears regarding the conducting cof the po::ce dcpartment. As year after year has rolled alorz my interest and study of the duties and work that are attendant with the office of a presiding reeve and zcounzil of Tisdale township, has gradually ascendâ€" ed. Like most taxpayersâ€"who vote at electicn timeâ€"I have dwelled (ketween pericds) upon the crest of that visionary, although apparently bright hope for the future. Noew, however. since I attenrnded the regular meeting for Tisdale reeve and council (Reeve Kerr having been conspizuous by his absence) on March 22nd my ray oi ncpe is almost as dark as the dark ages. Thus has it become solely ‘because Of Reeve Kerr‘s pleasureâ€"sseking conâ€" duc? having caused him to prefer goâ€" ing all the way to Sudbury to attend a ho:key game rather than remain for the mceting and occupy the chair to which he was elssied last Decemper, for the purpose of dissussing the imâ€" portant of Tisdale taxpayers. Apart from sickness cor anything worse, Reeve Keorr by absenting himâ€" self from what should have proved a mesting for discussing kusiness of very interesting import t> the taxpayersâ€" and flying is the hocksy game in preâ€" ference to "{lying and landinz" into the council meeting, displayed a poor form cf municipal ethics. Timmins, Ont., March 30, 1937 To the Editor of The Advance, Timmins. _This has also been recontly referred to by Ccouncillor Dr. Harper. May I express myself as beinz salisâ€" RADIO ANNOUNCER (absently): ‘"And now, on behalf of Jones‘ Littl: Liver Pills, I bid you goodâ€" night."‘-â€"Snut!h's Weekly, Sydney, Australia. rush is taking place at Mcose !Lcdge. extending west from Dinorwir \Lake, scuth of Dincwic, Wabigoon and Cryden stations. The staking started wia the finding of an interesting showâ€" ing Ey Ja‘ctk Adair, earlier in the winter, immeCiatoly south of Dinorwic. Since then, ue rush has spread | and has now reached the south snore of Wabigctn Lake, about five miles south cf Dryden. Stakingzg has spreamu out alonz a narrow belt for a distance of 10 miles, northwest and southwest ailong the Adair strike." "Aercplanes, snowmchiles and dog teams are being utilized in rushing men and supplies inteo the second major staking rush which has developed in the Kenora mining division this winter. Acocraing ‘to Charles A. Griffiths, proâ€" imiinent prospector who is clesely conâ€" nected with the Keystone Porcupine Ccompany, more than 250 claims nave already been staked, while the rush is spreading out in large proportions and will embrace as many again C more before height of the activity has passed. Kenora Mining Division Witnesses Another Rush In the language of the sailor, there might be a few lubbers.amongst the craay of the "Good Ship Tisdale," but every manâ€"jack is a signed member of the crew and in exercising their priviâ€" lege they elected as their "Captain" Reeve Kerr, handed him the ship‘s compass so to speak. This they did with the gozsd faith that he would sinâ€" cerely try to navigate the ship on its current twelve months‘ jeurney over the most direct course even if storms have, at times, o be faced headâ€"on through the most tempestuous seas in Tisdale riunicipal exsursicn. / Is this being done? the meeting for discussion Surely he must unders.and and reaâ€" lize that at least, all important business is worthy of his considered presence at the meetings. If his feelings are negaâ€" tive to this spirit, may I ask, in the name of consiitutional justice, why Reeve Kerr did not inform the elecâ€" tcrate of Tisdale during his election campaign accordingly, thneresy permitâ€" ting the sincerily within the electors to elect a reeve who preferred to deal with even the most crucial business, at a crucial period, rather than adorn, by his presen?e, .a distant hockey game? Aocording to The Sudsury Star there is another rush in the Kenora mining divisicn. ‘Staking activity is centred around Moocse Lodge. ‘The Star says:â€" Thank you! icr $2,000: 1,0CCO0 Cantral Patriztia, 100 Ventures, 1C0 Sydjury Basin, 93C0 moâ€" Vittie Graham, 108 Towagsmasc, 35C) El Bonanza, 1C,CC) Gecdfish, 50C2) Area, 1,C03 Central Manitsba, 1,000 Mandy, 1,C00 Mconeta, 500 Stadacona, 1,0C0 Mcâ€" Ltcd River, 1,00 Vikers, 1,000 Malrcizic, 5,CC0 Pcercupine Crown, 1,0€00 Rulsec. At toâ€"day‘s market prices, thete stocks are worth mcore than $11,C00. "How does ‘it happen that it tcok you all this time to lay a charge?" askâ€" ed Magistrate Atkinson. ~â€""HMe came to me," explained Qrown Attornsy S. A. Caldbick, ‘"and a civil actic= was kogun. Chs is on relief, we find, but at no tim> disputed the claim." Ne Relationship No relationsaip existed zetween the man and w:man, it was Cearly indicatâ€" ed.