Secretary of Northumberland Ferries Limited was back on the witness stand for further cross-ex- amination. Mr. Pogo was not fin- ished cross-examining this witness when Court sdjoumed Wednesday. The book value of the “Seaborne" was $92,545.37 as of December 31. 1040.witness said the original cost was 375.500. maintenance was $9.- 514.l8 and expenses were $7531.19. he added. There were adjustments made from time to time but that was the figure shown on the bei- ance sheet when witness took over the duties of secretary. Mr. Fbgo asked witness if he could get the pro-forum. bakmce sheet up till Dec- ember 31. 1939. Witness said could. Witness also promised to get the amount cf the insurance on both the “Seabome" and "Sankaty." In i941 the ferrv operated from Mav 27 to the 15th day of Dec. ember. witness said. He promised to produce the record showing this. He could also get the number of cars. trucks and passengers carried for- the year. The total revenue of company in 194i was $49,205.68 witness said. ‘That was the gross revenue. This included 528.000 subsidy. The operating expenses for the same time were $49.290.87. Ask- ed lf the rate of rental received from the Crown for the "Seabome" was $1200. witness said he did not know. Nor did he know the rental paid for the "Sankaty." Witness told Mr. Pogo that the company had out out a prospectus and he vroillrl produce this and also an application for registration of securities in Nova scotia. ‘Mr. B. l. Match R. E. Mutch. Charlottetown. Pre- sident of Northumbcrland Ferries. Limited. testified that he he'd gm; Wsitlon since the control of the cvmpflny came to Prince Edward Island. He confirmed the contract the company had made with the Dom- inion Government and the $28,000 subsidy. Witness said the “Seahome”, re- christened the “Charles A. Dunn. lug”, was the first boat procured. Th" 001119311? had some preliminary work done on the boat but no structural work as the Government Wqlllsltloned the boat. The notice of requisition was received on Sept- ember 4, 1939 Following this representation was made to the Department of Trans. Dortation. These were made by letter and visits to Qctawg, The boat was later released to the com- pany but no alterations were per- mitted to be made. Step3 were 9.3km l0 813i? a substitute drip. The "Dun- ulna was again requisitioncd on December 2, witness said. After the second requisitionlng the company succeed ‘ in securing the 8.8. "Sankaty" from the New Eng- land States. It was purchased for a trifle. The boat had to go into a port on the way to Halifax for re. Pairs» At the latter port arrange- ments were made with the Halifax Ship Yards to refit her. There was a lot of work to be done on the hull and machinery. Boat Well Suited Witness saw the boat which was one well suited for the purpose. she had a carrying capacity for 30 cars on the main deck and the company contemplated opening the lower deck for a reserve. She had good overhead space capable of permitt- ing the majority of trucks to go right to the bow. Witness said he never saw a strip with the equipment of the "Dun- ning" in respect to furniture and fittings. One of the four launches was made of mahogany. The plans for rs-modelllng culled for the carrying of 30 cars on the boat. The "Charles A. Dunning" or "Sesborne" cost was more than hncl been previously shovm. When the company took over from the Nova Scotia company there were addi- <0 w tional expenses of $0,000 or $7.000. Mr. MacDonald's travelling expen- ses in connection with examining boats were in excess of $7.000. Mr. llbgo objected to this evidence stating that witness should produce records to show these amounts. The Court agreed with this The oom- panyflq books were then produced and Mr. Mulch read from them shtlng there was an item of $8,855- .50 paid to Mr. W.N. MacDonald for sundry disbursements. His salary was not included in bh-fl amount. Another sum for 86.39071 was read to the Court bv Wltflol-W- Th1; was also for Mr. MacDonald. Another item ln Mr. MacDonai account was for $3,011.30, which was cent to Ca tain Dicks for being in ohlrso of boat. witness Mid. The rtnilongdvould be paid tho crew on e . The "Sanksty" was to go on the mute in May 1940 witness stated. However, the boat was not ready then. She was practically ready for the service b June 17. A schedule was arr . On June 17, how- ever, the government also requisit- ioned this boat. Arrangelnent Mad; During the summe of 1940 an arrangement was made whereby the government was to pay 858,000 and certain rentals for the “Dun- nins." witness continued. At that time there was no inti- mation whether the requisitionlng oi the Sankaty was permanent. The company tried 1o get some ad- justment because "some of us had given personal guarantees for lia- bilities incurred and we were get- ting desperate." Also the Provincial Government has! helped the com- pany. witness said. The guarantee of the Provincial Government was to enable the company to get the boat into commission“ Witness said the company did not specifically re- pudiate the $58,000 offer as far as he could recall, The matter drag- ged along for some t'me and the-n an arrangement was made effect- ing the two boats. This was in March 194i. In the meantime a third boat the "Erie Isle" (Prince Novel was offered to the 0cm- pany for $110,000, The “Red Star" had also been inspected by Mr. Tweedy and Mr. MacDonald. Mr. Allan had inspected the "Erie Isle." Mr. Jeagle was also interest- ing ifimself in gett'ng the com- panv a boat. The "F'ish=rs' Island" coirld not be bought as it could not be financed, witness stated. The “Erie Isle" was bought for $74,000.