Monsigneru Dupuis, Holy Cross Parish Priest, accompanied him to the scaffold. The gallows had been erected within a few feet of the death cell, and Ivanchuk, who refused mor- phine, walked quietly, and at his own request with uniformed of- ticers of the mounted and provin- cial' police as his guards. In the procession also was Deputy Sheriff J. B. Moore, of Cochrane, and Sergeant Delves, of the provincial formal yerdict of th force, and constable Delaney, of hte B.C.M.P, were the escort.

PAUL'S CHURCH Event Held on Wednesday Evening Was a Decided Success Pickering, July 19.--The annual garden party of St. Paul's Church, held in the Memorial Park on Wed- nesday evening was a success in ev- ery way. The evening was an ideal one for an outside gathering, and the community attended well. The ladies upheld their usual high stand- ard in the supper which they served under the trees after which baseball games between girl's and boy's teams entertained the gathering until time for the program. Centennial girls played the Pickering girls, and after a rather un-exciting game in which many errors were chalked up for both teams, the final score was 11-11, The Audley and Pickering boys presented a much faster game than the girls. the resulting score being 11-7, in fa- vour of the home team. The concert of the evening was given by the Ionic quartette of Whitby, which need no introduction to the music loving peo- ple of the Community. Messrs Lynde, Cuthbert, Cuthbert and Moore, give a high class concert, which caters to the preferences of every type of au- dience. At their performance Wed- nesday evening they were accorded the best of attention and hearty ap- plause. = At intermission, an auto- graph quilt, holding seven hundred names, which had been made by the Ladies' Aid, was auctioned and was bought by Miss Myrtle Wilson of Oshawa for twenty dollars. THRILLING WESTERN NOW SHOWING AT THE NEW MARTIN The old West of hard-riding and quick-shooting cowboys, sagebrush, and endless rolling hills, returned for a few hours at the New Martin Theatre last night when Universal's recent picture, "The Two Outlaws," starring Rex, the King of Wild Horses, was shown to an enthusiastic audience. Rex is a marvelous animal and he really astounds one with his almost human intelligence. There has never been another animal in motion pic- tures that may be compared with him in acting ability and in thrilling exploints. . Jack Perrin, in a dual role, proves that He is rapidly becoming one of the leading Western heroes. He is a fine actor and possesses the abil- ity to ride and shoot well that *is the requisite of every cowboy in leading roles. Kathleen Collins, as the inine lead, also does some clever acting and, what's more, looks very beautiful on the screen. Others in the cast are J. P. McGowan, Cuy- ler Supplee and John Hall.

He stated that just before the time of the ac- cident he was going east on the King- ston highway about two miles west of Whitby when the deceased passed him. He was going about 35 miles an hour, The deceased in passing the car in front of him cut in to avoid a car going west. "I thought he touched both cars," stated Eng- lish. The motor cycle zigzagged along the road and then rolled over. hitting the third car in the line. I stopped my car and got out. The motor cycle was turned up on its side and was still going. I went between the motor cycle and Allen's car, and saw the deceased lying on the north side . of the road. I made investigations and found that his left leg was badly crushed. I made a tourniquet which stopped the flow of the blood. I thought he was almost dead when he asked for a drink and said that the tourniquet was too tight. I got his name from pa- pers in his pocket and also took the names of several witnesses. He asked for tea which we got him. He then said, It was my own fault, I cut in on him. "I would judge," said Sergeant English, "that the deceased had been traveling about 40 to 45 miles per hour." Edwin Allen of 97 Birchcliff Ave, Toronto was the next witness. Allen stated that he had been travelling in a westerly direction about two miles west of Whitby when he noticed the car in front of him duck towards the side. He then saw a motor cycle come between two cars, swerve about and then hit his car dead on. Mr father, said Allen got out and I followed him. The motor cycle was on its side and still going. We were going about 32 miles per hour when I saw him and I put on my brakes, skidding about eight feet before our car hit him. I had no chance to go around him. I helped to lift the mo- tor cycle, which was considerably damaged up. The machine had swerved from side to side when it began to roll over, catapulting Hjort- bol from it. I couldn't say how he landed. There was a blood mark on che pavement at the rear of our car, some on the front light post, on the bumper and on the left side. The bumper was broken off. The skirt, radiator, and mud guards were bent. The front axle and springs were also damaged.. I do not believe that my car went over him. He lost control of * his machine.' "The only words I heard him say," said Allen, "were, 'that's rather tight." Robert Hisson of 2879 Dundas St. W., Toronto, was the next witness. Hisson stated, "I was travelling East on the highway about two miles west of Whitby when a man on a motor cycle came from behind me, He pass- me, swerved in and then out again and then went headlong into a car going west. The machine appeared to be out of control. I saw him col- lide with the car, and noticed the se- vere injuries received by Hortbol. After the accident I noticed that the front bumper of the car was broken | of. The splash pan was dented as if it. The machine was damaged and ran around I found two other men there. I helped lift the deceased out from under the car. A man asked for a rope and I gave him one, al- fhough I don't know what he did with it. The machine wasdamaged and had been pushed by the car. Thomas Allen, father of Edwin next appeared. He said that, he had been in the car behind the driver (his son) near the spot of the acci- dent just before it happened and was not paying much attention to any- thing. He looked up and saw the motor cycle turning across the road about ten feet in front of the car, The cycle was out of control, the driver having both hands off the handle bars, catapulting through the air. When the crash occurred he jumped out of the car. He expected to find the deceased in front of the Continued on next galley car, but instead he was ncar the rear wheel. I gave a hand and helped lift him out to the side of the road. Both legs were free, one being 'badly mashed. "I believe," stated Allen, "that the leg was crushed between the car and the machine." There was blood on the skirt, on the bump- cr and on the road. Notice ' Risk Bernard Freedman stated that he had been riding in a car towards Whitby at the time of the accident when he saw the cycle come up from behind. He turned and watched it. The machine passed his car and he made a remark to the other occu- pants as to the risk taken. A car coming from the opposite direction turned out to aveid the motor cycle. The next thing he saw was thc mo- tor cycle go up in the air, He vague: ly saw the driver go in the air and hit a car. Our car stopped and I rushed out, said Freedman. The de- ceased had been.taken out from un- der the car. 'The bags and valises that were in the side car were spilt over the road. Traffic Officer Sydney Hilliard, traffic officer in that district stated that he had been called to the scene of the accident at about 3.45 o'clock. He found the deceased on the side of the road with the left leg pretty well amputated. On examination he found several gouges on the road caused by the motor cycle. The distance between the first and last gouges was about 25 feet. The furthest one being about six feet out from the north side of the road. The front bumper of the 'car was broken off. I noticed blood on the bumper about two-thirds of the way over where I thought the leg had been crushed. I heard the de- ceased make the statment that the accident was all his fault, After hearing what all the witn- nesses had to say, Coroner Hoig stated to the jury that they should not have a hard time reaching a ver dict as the evidence pointed all one way, The jury took one hour and six iinutes to reach their verdict which was read by the Foreman, James Thorburn. The verdict was-- We find that Robert Hjortbol, came to his death in the Oshawa General hospital on July the eighth, due to inflamation of the bowels, caused by an accident on the Kingston Highway approximately two miles west of the town of Whitby on July 8, and we do not attach any blame to any per- son.
