The first wit- ness was D. J. Dawson, Wolfe Island township clerk, Minutes.of the meet- ing of ebraary 15th, 1905, were then shown, when Captain Crawford was five the captaincy of the steamer awcett, now Wolfe Idander, at 80 yearly. Dawson could not say, official ly, when the captaincy of Crawford terminated on the ferry. In the min. utes of June 5th, it was seen he had no r charge, and had been given #50. Capt. Winborne evidently became the Wolfe Jdlander's master, as he was given the July salary. The agree. ment between the township and Craw. ford was: "Captain Crawford to be master of steamer Wolfe Islander, nt $600 per armum, board and lodging included. A month's notice could not terminate contract, No official ap ointment was entered into with Win ne. John 1. Whiting, K.C.. took the case for the township of Wolfe Island. No bylaw was passed confirming Crawford's appointment. Captain James Crawford took box, He recognized his signature the contract of February 15th, His work for the township commenced raary 1st, and terminated May 25th, Reeve Briceland, employed and gave him his dismissal, because he re fused to unload freight, considering it out of his line. Briceland said he cotld obtain a master who could do unloading. 1 said, "1 don't consider it the captain's duty to unload the car. gv." Briceland said. I could leave as soon as I desired, | was absent from the boat about fifteen minutes at Lawyer Rioney's office, and on my re turn found the boat was at the G. T. R. wharf, and Winborne in charge. Briceland's cheave, tendered by his son, was refused. Crawford told My. Whitine the season ovened April 10th He had unloaded freight, He went to the wharf to be of assistance if possi ble. He would not take the cheque for his twenty-five davs' pay: he wanted the full season's monev. He also re- fused cheque because he felt Brice Innd had no right to abuse and dis tharge him before a dock fll of peo He. Councillor Armstrone after sosing Messrs. Horne and Flynn, asked me if 1 would go back and 1 said 1 would if the other man was put off. 1 didn't object to Briceland, hut | didn't wish to take orders from him individuals the on but from the whole conne'l. At the meetine of council Tune 5th. Craw ford said hs would retitm to the steamer if Winborne was discharaed To Mr. Rigney he said the council as a body did not ask him to return to the steamer, W. WH. Woodman, a resident of Wolfe Island, was present on the boat as » passenger, on May 25th. Disconssed Crawford with Rriceland, Asked where was the third deck-hand. usually ene ried 'on Thursday, Briceland said he cold pot 4 man cheaper than Craw ford, who would handle freight and he mkl do it. Witness swore it was customary to have three deckhands on Thursday, when possible to wet them Jamen Davis, mate on the who was on board when the trouble took place, overheard very little of the dispute with Briceland and Craw ford. Thought there were four deck hands, last year. Briceland told him steamer, shortly after arrival of boat at dock that Winborne would take charge. Capt. Crawford always lent a helping hand, though he never ran a truck, Witness always unloaded freight at ferry dock, and it was not unusual for the captain to leave the boat at the ferry dock. "I don't know that 1 have seen the present captain use 4 truck, since coming on the steamer, though he lends a hand." He told, Mr, Whiting, he, himself used a truck, Grecory Keogan, purcer on the Wolfe Islander, and was on hoard the day of the trouble. He remembered Brice land on a trip over, and had been asked for money by the reeve to pay the cantain, shortly after tyine up at the wharf. T eaid: "1 haven't any money. if you want to pay the money You will have to give a cheque. Brice land told me to tell passengers there would be ng 11.30 teip." Mr. Whiting got a "yes" to th question that the trip was cancelled bosause the boat was late. The purs er did not hear the captain ask the reeve for his money. Deckhand Heppner said this was his first seavon and that he was one of two deckhands om every day, hut " Thursday, when there were usually three. He heard Capt. Crawford say to the move, that he didn't have t, run a tik; if Briceland wanted him to do so >he could give thirty notice. Witness was on Winborne came on. To Whiting, witness said, he not told to "take it easy" ing. Dr. McCarthy, a resident of Marys ville, was on the wharf and overheard Brieeland say if the captain would not rm a track he could go, without a minnte's notice, ho need not give thir ty days. Captain said he would not load freight because it was not ac cordine to his contract. Witness told Mr. Whiting he did not come to the city, thinking the cantain was dis mised, and not knowing whether he days hoard when Was in unload master on the route taken by the Wolfe Idander, said: "IT considet wheeline trucks not part of cantain'e dnte--there «ro deckhande for that." Thomas Flinn, counsillor for the townshin of Wolfe Toland, eaid on fhe The was op the now well known dav of the dispute, Bricelond out. Mr. Whiting put no witness in ths stand, asking for a non-suit, contend- ing that the contract with Capt. Crawford was not broken, and that only y was due him for services done. Briceland did not dismiss the tain bot Crawford" said to him, "If you say so I'll go now." Accord: ing to this, he could not say he was discharged. Also the reeve was not authorized to dismiss Crawford, whe received his appointment by the town- ship council. Further he told council he would not retarn to steamer unless Reeve Briceland was put ont. Several similar cases to the present one were pointed out by*Mr. Rigney wherein ing it, without a just reason, he was entitled to damages. The court or dered the case to proceed and the de fense is now being heard. AT THE GRAND. Joseph Murphy to Be Heise To- Night. - JOSEPH MURPHY.
