ht ie e ipa en . PAGE TWO At a court held by Douglas Daâ€" â€"vidson, J.P., in the library hall on Monday Robert Arding, Fred Arding and Ethel Arding were charged with stealing burlap, the property_of Mr. Grobba of Mimico. On behalf of the accused Lawyer Rooney pleaded not guilty. For the prosecution Andrew Lindstrom, a foreman of Mr. Grobba, was the first witness called. In anâ€" swer to questions put by the solicitor for Mr. Grobba, witness stated that he had been along with Constable Renton to the property of Mr. Arâ€" ding, father of the accused people, and bad seen burlap very similar to that which Shad been taking from Mr. Grobba‘s property. Mr. Rooney objected to the line of questioning adopted by the prosecuting solicitor. The witness was then questioned by Mr. Rooney, who asked why he should suppose that the missing burlap was the same that he had seen at Mr. Arâ€" ding‘s. The witness stated that he supposed so because it was similar to the piece that had been taken. After a question of the length and width had been discussed, the witness was allowed to retire. Mrs. Riding was the next witness called, and gave eviâ€" dence to the effect that she had seen the accused carrying a roll of burâ€" lap from the direction of Grobba‘s and carry the same into the properâ€" ty of Mr. Arding. This was on the first of August and later, on Septemâ€" ber 6th, stated the witness, she saw the same piece of burlap hanging on a line in Mr. Arding‘s yard. She then notified Constable Renton _ of what she had seen, and told him to come over and see it. The next witâ€" ness called was Reginald F. Riding, the nine year old son of the last witâ€" ness, who corroborated substantially the evidence of his mother. Mrs. Shannon was the next witness called, and gave evidence to the effect that she had seen the Arding children carâ€" rying what appeared to be a roll of ‘eloth or canvass in the direction of the Arding home, and had seen what she believed to be the same material hanging upon a line in the Arding wyard. Mrs. Grobba was next called, and stated that Mrs. Arding had been over to her place and told her that she had purchased burlap at Eaton‘s. This was the day after the canvas had been alleged to have been seen on the line in Mrs. Arding‘s yard. Constable Renton stated that he had been inâ€" formed that burlap had been taken from Mr. Grobba‘s property on sevâ€" eral occasions, and that he had been on the lookout several days and nights after for anyone coming around Mr. Grobba‘s place. On September 6th, Mrs. Riding, he stated, asked him to itake a look over Arding‘s yard and see the canvas that was stretched over a line. The constable questioned Mrs. Arding about the canvass and stated that Mrs. Arding replied that the canâ€" vass had been purchased at Eaton‘s wtro years ago, but later changed her mind and said it would be four years ago when the canvas was bought.

Mr. Grobba stated that he had lost several pieces of canvas and that about the first of August a large piece was missing and from â€" information received was led to suspect the missâ€" ing piece was in the possession of Mr. Arding, and therefore laid@the charge against the two boys and the girl. For the defence the first witness called was Mr. Albert Arding, the faâ€" ther of the accused boys and girl. Mr. Arding denied having any piece of canvas at any time around his yard that was anything like 30 or 40 feet long. The next witness for the deâ€" fence was Mrs. Arding, mother of the accused, who corroborated the stateâ€" ments of her husband and also denâ€" ied that her girl was with the boys that evening. Charles Woolley testiâ€" fied that he was a frequent visitor to the home of Mr. Arding and had ofâ€" ten seen canvas around the place, but in reply to Mr. Roney could not say that he had ever seen a piece of canâ€" vas 30 or 40 feet long. John Lubâ€" bock testified that he had sold canâ€" vas on several occasions to Mr. Arâ€" ding as an employee of the T. Eaâ€" ton Co., and that the last occasion was on the 7th of September last. Ethel Arding, one of the occused, gave evidence on her own behalf, staâ€" ted that she was out on the night of August. the first with her sister and their two friends. Fred Arding, one of the boys accused, also denied the charge. Violet Arding gave evidence to the effect that she was with her sister on that night, and was followed by Ray Horton who corroborated. Mr. Rooney asked for an acquittal on the grounds that the evidence did not prove the canvas seen in the yard of Mr. Arding was the canvas that Mr. Grobba had lost, and commented upâ€" on the prejudice of several of the witnesses against the Arding family. Magistrate Davidson was satisfied, however, that the accused were guilty and after putting the matter strongâ€" ly to Mr. Arding to look more strictâ€" ly after his family, let them go. on suspended sentence, and warned them that if there was any more trouble he would send the boys to the Inâ€" dustrial School and the girl to â€" the Farm. * Literary evening of the Senior Epâ€" worth League was held on Monday, September 16th, at the Mimico Meâ€" thodist Church.
