‘DEAD MAN’ APPEARS AT

“Testifies For Justice” In Probate Court Action At Halifax Re Late Wife’s Will.

(C. P. by Guardian's Special Wire) HALIFAX, Jan. 13-Into the Halifax Court of Probate today rolled a. 60-year old seamen claim- i11g to be Hairy Crocker, a man ,who was believed to have died 25 years ago, and recounted a. tale rivallirig that of Enoch Arden. ~ The court, hearing an action to set aside the $20,000 will of Mrs. Sarah Crocker Giberson of Halifax, was astounded to hear Crocker claim to be the undivorccd first husband of the woman whose body was found in Halifax harbor last

Juno

If registrar of probate R. F. Yeo- man who is hearing the case recog- ‘nized the identifications Crocker produced in court today, claims of Blanchard Giberson, her second husband, and Mrs. Lorna Albbott, a relative. against provisions of the estate will be annulled.

Crocker told the court he had come here from London "as a wit- nee to testify for justice" as soon as he learned. the $20,000 his wife left the Salvation Army in a will drawn up in 1912 was being con- -testcd. .

He said he was "unbiassed" ag- ainst the estate and had no desire for any part of it. He had been locum! in London by T. Clyde Doyle, Halifax barrister, and had come here to testify on his own volition.

As identification to the court, he produced his birth certificate, a certificate of marriage, and papers of his record in the British navy. A picture of Crocker as u young man, the possession of the late lvfrs. Crocker Giberson, “'11s pro- duced in court. ‘

Crocker also bored his arm to show tatoos, hereditary nav iden- tification marks. and said e was willing to strip to the waist to show more 011 his chest.

The "man who came back“ de- scribed his montage to Sadie Davenport, Halifax restaurant girl. when the fleet was in in 189B.

He said he had married her in St. Paul's Church here after the third time he met her.

Visibly moved, he told of his nine years of life with Sadie Davenport. On his wedding night he-lost his good conduct papers because he ovcrstayed his leave. Later he bought his release from the navy and took his wife and four-year- old daughter to Brixton, London.

After four years of married life in England, he said, his wife be- came tired of him and bought tic- kcts for herself and daughter hack to Canada.

After his wife left him. the re- tired soilor began a life of wand- ering and when the Great War broke out rejoined the navy in his old capacity as a. first class sig- naller.

I o said he had neither seen nor heard from his wife for almost 3O years. .

Questions of the lawyers regard- fr". his wife's second marriage and a hinted previous marriage were disallowed.

The hearing was adjourned until Monday morning after Crockers testimony was completed.

INDICTMENTS

(Continued from 1133c!) Highway Traffic Act.

Crown Prosecutor D. Edgar Show 8.0.. announced that in the ooze, the King, appellant, vs. Helen Mc- Gulgan, respondent, notice oi ab- andonment had been flied although the case had. been dockctcd. It was an appeal by the Crown from a. ‘dismissal under the Prohibition Ac . Court meets this morning at ll o'clock.

The following is a summary of evidence taken in the appeal case the King vs. Martin Egan.

Patrick F. Morris, Mounted Pol- ice constable, Charlottetown, told of making a. search, in company with Constable Shaw, at 66 King street, premises occupied by Jue McDonald, on Sunday moming. August 16. As the police drove up a girl who was sitting on a bench in front got up and ran into the house. The witness followed her into the kitchen and saw several Kirls. two, three or four, run out. He saw Martin Egan on the run a pace or so from the McDonald buck uoor. The witness followed Egan, lost sight of him momentarily around the end of a barn and came up tothe end of a-thirtecn inch passage between the born and a small adjoining building to see the accused recovering from a Sideways stooped position at the far end o1’ the nine foot passage- WRY- Egan stood up and came out.

The witness said, “bring ti1e dish out. with you."

Egan replied, “what dish?"

The witness then went pragtjc- ally all the way to the far end of the passage, which was closed at the far end by boardsone of which was ofl‘. and looked under the buildings. He came out then and went over the fence into the ad- joining yard and there. opposite

tween the barns he found a quurt bottle of rum. The bottle was perfectly clean without any dust 0n it. The bottle was clearly vis- ible.

Cross examined by Mr. Johnston the witness said that the police had made but a routine search of the McDonald premises. They found no liquor there. He did not1know for a certainty who owned the premises where the liquor was found.

