It is expected that the largest number over to attend this func- tion will be present owing to a new wiy of getting in touch with those who formerly belonged to the rogi- ment, At last year's banquet each member was asked to get In touch with any other member they knew and who was not present and send their names to the secretary of the organization, This has been done and more soldiers than ever before have been in touch with the secre- tary and have stated their Inten- tions of being present, Any further information requir od may be obtained from the pro- sident, Dr. GG, C. Bonnycastle, or from the secretary J, C, SBamis, Correction It was erroneously reported in yostorday's issue of The Times that Mrs, Plorence Turner of Clarke Township, who was charged In police court with reckless driving, wan fined by Magistrate Floyd, ot Cobourg, the sum of ten dollars and costs, This was incorrect, Mrs, Turner was not fined but was only required to pay the costs of the court, MORRISON MURDER TRIAL EVIDENCE (Continued from Pugé J) had u quarrel with his wife over an other mun, He scoffed at the insan- ity ples, he said that it was impos. sible to get medical men to agree on Insanity, as many of them say that a mun who is not 100 per cent, normal mentally is insane "Legally," hq sald, "a wan is sane if he knows that his act will cause injury or death and undoubtedly Morrison knew all this." Judge's Address In opening his address to the jury, Justice Raney complimented MM, Hall on his able defence of the pris oner, saying tat nothing had been left uncovered le said, however, to eriticize in ficers had taken the statement from Marrison. Touching on the insanity uspect of the detence, Justice Rane sid ¢ "If he. knew it wa i guilty, Insanity in a broatl sense is not enough for the law It mist bh un specific thing established to the satisfaction of the jury." Reading from the testimony of Dr. Steveir- pon that Morrison had realized that he had done something wrong, he said. If that is true, then the plea {insanity fatls." "If I were 'one of you, e added, "I would hesitate to find guilty of murder There 18 too much doubt in some of the lines of the evidence Yet it would seem to be impossible to bring in a verdict of not guilty en any count." The charge to the jury was ended just at noon, and the jurors retired to cousider thelr verdiet, which expected later in the afternoon Yesterday's Proceedings The morning session of the Sus preme Court in Whitby on Tuesday practically completed the presenta. tion of evidenee by the Crown. In the afternoon uw statement which Oshawa Police officers reecived from William Morrison, when he was in hospital, was presented to the jury Althought the statement wus of a sensational nature, describing as it did the happenings of the morning on which Mrs, Morrison came to her death, it was not new evidence, it having heen presented at the core oner's inquest in Oshawa some months ago, The main features of the admission of this statement was the position taken by A, C. Hall, counsel for Morrison, who took the stand that it should not be admitted as evidence as there were a number of police wificers present when it was taken which would tend to intimi- date Morrison in his weakened state Mr. Hall in the development of the defense, brought forward a large number of witnesses who testified to the mental condition of the accused it various times before the alleged crime. and who also testified to his character and life in his home, The detense also introduced Dr, Steven. won and Dr. Herriman, both heads ol Mental Hospitals: in the province, who gave evidence with regard. to Morrison's mental condition, Police Evidence After the noon recess, the Sus preme Court resumed its sessions yesterday with a further considera. tion of evidence of Sergeant McGee and Detective Sergeant Flintofl. For the first part of the hearing of this evidence the jury was still excluded from the court room, A. C. Hall, counsel for the defence made the discovery that the statement which Morrison is alleged to have made to the police officers at the Oshawa Hosta) was dated April 31st, while both Sergeant McGee and Detective wrong h \ Morrison « Cergeant Flintoff stated in the stand that the statementhad been taken on SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT MADAME REHSIF | OF THE FOREMODE FOUNDATIO* ) (4 , GARMENTS WILL BE HERE ( THURSDAY & FRIDAY | FOR SPECIAL FITTINGS You are cordially invited to see this new line of Corsets on display | in our store Thursday and Friday | W. A. DEWLAND LTD. May 1st. It was finally decided that there had been an error in the filling in of the date and not a mistake by the officers in the date it was tak: en. Mr, Hall raised the question of whether the statement was made in the form of -u cross examination, Both officers said, however, that Morrison had been given statutory warning and that he had told the story voluntarily to them of the hap- penings of the 29th of April and that only several questions had been usk ed by one of the officers, Mr, Hall made objection to the reception of the statement on the grounds that there were four police officers and Dr, Rundle, Coroner, of the city pres went when it was taken, His Lord. ship ruled however that it should be admitted, Statement Read The jury was recalled and Crown Counsel C. A, Kingstone read the statement to the jury, In it Morri- son is alleged to have said that on the morning of April 29th, he arose and sent his two boys to school, Shortly after his wife came down stairs and they had a quarrel ending by him chasing her about the house and finally up stairs, where he struck hier with a hatchet, Becoming fright. ened at the sight of blood he struck her again and covered her up on the bed. where she fell. He then ac- cording to the statement went to the cellar and threw the hatchet away, and left the house, "He also is ul- leged to have said that he was so nervous he took a quantity of Lysol and slashed his wrists with the blade of' a safety razor With the reading of the statement to the jury the Crown closed its case, Joth Sergeant McGee and Detective Sergeant Flintoff testified to the jury that the statement had been made voluntarily and that they had been present when it was made Defence Evidence I'he first witness for the defence wus the Morrison family physician, who stated that William Morrison had not been in good health since November of last year. 