The attendance at the meeting was not as large as expected as membc s from outside the city were unable to be resent because of travellln conditons. Mr. A. P. Ceretti of orden was the only membe of the organization living outside of Charlottetown who was present and he was complimented for this effort by the president. The President and Provincial Commissioner resented reports of the year's act vlties which sum- marlzed the work carried on by the organization. The full text of these reports appears below. Mr. N. D. Davlson was re-ap- inted auditor of the Association or the coming twelve months. The nominating pommittec con- sisted of Major J. R. Paton, A. P. Cereitl and ROY D. Quigley. The financial report was read by the treasurer, Mr. Qulgley, which showed the funds of the or- ganization to be in good order. Need (Io-operation Mr. J. W. Dixon, president of- thc Queen's county District Coun- cll. signified his intention of mak- ing a survey of the troops in his territory with the idea of finding the best means of heliplng the troops to help themselves. He cit- ed the need of having harmonious and effective co-operaiion between the Scout Leaders and their Group Committees. " Mr. A. P. Ceretti, Assistant Dis- trict. Commissioner of Prince County, reported that 12 of his former Boy Scouts had joined the fighting forces. He. told of one of them hflvlng received a promotion in the navy because of his ability in making knots. The boy had learned this in the troop. Mr. Ceretti also stated he was willing that the Association take part of the Apple Day funds of his troop for registration fees. President Palmer had previously explained that. the Association would not hold a. campaign for funds this year. Instead of this they would find other means of securing funds. One way suggest- ed was that the various troops throughout the province see that the boys pay their registration fee of 50 cents each. The president also announced that the troops would be requested to leave part of the Aprple Day proceeds to cover this. He hoped that the whole council would get together several times during te year to discuss problems. Before the meeting was brought. to a close all the members pre- sent stood at attention and observ- ed a one-minute silence in memory of the late Right Honourable Lord Baden-Powell, Chief Scout, who passed away recently. Judge Palmer presided at the meeting. PRESIDENT'S REPORT Mr. Commis loner and Members of the Provincial Council. Events of the pass year have made 1t a very memorable one in the annals of scouting in our Pro- vince us well as the larger spheres. The War has affected our move- ment very directly in two ways. First. A continuing number of our young leaders and executives are going ‘mio active military service. We are proud of such sccuierr; and scouts and we would not have it. otherwise, But they are greatly missed in 0111‘ scouting activities and as their numbers grow it. ls increasingly hard to fill their places. Then the financial strain due to nece ssry and voluntary contribu- tions of our people to the various war services has served to dimin- ish our sources of revenue con- siderably. Notwithstanding these difficulties the thought. that during the war scouting should be abandoned is not. and must not. be con idered for a minute. With so many of the par- ents, older brothers, teachers and other natural youth leaders gone into military service the need of maintaining such a character build- ing movement as scouting for our boys is greater than ever. Ile- mcmbering then that u scout smiles and whistles under all difficulties if. behooves us still to carry on so that. our boys may be trained and equipped to meet life's ,, “ as true scouts when victory has crown- od our amis The first. major activity of the year was our "Carry On" financial Campaign of last February and March-the lint. one we had had for five years. Considering the heavy demands on our citizens all during the past year the response to our campaign was very satisfac- tory indeed. We netted appmxim- ately $2600.00 in that campaiim- Such success was largely due w the splendid campaign organization composed of friends of our move- ment headed by Walter S. Grant, assisted bv John E. Stems, and the generosity of our contributors, no all of whcm our thanks are due. Included in those contributors were The Guardian. The Patriot, and the Island Radio Station, who by their generous treatment of us tn advertising helped materially in keepin down the expenses of tho Campa gn. The Guardian gave us $150 in advertising by far the high- est single contribution of the crun- Chlcf Scout of Province We were eased in January in have our Ch ef Scout for the Prov- ince His Honour lieutenant-Gov- ernor IicPage formally inveted as a Scout. His Honour very EPW1- ously welcomed the members of the Provincial Executive in Govern- ment. House for the invest/ill!!!