Constable- Morris» was the only witnem called by the Crown,

Mari-111 Egan, who resides at the Aberdeen Hotel at 70 King St.. next door to the McDonald resid- enc". in his evidence told that on the Sunday morning in question he was at Buntains wharf and about dinner time. accompanied by Gordon Lund, he started home.

On the way through the 111ml; Yards from Riley's Lane to the hotel the witness stopped for a short time at the entrance to the

13-inch passageway. Lu11d went on and went into the McDonald homo by way of the back door. The witness did not go into the McDonald house at all. Morris came along as the witness stood by the passageway and said “you'd better bring that dish out," and the witness replied. “what dish are you talking about?"

Morris then went around the yard and over the fence into the adjoining yard. The witness stood in the first yard and shortly after Morris came back over the fence and showed the witness a bottle and Bskcd if he had ever seen it before.

The witness replied "no." Mor- ris did not mention running from McDonald's or anything else.

He was perfectly sober, the wit- ness said. and knew nothing about the liquor. He had had none in his possession that morning.

Cross examined by Mr. D. Edgar Show, K.C. Egan said the whole story of his running across the McDonald yard was untrue. The first witness saw of Morris was when he came around the corner of the barn. He saw no one else running but Morris. He did not know why Morris said "bring out the dish" when he was not in the passageway.

To a question by the court the witness said that the finding of the bottle did not create any excite- ment to his knowledge.

Gordon Lund, the next witness, told of accompanying Egan from the wharf to the McDonald yard as far as the end of the barn.

The witness went into the Mc- Donald home and went through the house to the parlor where he found Mr. McDonald to whom he talked for fifteen or twenty min- utes. Joe did not appear to know the police were there. The wit- ness learned about it when he went out. He heard them "talking about it" be said. The witness said he must have been in the parlor when the search was being made. He had heard someone going

,1 through the hall.

Cross examined by the Attorney General the witness said it was right after he hoard the running that he went out and into his own house, he guessed.

The Attorney General: "You were in the parlor 15 or 20 min- utes after you heard , the run- ning?" '

The witness replied no, that he had heard the running through the hall shortly after he went into

the parlor and that he left after being there for i5 or 20 minutes. If he said differently before itwec an error.

When h! went through the kit- chen the only person he saw there was 11 girl, Mary Austin. The only persons he saw in the house was the girl in the kitchen and Joe in the parlor.

What surprises may be in the Throne Speech remain to be seen. This document is a closely guarded secret up to the moment His Ex- cellency arises to read it, first in English and then in French.

The speech will probably refer to the abdication of King Edward and the accession of George VI and will state that Parliament will be asked early in the session to take necessary steps to ratify the action taken during the crisis by the D0- minion Government.

Some reference will almost cer- tainly be made to the internation- al situation and to Canada's asso- ciation with the League of Nat- ions.

Employment conditions will be mentioned with the report that more people are at work than a year ago but that relief will con- tinue to be a. problem which the government proposes to meet in some measure in introducing new housing legislation.

With respect to the textile in- dustry and anthracite coal it will be povsible to state that the in- quiries announced in the speech lust year have been practically completed and that legislation based upon them may appear dur- ing the forthcoming session.

Social legislation remains in the same position as a year ago when it was announced that eight stat- utes and industrial life of the peo- ple had been referred to the courts for a. test of their constitutional validity. .

her and she went into the house. Mary had something to give the witness, she said. The two girls went out then by the back door and into Lund?! next door where Mary was staying with her sister. Mrs. Lund. The witness did not see Martin Egan at all. He was not in the house when the officers came.

Cross examined by Hon. Mr. Campbell the witness said she was employed at McDonalds at the time in question. She had finished her work on that Sunday and was sit- ting on the bench at the front of the house when the Mounted Pol- ice drove up. Just then Mary Austin, who has since gone to the United States, called to the wit- ness who got up and went inside. The two girls had gone out of the kitchen before the police came in. She imagined there would be no one in the kitchen when the pol- ice reached it. When she left she did not know that the police were going i11to the house. Mrs. Mc- Donald wa-s away at the time.

The deposition of Mary Austin in the lower court was admitted in evidence.

The Crown called Constable Al- ban Shaw to rebut evidence that Mrs. McDonald was absent on the day of the search.

Constable Show testified that ho had seen Mrs. McDonald outside the back door, four or five paces from it. The witness went into the kitchen behind Morris.