'The physi cian sid the accused was in physical good health but he was emotionally upset and seemed much worried, Dr, Miller, doctor for the General Mo tors plant also said that Morrison had come 1a hi for examination carly in the year and had complained of not being able to concentrate on his worl He was advised to take t rest for several months and then come back I'he doctor said that Morrison seemed to be worried about hnancial matters Fellow. Workers Testify A number of workers in the ma- chine shop of the G.M.C, plant were called und each testified to the fine character of the accused, 'They said that he was not the same man in many ways after last December, not being able to concentrate on his work und had fits of erying for no apparent reason, However, the wit. nesses said that he had always spok- en well of his wife, Anne, and that his relations with her were of the best DAW, Mcliicol, an insurance deals er in city told of visiting the Mor. rison home the night before the crime, He stated that a person could not wish for any better rélations than those which éxisted hetween husband and wife Morrison, however, did not seem able to keep on one train of thought and began to talk of his worrie Brother and Mother Frank Morrison, brother of the a | cused. gave character evidence of the very highest nature on his brother's behalf, He was always straight mor. ally and "had never been in trouble Neither was he cruel by nature, Mrs Robert Morrison, the mother of the accused, presented a pathetic figure on the stand She told the court that her son had written to her ask ing if there were any jobs near his home away from the city, and ex plaining that he had had a nervous breakdown Claims Morrison Insane Evidence of a highly technical na ture was presented by Doctor G, H Stevenson, Superintendent of the Ontario . Hospital, Whitby, Doctor Stevenson said that he had examined Morison on four occasions, On these four occasions Morrison could not he termed insane, but the Doctor judged him to be suffering from a nervous disorder, Doctor Stevenson express ed the opinign that from the evid: ence he had heard in the court Mer: rison was insane when he is alleged to have committeed the crime, Mr. Hall udvanced the question as to whether the Doctor would have recommended Morrison for treats ment, if he had been examined be. fore the crime took place, Doctor Stevenson agreed that he would, He also said that there was a form of mental disease, which caused those who suffered from it to attack those whom they loved the most, The fact that Morrison had not been in un normal state of mental health for three months had something to do with the crime affirmed Doctor Steys enson, In Sub:Normal State Dr, W, C, Herriman, superintend- ent of the Ontario Hospital at Co- bourg, was also called to give evid- ence on the mental health of the nce custd and had found him to be in a subsnormal condition, suffering from mental depression, His nervous syss tem was in a state of irritation, Dr, Herriman told the court that in his opinion ax an expert in mental dis- cuses, Morrison was a sufferer from New Martin THURS, - FRIDAY The "Hide-Out" Thrilling College Comedy-Drama SHE'S A HE Comedy FOX NEWS VOICE OF HOLLYWOOD Today "WHAT A MAN" Neurasthenia, a form of brain and nerve exhanstion, From what he had | vorted materials, yarns, heard at the hearing Dr. Herriman | which rates are said he believed the accused w fighting against his mind and that finally his resist. | duction fn factory price is predict ance gave out and he committed the [ed on some lines act for which he was on trig), 'I'he | creased production, Factory prices Doctor said he believed also that {are what the milly are pald fos Morrison did not realize the results | thelr goods; the milly do not dis of his act until he had fully recovers | tribute direct to the public, Prices The Crown Counsel took consider able time trying to shake the testi- | koods made from nmungo and shod mony given by Dr, Herriman and get | dy, but these will he replaced by a clear conception of the evidence | sound Canadian presented by the Mental Expert, afternoon, to be reopened on | labor, enterprise, wool Wednesday morning with the ad dress to the jury hy A, ( fense counsel, and Mr. Kingstone, crown counsel, if an amendment to the Custon introduced in the House of Com mons yesterday by Premier Penne becomes law, The government pro posed the insertion of a new sc tion in the act which will emp the governor-in-council to prohibit | : (Continued from Vage 3) improvement, rapidly its employment of Cuna dian Iabor, A new era len hefore Canadian woollen textile In dustry, an era pregnant with op portunity and responsibility which goes with opportunity labor and industry are entitled to this opportunity and are fully cap don of discharging the responsi of delivery, price { The area involved in the fire wa ut Af moprised the "Assurance hax been given that, | workshops tore present Canadian nes, facsf een of the 'Pitanine prices will not he altered, ox |.td cept uch as are now made of im- ete, on increased, and then only until Canadian produc. the promptings of | thon can take care of these, Re- owing to In of imported materials will be in- creased, especially on low-grade materiulg of in- trinsle value and wearing quality, court was adjourned late in| resulting in benefits to Canadian growers and consumer, the latter gettthg Hall, de- | better value for his money."
