THE OSHAWA DALY TIMES, TUESDAY, jery 16, 1929 News, ithe essen advertising and Bowmanville Office of The Times. Telephones--Office, 587; - REPRESENTATIVE RICHARD COWAN COMMITTED HIGHER COURT ON ® ASSAULT CHARGE Evidence Taken at Prelim- inary Hearing Held Yes- terday Bowmanville, July 16.--The as- sault charge against Wilfred Smale came up before Magistrate Ward in local police court yesterday after- 'noon. After a preliminary hearing, Smale was sent on for trial at the General Sessions of the peace in Cobourg, the second week of Du- cember, or may he tried, if desired, . 'at a prior date, before the County © Court Judge. At the preliminary hearing, the story of the whole affair was "brought out. Todr witnesses were called, Dr, Storey, Edward Wil. liamson, John Clarke and James Hogarth. Dr. Storey (on being questioned by Crown Attorney Kerr of Cou- bourg) stated that Williamson came to him on the sixth day of June and on examination he found his lower jaw was broken in two 'places, and that he had bruises about the face, cuts in the lower lip and probably the breaking in of the air cells about the nose, There were also bruises on the left side. He told Dr. Storey that it had happened about an hour before and that he had come right in to Dr. Storey. "I advised him to go to the hospital but he desired to go home," said Dr. Storey. 'I vis- ited him six or seven times there. At present he has a displacement of the jaw to one side and callouses 'about the jaw. His bones have al- most recovered. Dr. Bonnyecastle set his jaw, a splint being placed to hold it. He has not fully physi- cally recovered. His teeth will need setting. There has been no perma- nent injury except the jaw dis- placement. This will hardly afrect his appearance. He had previous- ly a section of his jaw broken off with five teeth on it, but it was successfully replaced, There .x nothing of a serious nature that will affect him for the rest of his life." Complainant's Story Edward Williamson, the com- plainant, testified as follows: --"0On the sixth of June, between 2 and 3 o'clock, I had been digging up the mangel ground when the de- fendant's ducks came along, and I drove them out into the lane when he came up and yelled at me to Jeave them alone. Words passed between the two of us. Smale stat- ed that he wasn't afraid of me and I stated that I wasn't afraid if him. He said that he had been waiting a long time to get me. He drew up and knocked me down with his fist, striking me on the side of the face below the temple. I got up and threw a stone I had picked up at him, when he said 'Damn you, I'l kill you' 1 don't remember anything else after that, whether he hit me again at thar, 1 was not aware whether I hit my jaw when I fell the first time or not. I don't remember falling the second time. When I got up the second time, I didn't notice any- thing. I didn't see him again. I got up and went over to a wagon when a neighbour came along and asked me what happened. 1 put my hand up to my face and found first one tooth missing and then found three teeth missing. My wife took me to the house and then to Dr. Sterey. I didn't have any _other injuries before that time, I 'will be 67 years old in October. Smale, 1 would judge, would be about 21." On being cross examined by W, R. Strike, he stated that he didn't remember anything after falling the first time until getting up the second. He couldn't tell how many times Smale hit him. In failing the first time he had picked up a stone and had thrown it at Smale. Eye-Witnesses Testify Mr. John Clarke was the next wit- 'ness. On being questioned he stat- ed, "The first I saw was Mr. Wil- liamson driving Smale's ducks out of his field when young Smale came to meet him. They sald some- thing to each other, I don't know 'what it was. When they were walk- ing down the lane beside each oth- er, Smale knocked him down. 12 saw the boy hit him again when he wag standing in the road. He haul- ed off and hit him and knocked him in the ditch. The blow seemed to "strike him on the jaw. William. son got up and - staggered to the fence. He didn't do anything but walked up the lane to a wagun. 1 yelled at Smale. I was 12 or 15 rods away. He struck/him twice." James Hogarth was the next to 'be questioned. He stated: "I was in Mr. Clarke's barnyard at the time of: the affair, helping Mr. Clarke draw manure when Mr. Clarke drew my attention to it. J saw Williamson drive the ducks along when I heard Mr. Clarke say, "Hear comes Smale." TI turned around and saw Smale strike Wil- liamson and Williamson fell. He Thousands fen Eat of A Delightful Breakfast Food got up on his fost, when Sm struck him n. son fall agai the ald of the fence." Chief of Police S. Venton was |, called, but he could throw. no light on the affalr. The rest of the evi- dence will be heard when the ca comes up for trial. x DEVOTION PERIOD OPENED ON SUNDAY Se. Impressive Services Held at St. Joseph's Church Bowmanville, July 16.--The for: ty hours' devotion opened at St, Jo- seph's church on Sunday with the seating capacity of the church tax- ed to the limit. The service opeu- ed with High Mass and forty hours orations and Litany of the Saints. The procession was led by an altar boy bearing the cross anu followed by six little girls dressea in white with garlands of flowers on their heads and carrying base kets of beautiful blooms. These were followed by two surpliced boys with candles. The visiting priest was in the rear holding high the Blessed Sacrament. The chu of the church was heard to the best advantage and were under the cup able leadership of Mr. Richard Cur- ry of Oshawa. The special sermon was preach- ed by Rev. Father Carrol of St, Augustines Seminary, Scarboro. He took for his text a verse of the gospel, 'Jesus of Nazareth is pass- ing by." He told in a very graphic manner of Christ's last journey from Jericho to Jerusalem and of the blind beggar, Bartenmeus, who sat at the side of the road and when he heard the rumble of the approaching crowd that followed our Lord, asked what was the meaning of this vast gathering. One of the crowd answering him said, "Jesus of Nazareth is pass- ing by." Father Carrol went un to say that this forty hours' devu- tion, the inception of which is bur- ied deep in the annals of Catholie history, was in remembrance of the forty hours that Christ was in the sepulchre. 'And today we are gathered here to remember this time of our Lord's incarceration and to remember that now He is al- ways with us and not just passing by. After the sermon, Mrs. Malone from Port Credit sang the Ave Ma- ria. At Benediction on Sunday evening, Father Carrol préachea another brilliant sermon to a large congregation, The devotions con- tinued yesterday and today.
