It was quite evident from these tales that two of the boys were committing perjury but which two could oni: be ascertained. Harry Reynard and Wilson New- man admitted that the other two boys did not know they were going to steal the goods until the deed was commit- ted but agreed on the point that they had all shared in the stolen clothing, and had divided it up on a side road running east towards Bobcaygeon offl the Dunsford to Omemee highway. dance.

Before the magistrate gave his ver- dict Kelso pleaded with him for as light a sentence as possible, but not to be sent back to Guelph undeq any circumstances. Kelso, as he appeared in police court, looked more like a respectable young gentleman, than a criminal who had spent eight years of his life behind the bars.
