The Peterboro Examiner says: When John Doherty,a young Oton- abee farmer living near Drummond's Station, finished a long day's work Wednesday ght about ten o'clock he wasn't sure that it was mot his last. In his pocket was a letter from Kingston ordering him to report for military service, and he was already four or five days overdue. He had been torn by forces that are now in open conflict; on the one hand was hig' father's farm depleted of man power, and the seeding unfinished, and on the other were gaps in the army, with a place assigned to him. He had taken the liberty to remain those three or four days begause there was so much to do and so iittle done. But they were uneasy days. The shadow of the military police of- ficer seemed to follow him, and the letter with its railway pass and two doMars for personal expenses was a constant reminder that his plough had been superseded by the sword, S0 last night he concluded that' the wisest course was to report for duty. After supper he went through his chores in the ordinary routine, and treated the seed with formaldehyde. At ten o'clock he turned his back on home and, without telling His parents that he was going, struck across the field to the railway and walked the eight miles to Peterboro, He reach- de the city about midnight, and was noticed by Sergt. Blade and Consta- bles Deannard and Brumley on the George street beat. He had intended to wait until morning for the G.T.R train, but the police advised him to take the midnight C.P.R., transfer- ring at Sharbot Lake for Kingston. Doherty was dressed just as he had dropped the plough, in overalls and smock. Te told the police that he wished to avoid the scene of part- ing at home, thinking it would be i | I | Property Jair towess; Mrs. Robert Baer, 1 {| Cadkoire 'tobacco; Eve- better to write his parents from Kingston, Sergt, Blade saw him off, sending him away with a cheery mes- sage instead of apprehending him as a deserter and probably claiming the ten dollars which is allowed in such cases. Doherty told him that this working day had been from 5 a.m. (new time) until eight at night. Af- ter the day's work in the fields, he had to feed and bed the catdle, and prepare the grain for the néxt day, and was out again at five. His fath- ex's land comprised 320 acres, He has a brother in England, and there now remain at home his father, who he said was advanced in years and unfitted for hard work by rheuma- tism, and a young brother whose help was limifed. When he boarded the train, it was his second experi- ence; the other ride had been from Drummond's Station to Peterboro. Doherty departed, as unsophisticated as the country makes them, with the intention of explaining his delay. in reporting to the authorities at Kings- ton and of asking permission for leave until June 1st, in order that he might complete the seeding at home. in long stretches from 5 a.m. until 10 p.m. He had never been examined by the doctors, having applied for and obtained exemption as a farmer, But the Built no expectations of being rejected, and was even doubtful of recelving the leave that is now granted to farm draftees.
