THE OSHAWA DAILY TIMES, THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 13, 1930 PAGE THREE Undertakers naware Wilfred Seago Was Returned Soldier Canada Steamship Line Boat To Make Last Call of Season At Harbour This Afternoon First Sign of Closing of Navi- gation For Local Port Is Seen--"City of Kingston" to Call HARBOR HAS BEEN BUSY SINCE OPENING Prospects for Next Year Are Bright--Ready Access to Water Transportation May Add to City's Industrial Importance The first sign in Oshawa of the closing of navigation of the Great Lakes was seen yesterday when the Oshawa Chamber of Commerce re- ceived from the Canada Steamship Lines notification that the last call of their steamship the "City of King ston", at the Oshawa harbour this year, will be made today. The com- pany have notified Oshawa shippers of this event noting that shipments for both the east and west will be last called for today. Any cargoes which arrive for shipment west- bound will be taken care of by the Larke Transports Limited, agents oe thes steamship company in this city, The "City of Kingston" has called several times at the Oshawa harbour since it opened for traffic on August 7 and this same steamship had the honor of being the first ship to en- ter the Oshawa Harbour on that date, It will be remembered tieat over three thousand people were present on that memorable occasion to greet the first ship to enter the harbour and thus commence again after a stretch of many years' inactivity tha bringing of waterborne freight to the city. "City of Kingston" was the first steamship to dock in the Oshawa Harbour for seventeen years and was the winner of a race between it and the 8. 8. Ashbay of the Tree Naviga- tion Company for the honor of open- ing the harbour. The winner was greeted at the dock by Mayor Mit- chell who presented Captain John Dube, commander of the ship with a silk hat as a token of remembrance for being the first skipper to bring a ship in the new Oshawa Harbour, Speaking to huge crowd on that occasion, Mayor Mitchell expressed the hope that "in the future the ar- rival of steamers at Oshawa and the shipment of commodities of local manufacture by water will be a com- mon occurrence." That hope has been fully realized. With the co-operation of Oshawa merchants and manufac turers the Oshawa harbour has be come a regular. port of gall for steamers plying the great lakes. Since that time, little more than three months ago, the docks have been covered with shippping and coal storage bins. Practically all the coal, being used for commercial pur- poses in Oshawa this winter has been brought to the city by the wa- ter route in the past few months. In 1913 the last ship made Oshawa a port of call bringing a load of coal. Since that year, until this, the har- bour has been in disuse until finally it became necessary to apply for Government aid to put the harbour ohce more in shape to receive ship- ments by water. Hardly had the dredging been completed when the Tree Navigation Company announced a service to the city with the Can- ada Steamship Lines making an an- nouncement a few days later. With the re-opening of the harbour in the spring of 1931, Oshawa Har bour will commence on its first full season of shipping. There is little doubt that the harbour is to play an important part in the development of this city. t The City council also have recog- nized the future of the district sur- rounding the harbour and at a re cent meeting decided on the pur- RAPID PROGRESS IN CONSTRUCTION OF FACTORY PLANT Millard Planing Mill Pre pares to Care for Increas- ed Business Rapid progress is being made in the construction of a two storey addition to the planing mill of C. H. Millard, Richmond street east. The contract for the excavation for a foundation was let to Nor- man Brown, of North Oshawa, The building is 28 feet by 60 feet wide, and is of frame construction with a conerete floor. Roofing is being supplied by the Oshawa Roofing Cc 0. ; The addition is being built to care for increased business of the planing mill as it has contracted to manufacture incubators for the Bundy Incubator Co. of Canada. ROYAL TEMPLARS HOLD RALLY HERE The annual rally night of the Royal Templars of Temperance, Council No. 58, Oshawa, was held Tuesday night in the lodge rooms. Some fifteen members of the North Toronto council attended the rally and took part in the program. The first part of the evening was taken up with a short business meeting following which a program of fine numbers was heard. Those who took part in the program were Mrs, Partridge, Toronto, solos, Mr. Hamman, Toronto, violin solos; William Digby, Toronto, recita- tions; W. A. Jordon, Toronto, reci- tations; Miss Britten, Oshawa, piano solo; Miss Fleming, Oshawa, vocal solo. Community singing was indulged in by the gathering and proved very enjoyable to all. The evening was brought to a close with the serving of delicious refreshments. chase of more land in the vidinity for industrial purposes. In years to come that part of Oshawa adjacent to the harbour will probably be dot- ted with factories tending to make Oshawa one of the biggest industrial cities in the Dominion. In the bring- ing of these industries to Oshawa harbour will probably play no small part. VETERANS OF 116TH URGED TO ATTEND BATTALION REUNION Oshawa veterans of the famous 116th Battalion are urged to take notice of the following peremptory order in connection with the ban- quet and re-union to be held in Toronto on Saturday November 15: Oshawa, 10. 11, 30.

