Bought Tignish Un

Six persons were buying illegally caught lobsters on the breakwater at Tignish last Fall it was reveal- ed before a. Royal Commission at Alberton yesterday probing the i1- legai fishing of lobsters and smelts during 1936 by Frank Peters, Tig- nish fisherman. m. Peters stated that lobsters were purchased both during the day time and at night last Fall during the closed season.

It was announced last night that the Commission which had been sitting here since Tuesday of last week would adjourn this evening for ten days or more in order that Mr. Justice A. T. leBianc, the Commissioner, might fulfill a Court Session at Dalhousie, N. B. starting on Tuesday next. ‘The Commission will return to Alberton probably the 3rd weekln May and in and“- ion to further sessions there will also be sittings at Tignlsh, O’I..ea,ry, Suxnmerside and Borden.

Eight witnesses, placing the to- tal number heard here to 53 and the total since the Commission started at Newcastle, January 7th l0 314. were heard yesterday.

The first witness called yesterday morning was Hubert Gaudet, Tig- nlsa fishemian who stated he had been fishing for the past 25 years. He poached last year in partnership ivith Ferdinand Gaudei; and the pair had sold their catch to John Mlclnms. Four years ago witness told Commission Counsel. H. F. G. Bridges, that he had canned in the vicinity of 28 cases of lobsters il_ legally but had not canned any since that time.

“How _ma.ny boats have you seen fishing in Tlgflish last Y'all?"

“I have seen ten or fifteen boats but I do not know that they were fishing lobsters."

He stated his catch was usually landed at the Tignish breakwater at night.

Frank Peters another Tignish fisherman followed to the stand and stated during the past 15 years he had poached off and on for six years. He had fished illegally with Wm. Peters in 1938 and their total catch of approximately 4000 lbs was sold to C. F. Morrissey.

“Where did you land your lob- sters?"

“At the Tignish breakwater".

"Did you know C. F. Morrissey was operating a cannery during the closed season last year?"

"I had an idea he was."

"How many buyers were there on the breakwater at Tignish last Fall?"

"There were six."

"Who were they?”

“C. F. Morrissey. John Gavin, John Molnnis, R. McRae, Osborne Lefurgey and Emmerson Matthews. These men were not there all the time but I know that number bought there at intervals."

“Do you know Frank Doucette from Rexton, N. 3.?"

“Yew.

"He told us in Buctouche that he lhad seen you selling lobsters to Geo. McRae on the breakwater at Tignish last Fall; is that correct?"

"Well George McRae weighed lobsters for me there for John Gavin."

“Is it true that you and- other fishermen at Tignish took up a. collection for Doucette?"

“Yes?

“Was that to keep him quiet so that he would not tell all he saw?"

“No it was to get him something to eat." ‘

The witness said he had never heard Capt. Arsene Gallant a pa- trol boat Captain state he would go back poaching if he lost his job and he did not think Capt. Gallant poached lobsters last Fall.

Jerome Doucette, Pleasant View lobster packer was the third wit- ness this morning and he told of canning 80 boxes of illegally caught lobsters in 1936 1n an empty house and of handling in addition some 168 boxes of illegally canned lobsters which he bought from different persons. The entire number were sold io J. H. Myrick Company at ‘Tignlsh. Mr. Doucette said he felt the shifting of the line separating districts 7 and 8 would be bene- ficial to the fishermen on the West side and expressed the opinion it would stop illegal fishing in that terri .

"Did you ever hear of Edmund lihlansoxfs boat having been over here buying lobsters?"

"No but there was a boat over hero from New Brunswick three or four years ago trying to trade rum for lobsters".

Joseph Doucette, brother of the previous witness and himself a lob- ster pecker at Pleasant View, stat- ed he had men poaching lobsters for him for the past several years. Last Fall his pack was between 25 and 80 cases. This year it was one half that number. The lobsters had been sold to J. H. Myrick Company at Tignish and a few cases to H. W. Tidmarsh, Charlottetown. They were transported without permit.

"It there more poaching now than years ago?"

"Yes more during the last. five or six years."

The first witness in the after- notn was Hector Richards. Tignish. who stated he had never poached or canned ‘ ‘ ‘ ra illeflaliy in his

Poaced Lobsters

Breakwater

Commission To Adjourn Tonight. Will Reopen Investigation 3rd Week Of May. '

Ellsworth Gillis, Ellerslie, was then called. He stated in years gone by he had fished lobsters and smelts but had. been out of the lob- ster business since 1912. He sought permission to deal with the oyster situation but this was refused by the Commissioner. who pointed out his authority was confined to the investigation of ilegsl lobster and smelt fishing. The witness said he felt lobster poaching could be stop- ped here by handing over the pro- tection end of the administration to the R. C. M. P. who he thought would be more qualTied to fill the post than men now appointed through political qualifications ra- ther than on their ability.