- In Fxbniary we were shocked at the death, after only a short ill- ness. of our Chief Scout and Gov- ernoc-Gencral for Twcedomuir. Iiord Twcodmiuir was IJIWIYS o. real and practical frfend of lcuu and his Dill!!! W!‘ l verv difinite loss to our oriwffllfl- tion. Your executive sent s. wire of Y -way, he added. Evidence has accepted the position of Chief Scout. for Canada. He ls no stranger to the movement and his leadership should be a great source of ztmngi-h m‘lC0llfilI¢ during his stay in Can- Among lbs members lost from our Executive by removal from the Province in 1940 were Father Flem- 1118 of fihe Holy Redeeme parish. Cfmrlottctown, Assistant Provincial Commiésseione; Mcgagiarufiuur Hon- 01113! cm ry. . . s, and fin ly our executive field com- missioner Capt. E. I. H. Inga. These men had all given us their active suPiXm. and we were indeed sorry to lose them. Assistant P. C. Mclaggan was a bower of strength to us in Kings County for a num- bers of years and we felt it only fitiln to make a presentation to him rom the Association on the eve of his departure. Capt. Ings had established himself to scouters and scouts alike as an able and popular executive and he will be greatly missed We were pleased that, through our Elxecutive Council he was the recipient of a. Medal of Merit awarded him for ten years volunteer service to Scouting in the Province of Alberta. Particulars will be given you by the Provincial Commissioner of our annual Apple Day activities held on November 2. The scouts and cubs went enthusiasticaly and cheerfuly about their sales and were every- where well received. The usual fin- ancial returns were augmented this year by the proceeds of a Mock which alone resulted in over $250.00. Just on the tlhre ihold of our new year scouts the world over were saddened by the death of our belov- ed leader and founder Lord Baden- Poweli. B. P. as he is affectionate- ly known to all scouts remained an active and interested Scouter T121115 to the end. The remarkable extension of our movement -—before the word Totalitariari came into use —had long ago established Baden- Powell as a world figure. We latclv had realized from his long and ac- tive life that the end of his journey must. be in sight but when we did receive the word that he had "gone home" it, came a.- a distinct shock and left, us each with a great sense of personal loss. His place can never be completely; filled but the Boy Scout movement uiill go on as a. lying monument to a great chrfs- tian character who understood and loved boys. The response of the Scouts, Guides and the general public to the memorial services for B P. :hawed to a marked degree the place he held in the lives of all of us. Now to the Future And now as to the future: Tire work which B. P gave his life to must go on. But ii. can only go on as a living organism wiren we have scouts engaged in scouting. Tn achieve that we must have scout; masters-men and women who are willing to devote a. little time once a week to enable our boys to have the benefit of scouting as v1 lone/l by the Founder. Thai is the press- ing need now. So far as the Provincial Organiza- Lion is concerned we are fortunate In having prominent citizens give of their time and talvnts to do the necessary work. We must however give serious attention to our fin- ancial out-look It. will be apparent to the incoming executive that it is not. feasible to have another fin- ancial campaign in the definite fu- ture. It would bi- well therefore to explore the pos iblllties offered by associate membership such as we had iin former years. Probably for the duration we shall have to depend on associate membership dues, apply day returns, and registration fees. as our only dependable source: of income. A resolute tapping of these sources shculd give us s. substantial if com- paratively small income. Willi the growing assistance of volunicer workers for the executive duties i1. should not then be difficult to burl- get our neces ary expenses to keep WfihlH our income and yet. adequ- ately serve all our scouts and cubs through the province. In closing I should like to thank the officers of our Council for fill- ing their respective roles capably and cheerfully. also the members of the Executive for their co-opera- tlon and effective help in promot- ing good scouting during the past year.