The verdict stated that death was caused by an abnormal physi- cal condition brought about by her own action in attempting to better a condition of health, Sev- eral witnesses were examined at the inquest which was presided over by Coroner Dr. W. A. Mecln- tosh, and among them were Dr. Edwin Copeman, Dr, Richard Hicks of Brantford, Dr. Ried and Roy Aynsley. An ante morte statement was read by her attend- ing physician.

The heads of delegations met again this afternoon to discuss for- eign policy, and at another meeting tonight they expect to clear up the remaining business in readiness for a final plenary session of the con- ference tomorrow, On the constitutional side two fur- ther decisions were reached. These were: ' (1) The proceedings of the con-| ference when published will contain a declaration that the appointment: of governors-general in the domin- fons is a matter between the King himself and the government of the dominion concerned; that the King in this matter will act on the advice of his dominion ministers and that formal advice will be tendered to His Majesty after informal consulta- tion. The question of the channel of communication, the declaration will further state, is a matter con- cerning the King and the dominion, The British government, however, has let it be known that it is ready to help in any way. (2) A further decision affects the status of dominion high commission- ers in London, They will now fol- low in precedence any British minis- ters present, bit will not go higher than immediately-following principal BLAME ATTACHED [Liability For Support Of Child is Appealed By Divorced F ather Lucius Wright Had Been Sentenced in Local Police Court to Term of Thre Months--Appeal Heard in First Divisional Court, To. ronto ; The fact that Ontario's now divorce legislation is completely lacking in provision for the child- ren of divorced parents was again emphasized yesterday during the hearing of an appeal in First Divi- sional Court, at Toronto, brought by Lucius Wright, Oshawa, against conviction and sentence for fail- ing to support his eight-year-ol8 daughter. Judgment was reserved. Under the present state in On- tario, Mr. Justice Middleton re- marked, there is no law which makes a father civilly liable for the care of his children. He sug- gested to W. B., Common, repre senting the attorney-general"s de- partment, that the Provincial Leg- islature might well introduce such legislation. Mr, Justice Hodgins pointed out that Parliament had failed to in- clude in the Ontario divorce bill provision for the children of div- orced parents. Chief Justice Sir William Mul- only a moral duty on the father for the responsibility of his child- ren, Mr. Common, however, held that a man who didn't care for his children was criminally liable, if not civilly. The appellant, who was repre- sented by A. C. Hall, of Oshawa, had been given three months' im- prisonment when he voiced his objection to the magistrate's deci- sion that he report once a month to the police. Lucius Wright was arraigned in police court here on October 23rd. At the conlusion of the hearing of the case in which Wright woud not agree to any settlement that the court suggested, His Worship Magistrate Creighton stated that the accused would be bound over to report to the police at intervals Wright at once said "I object". His Worship then said that he would be given three months' im- prisonment, The charge was brought against Wright by his former wife from whom he was divorced some time ago. At the hearing of the case in police court, Mrs. Wright told the court that she was unable to sup- port their child properly, Wright wag willing to take the child and care for it but the court ruled that the mother would take the best care of it and that the child should UNITED CHURCH MODERATOR WILL VISIT THIS CITY Dr. E. H. Oliver Expected Here Next Wednesday Officers of Whitby Post of The Canadian Legion Regret Night Rt. Rev. Edmund H, Oliver, Ph.D., F.R.8.C., Moderator of the United Church of Canada, Is ex- pected to visit Oshawa on Wed- nesday, November 19. The modera- tor has intorrupted his Ontario tour to accompany Rev.

One car in particular that at- tracted considerable interest on King street, was an American car with three burly hunters all of whom had secured a deer. The deer were very fine specimens and well worthy of the pride of their owners. ATTENDED COBOURG BANQUET President George Walsh, Bob Gib- bie, D. J. Thomas and M. Mcintyre Hood, of the Oshawa Branch of the Canadian Legion, were in Cobourg Tuesday night attending the annual Armistice Banquet of the Cobourg Branch. . Comrades Walsh and Gib- bie helped in the entertainment by singing solos, while Comrade Hood was the speaker of the evening, re- sponding to the toast to "The Cana- dian Legion." CASE DISMISSED Magistrate Creighton dismissed the charge of non-support, which was laid against Frank Buckley by his wife, and which was heard in the court on November 6th. His Worship informed Buckley that he was not able to convict him on the evidence that had been adduced in court, but warned him that he was still liable for pay- ment of money to his wife under the provisions of an agreement en- tered into by the husband and wife. His Worship commented, that while the evidence at the hearing of the case did not show that the acclised had any permanent source of income, he would advise him to make every effort possible to live up to the terms of the agree- ment, as Mrs, Buckley has legal rights against her husband. SUPPER DANCE AT GENOSHA The fourth of the series of sup- per dances at the Hotel Genosha is announced for tomorrow evening, starting at nine o'clock, and juds- ing from the interest which has heen created in these jolly little entertainments, it is expected that it will be the most successful of the scason so far. The arrange- ments for handling parties of from two persons up to any number have been highly commended by those who have attended the pro- vious dances, and many citizens are taking advantage of this op- portunity of entertaining their friends in an enjoyable manner.

