THE hfflh Evidence in the Hurdville Case at Parry Sound. [Ill SOAKED nm FOUND. I). was and Son Attempt to shield the Old Mar-it So Bad Now an The, Phi-tad Him-Pano- um u a Reporur~0thor 'rvtdertee-- “. Crown’s Theory. Parry Sound. May 9.-A charred, oil-soaked phi? of papers found in the ruins of the Parton home, in which the children were burned, relieved the monotony of an utiu-rwise feature- iaa investigation into the charge ot nurdor against. .luurph Parton to- day. Tho inquiry mu! on all after. noon and was all but voncluded when Constable A. li. tiuoianll produced this The Funny Attitude. The evidence given to-day was, with the exception first. mentioned. . Mappointmvnt to the Crown. lm. mediately after tue"tiFi; tne farbun boys wen most outspoken in their remarks. and it was as a result ot thu that an investigation was held. When roan-0mm! in court, P"tt'tre " was another matter. and those whose ata‘emenu were most Import. ant mowed a luck at mmnory and re- ticence which wld_dint'lnctly In the old man’s Invor. Tlie Parton boys. while compelled to admit the state- .enta as to thair Cather's cruelty made previously, dit their utmost to tone it down. Mrs. Parton show~ ed a similar ditqrtriiti'ou, and " look, ed as though the eiidence was not strong enough to warrant a com. mittal. The tindiur, ol ml. or grease- soaked papers. while in Itself by no moons conclusive. is a point which deserves some investigation. The bundle consisted of a large number of receipts on n spike file, whose place In the house was upstairs. sway trom the pantry or other source of oil. Partially burned as they are. the Crown believes they hon- been used as a sort of (use or kindler. The idea that they were oiled accidentally. or through con- not with some other burned material b not entertained seriously. Then: by whose hands was the oiling ttnd, lighting done? '. l The Crown's Theory. l ,' In reviewing the position ot the prisoner the motive of the crime. tor which he stands accused does not adtow immedlately on the surface. We theory ot the Crown appears to be that this general habit ot re- Rntlng his children as a burden led In to the extremity. when he was on the verge of moving to Parry Sound. ot taking this means ot wip- ing them out. This theory requires proof that Par-tons cruelty to and hatred of his children had existed up to the time ml the tragedy. In the witness box. however, the chil- dren declare this to have ceased when they crew up. The Crown has not the insurance leg to stand up- on. as the premises were uninsured. 0n the other hand, they were no longer the old man to property. James 3nd Alfred, two of the sons, having but recently bought the farm for .1900. The destruction of the pre- m was. therefore. no great fin- snc‘lal lose to Parton, while. admit- - tho (‘rnwn's theory. it disbur- ting the Crown's theory, it disbur-I dined him of his: children. t I The Day’s Evidence. The evidence today failed to es- tnbidi Parton’s nmvcments im- medntely preceding the fire. He re- tired about IO o‘clock. his wife im- mediately afterward». Mrs. Patton was awake until 11 and then slept awakened by the alarm, of tire from her daughter. When she Jumped from bed her husband was asleep, accord- ing to her statement. and had been ever since retiring. so far as one could tell. It is mill possible that he could have risen and come back to bed while she slept. she being at the hurt " the bed. The idea that the tire wan accidental received some support in the statement that the kitchen movepipe in passing through the ceiling water not protected by metal. on the other hand, there in the direct evidence that the tire broke out m1ntultaneouerly in the up- ltairs at both buildings in the log action on the side remote from the toe hole; in the other part no tire ad existed for two days. The girls were provided with a. lamp and there is no certainty that it was put out when they retired. Declares Ills Innocence. "Before God in heaven lam inno- cent. I my may Gail strike me down if lam not. lam as innocent as an urge! in heaven." it was with such decimation. as thch that Joseph Parton, accused of murdering his tire children. protested the haselessness of the charge tc-dos. Parton was in- terviewed in the court house before bin trial began. As he slouched into the little room alluttail by the sheriff for the purpose he bore every appear- ance ot lnfirmity and nttqtractedttetrtr, both of which uini-hed at times when he felt it necessary to give his story in dramatic gestures. Parton is of rugged build. rather (nurse and of very hard features. a face and eyes which seem foreign to sympathy. He talks with a slowness apparently born of age. but his logic and reason- ing power WPI'P shunting. He argued that he had been ill with the grip for three months and went so far as to my he had been halt crazy since the fire. but his NmVersatinn revealed " nan very sane and alive to the 0p- portnnity of presenting his defence to the public.

The investigation this afternoon was held in the court house, and was conducted by Police Magistrate Ferret. Mr. W. L. Haight, District Crown Attorney, and Mr. F. ll. Powell represented, the Crown and the accused respectively. The prisoner occupied a. seat: near the witness box during the proceedings. Most of the time his mind appeared to be fur oft, and he affected denim-as, but his face brightened with interest whenever a crucial point wan reached. The evidence given vovered largely the same ground as that Martha Parton, wife of the prim-) finer. the first witness, pointed out that the stoveplpe through the kitchen ceiling was unprotected from the wood save by wire supports. The boys had no lamp with them, but the girls had, and she could not swear it had been put out when they retired. On being awakened b.s her daughter's cry of fire she went to tho stairway and found the up. stairs in flames. but the downstairs was not. There Was plenty of time to rescue articles of value from downstairs had they neglected tho children. “But I had no thought of such , thing." she declared, with feeling. They had Intended mov- ing to Parry Bound that Thursday. Mrs. Parton admitted that her hus- band bad dealt harshly with the elder children. but said he was very good to the little ones. Amending this statement. she said the harsh ‘tvrmtment was in former year-3.8110 ‘would not deny her statement at the inquest. that as the boys grew up they left home on account of their father‘s violence. She denied that the children were kept away from LliGn" at the inquettt tho old man. They could go wherever they liked in the house. She admit- ted picking up a. bundle of partly burned munter checks or receipts in the ruins of the house. The coal on stock in the house had been ex- hausted since the previous Fridayor Saturday before the fire. All the all in tho house was in their two lamps. James Parton, the eldest boy at home, after describing the tire, said in reply to Mr. might: "Father has alwaya used me well enough slnce I was any size. He used to use me a little rough. but I needed some that I got then." The witness deem-ed his father had not used hiya cruelly and had not injured his back nor caused tho scar on his face. He would not say his father had wished to be rid ot them. He said. however, his father had often expressed the will] that "he and his brothers would stay away from home, as he had enough of the others to keep." Witness thought the fire was strange. He did not know how it was started. He did not know how It could have been an accident. In the excitement he had suspected someone of setting it on tire. At this point in the ex- amination the prisoner moved to one dde, and strained to watch the Treatment of Ills Fun“!- James Parton’s Evidence. to the witncm with Intense eurnestneu. -- - '.. " “a “a“.

He said that on April 30, the day succeeding the fire, the prisoner withdrew $itty dollars trom his accouno by check Two days at- terwards the old man entered and withdraw another ritty dollars. On the set-out} occasion he was accom- panied by one ot his sons. to whom he handed the money, Alfred Parton, recalled, said that WM the rutt S80 the old mum hunght some clothee for the family with part, and Care the rest to Mrs. Par. ton. He did not know what was done with the other sum. except that it was given to his elder brother John. J. C.