â€" "I tefriended this ard ner russand for a year when they wore hard tp." Brown toid the court. The Horiccks, man, wife and children, had ricved in with Brown. Eefore leaving Timmins ir May, 1934, Browan told Mrs. Horlecks that if ne ai any time wanted anything frim the 20x, he wou‘d write, she could get the sooci and send them to him. "This woman, he said, pointing to Mrs, Horlocks, "Aad the key." Woman Given Term in Case Involving $11,000 The theft cfi what turns cut now to e more than $11,000 worth of gold mining stocks was revealed in police court on Tuesday in one of the most unusual cases ever heard here. J. Brown Told Court that he Had Trusted Mrs. Laura Brown Horlocks with Key to Deposit Box and She Had Taken and Sold Stock Valued at $11,000. "A Mean Form of Theft," says Magistrate. He returned to Timmins in OctCser, 1835, to find moest of his securities gone. "She told me that if I hadn‘ come back so scoen she would have taken thae rest and scrammed," said Brown. The Stolen Stocks Here is the list of sto:cks Mrs., Horâ€" locks sold within that year and a There still is scmething o a mys.ieriâ€" cus atmosphere about the case, even though Mrs. Herlocks is on her way to serve a term "not exceeding two years less one day" at the Mercer reformaâ€" tory. The chain~ cf â€" ciroumstances trcught out during the court sessiian seemed ridiculous at first and yei the stories told by both sides agreed in all kut minor details. Prown claimed he had put the stock in the safety deposit ir his own name, it was later proven by Wilâ€" fred Clark, ‘bank thai the contract for the box had been a "tenâ€" ants in cocmmeor" agreement tnrough which either Mrs. Horlocks (who had sizgned the contract as "Laura Brown") or James Brcwn coud have access to the contents at any time. Mrs. Laura Brown Horlocks, middieâ€" aged, mildâ€"mannered Timmins woman, mother <of three children, admitied takâ€" ing the stocks from James Brown‘s safety deposit box at the Imperial Bank branch office here and selling them nearly two years ago for wha:s she thinks was about $2,000. Almost Penniless Now The net result is that James Brown, who had a neat little nest egg of minâ€" inz stocks tucked away in a safety deâ€" posit bex, is now a‘most penniless and without even a j¢hb.

I khate to send you away but the pu:lic must b: protected." "I didn‘t think anyone would do a thing like thatâ€"steal." Would Have Been Well Off "He would have been worth a lot of money if she‘d let him alone," Myr. Caldbick pointed out. "Now he‘s got roihing,. Not even a job. I think myâ€" self it‘s a pretty mean sort of offence." who‘s helped both yeu and your husâ€" band! You‘ve absolutely ‘clearod this man cut, the most hcartless thing you cculd have done." Brown, recalled. was asked by the magistrate: "Can you give me any reaâ€" son why you weuld leave her with thouâ€" sands of dollars worth of stock?" testiminy only once to sayv. somewhat plaintively: "Jimmy, you gave me both sets of keys." The bank accountant understood when ‘Mrs. Horlocks and Brown had been in the bank together that they were man and wife. The "tenants in common" arrangement had apparently been satisfactory to both, he said. "The Stock Is Yours" "The,. stock is yours. Do what you like with it," were the words attributed to Brown by Mrs. Horlocks just before he left in 1934. "I‘m gcing to find ypu guilty," the magistrats> said, turning to Mrs. Horâ€" locks. "I can‘t belisve your story. It is clear that you have cheated this man out of his whole life‘s savings. A man Under questioning y Mr. Caldbick, Mrs. Horlccks said she had been marâ€" ried in Septem‘ber, 1925, and had not known Brown at the time. She still lives with her husbhand. "We‘ve known Mr. Brown for a large number of years." The eccurt repsated the questicn. "I don‘t know," was her secona anâ€" swer. "I didn‘t withdraw it all. Half of it was still there." "I find it hard to understand why you would withdraw all this man‘s stock like that," the magistrate continued. ~"Is there any reason why he would give you his whole life‘s savings?" askâ€" ecd the magistrate.