Harston States A splendid crowd attended the evangelistic service at Simcoe Street United Church last evening. The text of Rev, Harston's sermon was from the eightneeth chapter of St, John: "Not this man, h Barabbas." Vividly he portrayed | the picture of Christ and the thief Barabbas awaiting the judgment of the people, for according to the custom, one of the prisoners should he released at the time of the Passover. Although a robber, Barabbas was the choice of the people. Mr, Harston explained how it is still for the people to decide between Christ and Barab- bas, Christ representing all that is good and righteous in the world and Barabbas, typical of the popu- lar worldly man. The Adanac Male Quarette who sang at one other of the meetings last week, were on the programme again last evening and the sincer- ity of their singing and the choice of their numbers, including, "Lead Kindly Light." "Steal Away," and "I Wandered Far Away From God," lent much to the earnest- ness of the meeting.

HOUCK Accused Remanded Until Accident Victim Can Appear in Court Charles Houck, appeared in po- lice court this morning to answer to the charge of causing bodily harm by wanton and furious driv- ing. The charge was laid against Houck on October 2nd, following an accident on October 1st, at the corner of McLaughlin Boulevard and Simcoe street north, in which, it is alleged, a car which he was driving. struck a bicycle on which Alderman C. Harman was riding. According to information gained at the time, Alderman Harman was riding north on Simcoe street and was attempting a make a left hand turn on to McLaughlin Boule- vard when he was struck by the Houck car, which it is alleged, was travelling at an excessive rate of speed. Alderman Harman was knocked from his bicycle and sus- tained injuries to his back that confined him to the hospital until Octobed 31st. Crown Attorney 'McGibbon in- formed the court this morning that he was not ready to proceed with the case, as Alderman Har- man was not yet able to appear in court. Mr. McGibbon considered that the case ought to be adjourn- ed for two weeks, in order that the injured man might be present. His Worship then set November 27th as the day on which the case would be heard. Bafl of $10,000 was renewed for the appearance of Houck on November 27th.

Would Have Exerted Every Effort to Bury Ontario Hospital Patient With Full Military Honors MINISTER DID NOT Rev. T. F. Best States He Would Have Taken Ac- tion To Have Held Mili- tary Funeral In connection with a report ap- pearing in The Oshawa Times yes terday and coming from The Cane adian Press to the effect that a re- turned soldier, Wilfred Seago, who died at the Ontario Hospital, Whit- by, had been buried in Groveside Cemetery north of Whitby without military honors or regular burial service, no statement could be ob- tained from hospital officials at Whitby this morning. It was state ed at the hospital that Dr. G. H. Stevenson, Medical Superintendent, was out of town and that no state- ment could be issued until hig re turn, Enquiry made by The Times, however, revealed the fact that Messrs. Nicholson and Seldon, who handled the funeral for a Toronto undertaker received no information that the deceased man was a fre- turned soldier. The only instfuc- tions they received were to bury the man and no information as to his identity was given. The regular burial certificate showing his name was secured from the hospital, Both Messrs. Nicholson and Seldon stated today that had they known the de- ceased was a returned man some arrangements would have been made for burial with military hon- ors. Rev. T. F. Best, Minister of Whit- by Baptist Church, who was called in to conduct a service at the under- taking parlors, stated that he had no knowledge that the deceased was a returned soldier, otherwise he would certainly have taken action to have a military funeral arrang- ed. Captain Best stated, however, that no arrangement was made with him to go to the cemetery and con- duct a service. Captain Best regrett« ed very much that matters had turn ed out as described by the Toronto papers. Regret Incident Officers of the Whitby branch of the Canadian Legion stated today that they regretted very much that the fact that the deceased was a Great War ceteran, Had they known they would have exerted every ef- fort to have had the man buried with full military honors. The Le- gion officials said that they intend to make it plain to outside papers, which carried the story of Private Sleago's death, that they were ab- solutely ignorant of the eircum- stances and that they would' at all times endeavor to prevent any fure ther occurrence of a like nature, Born THOMPSON--Born November 9th, t E.
