Boles, of Simcoe, commissioned to robe the management of Middlesex Jounty jail, adjourned the inquiry for a week or ten days late this af- ternoon after having heard an in- teresting story from Head Turnkey James Spyers. Governor Byron Dayson, eof the jail, had testified during the morn- ing session that under rule 38 of the provineial jail regulations, relating to cities of more than 50,000 population, he had delegated certain responsibili- ties to the head turnkey. The regula- tion calls for daily inspection trips by the jailer, who is required to see cach prisoner. Also he 1s required to go through the jail one night each week at some irregular time. The governor said this duty was taken by his staff, but Spyers, pressed by . T. Robb, the Government's rep- resentative, and also by Judge Boles, stated that he had not been instruct- ed to make such visits and that he had mever given any assurance that they had been made, He swore that when time permitted he interested himself in the management of the jail to the extent of making some such investigations, but he swore that time does not often afford. He said that the staff was shorthanded when Harlton, - Martron and three others escaped, the reason being that Turnkey Meriam was on his holi- "I was often, alone in charge: of the jail from eight 'in the morning till the governor came in at about 11 o'clock," he said, "Lhe goveinor was there about an hour a day, Usually he came in at about 11 o'clock and stayed for about an hour. On visit- ing days he sometimes came in for a time in the afterfloon. Some days he was there four or five hours and some days he was not there at all, but for an average he was there about an hour a day, Except on visiting days I was often alone in the jail in the afternoon. At noon I was usually busy letting in prison- ers ftom the city police court or ex- ercising prisoners in the jail yard, Governor Dawson's testimony was featured by a close examination as to the type of men imprisoned in ward where the steel cage and four other cells were located, Harlton had the cageand Martron and five others were in the cells on the day of the escape." When the cage was installed after the escape of the Murrells in 1922 it had a block lock and a padlock. The key jammed in the block lock and it was taken off and never replaced, Subsequently a prisoner told the head turnkey that the padlock could be picked, and the lock was changed for another of the same type that had been used on a tunnel leading from the cells to the courtroom. Governor Dawson told the judge that he believed that this change of locks would be sufficient ing agit for a few new ones. He also swore that the keys of the cage and other important cells were kept on a ring in a wooden locker in the jail kitchen, He had several times asked for a safe for the keys, and one is now to be procured, Warned to Watch Martron Originally, the governor testified, it had been intended to keep Harlton in the cage and to allow no other prisoners in that ward, but the jail pepulation increased, other parts of the building became overcrowded, and the isolation order was rescinded. He said that when Martron was brought in the city police who de- livered him said that "here is a tough bird . He's a bad actor. You will have to take care of him."
