ary 19 he further stated that he had called the township clerk lloyd johnston to ap pear in the county court on monday for an examination but he had not appeared nor had he given any reason why he did not do so pie therefore asked that mr johnston who was in the court be called as the first witness although mr moore denied that he was there to represent mr johnston he objected to this on the grounds that mr johnston was not named on the notice of motion mr rower argued that mr johnston could be called as the official representative of the township which had been named mr greer at this time announced that he would also object to reeve todd being cal led since he had not been nam ed in the notice of motion dr roberts reasoned that the township of pickering a corporate body had been nam ed but could not obviously ap pear if the clerk had author ity to appoint mr moore to appear on behalf cf the town ship without the consent of the elected council he should be allowed to give evidence col stephenson claimed that as intervenor representing neither side in the issue he was able to call mr johnston judge pritchard ruled howev er that mr johnston could not be called at this time mr brower then asked that mr johnston be excluded from the court while col stephenson gave his evidence since he said this might give mr johnston an opportunity to improvise his evidence his

made a thorough study of the ontario municip al act following the election and it was also apparent from his evidence that he had heard about the evidence act because even the astute cross- examination by messrs greer and xewman failed to shake him and in fact he appeared to enjoy the verbal tugofwar col stephenson said that on thursday preceding the elec tion he had happened into the office of the pickering news where the ballots for the wat er line question were being orepared he said that he not ed they were not beins word ed in the manner prescribed by the municipal act and he
