Before returning to duty, lie had placed the chiiciren in St. Vincent's Orphanage at a cost of $45 per month. Ho had been sep- aratcd ever since from his wife, now living in Summer-side. Be- cause of the domestic trouble he ‘had lost his home. He was honourcbly discharged ifrom the Army on Sept. 19,0945, and about a week later returned to work with the Telephone Com- 'pany. Upon his dischiirgc he had ‘taken his eldest son, Freeman. cut of the orphanage. The boy went to live with his grandmother Jemporarliy. When he secured a ,room at 13.’!

That never hap- pened more than once or twice a month. Com- Feb- "Uriusual Circumstances" On Saturday afternoon, April 20, he had bought a case of vendor's beer.

Those were unusual circum- stances which had never happen- ed before. McDonald and McAulsy iiad come to his room between two and three o'clock in the afternoon. McDonald had a bottle of rum and they had drunk that. There was about one drink lsft in the bottle when Martin came in around five o'clock. They had then gone to MrAulayi place and had a drink of McAulay/‘s whiskey. McDonald had then gone to the liquor store. Martin got a bottle cl rum and the accused a case of ale.

All he thought of was to get [down to the police station as :qulckiy as possible. l Ati the police station he had told his story and then had taken the officers to Mrs. Gallanfs ‘room. "I had no reason to kill ‘her. no to hurt her in any way." i Cross-examined by Mr. Camp- bell, the accused said he had not gone to sleep when locked up. "I jtook off my overcoat and put it [under my head for a pillow. I lures to? excited to sleep and was [much cxclted for the next two .weeks. It is not so bad now." It was true he had told the gpollce he had killed a wdman but jhe did not think now that he liad. There was no reason for him Ito do so because he had always ' liked Mrs. Gallant. CHARGE T0 JURY In charging tho jury_ His Lord- v ship said he believed they would find the case to be one of the simplest, yet it was also one of the most unusual in the homicide records of the County. They must deal with it on the sworn evi- dence, and on the evidence alone, oifacing from their minds all pre- judice and partlaliiy. The Crown must satisfy the jury beyond a reasonable doubt as to the pris- chefs guilt, but this doubt must _ be an "honest doubt" and not one merely conjured up in order to escape making a hard decis- ion. Hia Lordship quoted at length from the provisions of the Grim- inal Code dealing with homicide. "Murder," he emphasized, "la based mainly. though not ex- clusively, on an intention to kill. Manslaughter, on the other hand. ir. hosed mainly. though not ex- riiislvely, on the absence of an intent to kill. but with the pres- rnce of an element of unlawful- gness which is the elusive factor. Right here I must caution you that it. is a well established maxim of the common law that a man is presumed to have intend- led the natural consequences of his acts." \ y There did not appear to be any i doubt that Mrs. Clailantu death ed today that the current business boom in the United Slates pro- vldes the means for reducing the £259.750.000.000 national debt "if we have th! stamina." The occasion was unveiling of a ‘vronze statue to Albert Gallstin, the Swiss-born fourth (1801-1813) Secretary of the Treasury of whom Snyder said: "Gallatin was the first to de- velop tho theory that during times of national peace and pics- perity, the treasury must show ample surpluses to be applied t0- ‘ ward an orderly reduction of the public debt." In a dedicatcry speech, Snyder said: "We of this generation face the problem of a huge national dpbt resulting from the extraordinary expenditures of ivar. "We, too, are experiencing an unusual prosperity", which will permit us, if we have the stamina to reduce that debt and thus strengthen our financial struc- ture."

"It ls a question for you to de- I cide. first, whether the prisoner in causing" the death of Mary Jane Gallant meant to cause her ueath, or if the prisoner meant to cause to the said Mary Jane Gai- lant any bodily injury which was known to the prisoner to be like- iy to cause death, and was reck- less whether death ensued or not, or if the prisoner meant to cause death or being so reckless as aforesaid meant to cause such bodily injury as aforesaid l0 one person, and by accident or mis- take killed Mary Jane Gallant though he did not intend to hurt the said Mary Jane Gallant; or ii the prisoner, for any unlawful ‘ object, did an act which he knew or ought to have known to be likely to cause death. and thereby killed the said Mary Jane Gal- lant, though he may have desired that his object should have been effected without hurting any nne. If you decide in the affirmative than it is your duty to bring in a xerdict of ‘Guilty of murder.’ "It you decide in the negative, then you have to decide further whether or not the prisoner is guilty of manslaughter. If you de- cide the prisoner is so guilty, than your verdict should be ‘Not guilty of murder but guilty of manslaughter!" Referring to evidence given of the prisoner's drunkenness. the Court remarked that the general principle is that drunkeneness does not of itself comtltiite an excuse for crime.