I'll-st Witness Called Valerius McDonald, Charlotte- town surveyor and engineer with the Department of Highways msii- fied that he had made a survey of the double fzenem Hi house 217-219 Fitzroy Street. This had been done December 12, 1940 and was ac- companied by Constable Augustus Dowling. (The plan was then introduced info iihc court and placed in view). Witness pointed out: the various markings on this plan which repre- sented the hou c, gangway- street, etc. I-Ie pointed out the kitchen and other rooms in the house in tion to Fitzroy Street. M urernenfs Taken Horn the centre the back door to the south west corner of the house was measured and found to be six feat i8 inches. If. was 89 feet fmm this same corner to Wey- mouth Street. From the corner of the house to a tree on the 0p- posite slde of the street was I01 feel. he said. This tree was 44 feet from a. nearby light pole. The street. oppolte the house is 45 feel. wide. (from examined witness said the house in question was a one and one-half storey building. He slated that. there was a front. entrance to the west tenement. The rear door of tihe house opens i-nwnrd.

Our Apple Auction held in Charlottetown " He was acquainted with the de- ceased and had performed an aniopsy on his body DI‘. Dewar had insisted and it tgok lace at Frank Hennessey‘: Panera Parlor an July 14. Autopsy s Witness iuid the body was that of a man about 40 years of age. He was a. medium sized man. Over the front of the chest there were some blood stains. In the left u _ r chest there was a wound ‘It a. t the level of the second left rib This wound was about one inch in length with sharp edges. Deicribixig the wound further he said it was an incised one. There were no other evidences of injuries on the body and the autopsy was proceeded with. The result of the findings were that. the wound in the skin was found to end in the large blood vessel (the aorta) leading from the heart. This was an artery about one inch in diameter and its function is m convey the blood to all parts of the body —it is the main artery. This was out crosswise. As a result of this wound death from hemorrhage would result to the person. In tbs cue it was in- ternal hemorrhage. The wound passed through the flesh, ribs and lower inner border of the left. rung. It had started on the left side. Length of Wound The total length of the wound was 4 1-2 to 5 Inches. witness stated. He did not mcall any other wound on the body of the de- ceased. "The cause of death was infernal hemorrhage caused by the wound in the aorta," Dr. MgcGuigan said. The heart itself was in normal condition. The wound did not. reach it; and would be about 1 1-2 or W0 inches away, he added. Witness said he knew the accused and also his wife. He had occasion to examine Mrs. Jeremiah Dou- cettes body (Counsel for defenc objected to any further questioning regarding the latter enamlnation). Mr. Johnston said he proposed to show that about iie time the wounds were inflicted on the de- ceased, about the same time wounds were also inflicted on the wife of the accused. He also would show that the same in trument could have caused the wounds in both cases Distance Varies Witness said a person could move a “variable length of time after the infliction of the wound which the deceased had received It. depended on the length of time taken to empty tie blood through the wound by the heart action. There was very little hemorrhage from the enterior wound. In answer to Mr. Justice Saund- ers, witness said the distance travelled would indicate the time re- quired to pump the blood through the aorta thus draining the brain of its blood supply. A man could possibly go from a few feel: to 100 ysrd=. TITS person would be con- scious but suffering from shock. Cross examined by Mr. Bell, wit- ness indicated the position of the wound on the chest. It was started inwards and downwards. The wound could be self inflicted or possibly by a man falling on a Wham" instrument, he said. J Associated in Autopsy Dr. G F. Dewar, Charlottetown physician and surgeon testified that ire had been associated with Dr. MacGuigan when an autopsy was performed on the body of the deceased He corroborated the evidence of the former witness as to the find- ings of the autopsy. _ Tize man was 5 feet. 7 inches high and 47 lCl-lb of age. he added. A person might move a certain number of yards before falling. he said. Cross examined witness said the wound in the skin would be about. thr .~ quarters of an inch in length. He would not say the wound could bcblself inflicted -it might be poa- si e. Alan McKinnon. now in the army but fomierly of Gaytown. o. section of the city, testified that he was acquainted with the accused and had also known the deceased. iviincss told of Jeremiah Doucette coming to his home at 8.50 p. in.

Met Isidore They went as far ls McQufll-‘l’! service station on the Malpeque Road where they saw Isldorefi» car. They vivcnt over and talked‘ to him and walled until the car was fin- ished.

Witness expected them to come back but in the meantime decided it. was late and told his wife to say they had u fight and he had left. They came back but did not get in. They did not come back any more as he imagined he would have heard em. Miss Marv A. Malone, Charlotte- town, testified that she lived at 217 Fitzroy Street. Jeremiah Dou- cettc had lived in the other part of the house at the time of the trouble.

Later Jeremiah and the other man came back in the car. The other man was wearing a gray suit. They could not get into Mr. McKinnon’s house this time. Witness was sitting u in her bed- room. Lalcr, about 1 5, they made another trip back, but. could not get in this time either. To Mr. 'I‘rainor, she said the man with the grey suit could walk "as well as you or I could."
