They are difficult to appreciate, but it may be stated that the yardage of the products of Lancashire looms for the year was sufficient to provide a belt of cloth approximately 40 inches in width which would extend 80 times round the world.

Smart, who conducted the service, echoed the thouzhts of the community when he contrasted the senflomolltfefonvwed by the Milâ€" roys," which earned for them the title COounty," with their violent end. _ The cut and battered bodies of John and Annie Milroy were buried today in a double grave at Mount View Cemeâ€" tery, while neighbors and friends from l the rich farmland district of Littlie‘s Corners paid sorrowing tribute. Chief mourner was Dr. Thomas Milroy, 79â€" yearâ€"old ilind brother of the murdered pair, who arrived in Galt this morning White was held in the local jail for the night and removed this morning. There was no indication of mob vioâ€" lence when he was taken from his cell. When White was arrested, it was reâ€" ported tonizht; he was forced to strip while police examined his clothing for bloodstains. The police kept his shirt. Although police are continuing their investigations, there is© some doubt about the Indian accomplice. The poâ€" lice am inclined to believe that the murder was committed by one man. Miss Milroy later related the incident to Mirs. William Oliver, a neighbor, and said kher brother knew that the visitor was not Devine. Albert Hill, a farmhand who had been assisting the Milroys in the harvest, was in the Milroy barn when White arâ€" rived on Aug. 12 in search of a job. _ After the arrest a conference was held at Queen s**Pm'k Toronto, Majorâ€" al Victar Wimams Provincial iPolice Commissioner, and Inspector Alâ€" bert Ward of the C.LB. discussed the reward posted yesterday. No ment was made after the conference. â€" Previous Visit Claimed It was claimed here tonight that the arrested man had visited the Milroy farm on the Saturday previous to the double murder, and that he gave his name as "Devine." After a brief conâ€" versation with Milroy he was told to leave the farm. The aged Milroy went into his home after talking to White, it was claimed, and his sister asked him why he had not invited the visitor to stay for dinâ€" ner. "I don‘t like the looks of him," Milroy told his sister. In recent months White has been helping his father in the rag and metal business here, but only yesterday the accused man sought employment in the Hespeler Woollen Mill. The White family came to this disâ€" trict in 1922â€"23 from the Upper Ottawa Valley. White has two brothers and one sister, The arrested man last worked on the Milroy farm in 1930, and since then has been engaged by other farms in the district. He was picked up by Inspecâ€" tor Lougheed, assisted by other ofâ€" ficers, at his home in Hespeler. He was questioned until 1 o‘clock in the morning, and then taken to Galt for further examination. The murder of the azed pair on Satâ€" urday stirred the Province, and prompâ€" ted a widespread manhunt. The brother and sister were killed by blows af an axe, found near the bodies. :\ White is held on a charge of vagsâ€" rancy, but it was learned from Toronto that Attorneyâ€"General Gordon Conant would soon lay a charge of double murder. Credit for the arrest goes to Inâ€" spector W. C. Lougheed of the Provinâ€" clal Police,: and it is doubtful whether the Province of Ontario will have to pay the $5,000 reward posted yesterday for the arrest of the slayer. ..