‘ witness said. She was not in condition to go 0:1 the run and the company had made expendi- tures to re-conditfon it. The ship was a steel boat, witness said, and went on to describe it further. A- part from the ‘Fishers’ Island" it was the only suitable boat for tihe DllllDflfie Carrying Capacity ‘Ihis boat carried frcm l8 to l’! cars. Three trucks carrying pro- ‘duce could be taken on it. The draft of the boat was in the vicin- ity of nine feet. Witness said this bcat was not adequate to handle the traffic. Last season tihe-re would be trips made when she would not be filled to capacity but an additional boat of equal capacity could have car- ried a full load, witness said. In the matter cif costs the up that tcok over the control rcm the Halifax concern had giv- en of their time freely and had made many trips in connection with the work. Nothing had been aid to these for ihe’r tme as here were no funds. witness said. He felt this was an obligatlm of the company and he assured them they would be paid. There was al- sg the overhead expenses, he add- e . Cross-Examination Cross-examined by Mr. Fogo, wit- ness said there were Z3 members of the grcu-p. The crm-peny has 5i shares he said. I-Ie could not re- call where he had put some sec- ond mortgage bmds and shares of the company. Explaining 0'10 trans- action. witness said. "the purpose was when we bought the boat our first mortgage bonds were not ready for issue and Miss Morrison agreed to give the boat and trust the company t'll the funds were available" Miss Morrison was not an agent of the company to the knowledge of the witness. Witness was not sure if there was a letter ordering the corn- pany not to roceed with alter- ations to e “Seabom? The "Sankat/y" was not bought until after the "Seaborn" was requisi- tfoned tihe second time. Witness said that to his lmowledge there was no agreement to purchase the "Sankaty" befcn ,ember. He had :10 information that the "Sea- born" was not suitable. Ccmmsnd- er l-Ieenan had approved tihe boat. witness stated. He could not recall a meeting in November with Commander Heen- an when the latter said the boat lacked stability and could not be converted into a ferry. Nor had he any recollect/ion of calling MI‘. John tierson of the Halifax shipyard the same day for confirmation oi this. Neither could he recall learn- ing on Nov. 8 that Mr. W. N. Mac- Donald had known for some time that the boat was not suitable and had not told him. At this point the Court took noon recess. Afternoon Seller: When Court opened in the after- noon Mr. Pogo said there were two witnesses for the Crown who were engaged in important war work and asked leave to have them heard. There would be further witnesses for the respondent. Hon. Mr. Camp- bell explalned that there was also an important witness, Mr. John Pat- terson. Halifax. who could not get. here and said that there would pro- babiy be a request to have the Court hear his evidence in Halifax. The Court agreed to hear the tion of 000.000 for the “Seabornf He saw the "Sankaty" on the some occasion. He saw her on two 000l- slona and had information about the original cost and the cost of re- pairs. Witness also got {mutations of the repairs. Prom he for moisten an opinion as to the valu- ation which be placed at 868.00) Io: the "Sankaty." In the case of this boat if there has. been no war there would have been no "Sankaty," no id. “His figure he considered a fair valuation without taking lntc con- sideration anything about the war. Cross-examined Cross examined by Hon. m. Campbell, witness said he used a scale of depreciation per annum when arriving at a valuation. This depreciation was from five to seven per cent per annum. The "Seabom" was in “very, very good condition," he stated. It indi- cated very good care had been tak- en of the ship. He placed her in the category of s yacht and valued it accordingly. ‘The original cost of the "Sea- born" was £52,500. witness stated. He knew nothing of any recon- struction whereby 17 feet were added and did not know if this was included in the first cost. The value of yachts fluctuate greatly, he said. l-le termed a yacht "a rich man's toy" which may be bought for more than it is worth. The value he gave was very close to the market value, witness said. The $60,000 was the price Witness would pay for the ship if he were buying her. This was before lhe outbreak of war. The engines of the "Seaborn" were much older than tihe shin. he said- It is common practice to give a ship a depreciation of five per cent per annum for 2) years. The original cost of the "Sankaty" was $4.950 To that, would be added the expense of reconditioning her but not the cost of bringing her to "~lifax. The cost of reconditioning this ship was $54,276 to the owners. This was a figure from the Halifax Ship- yards. There was one week's work not included in this amount. There were also carpenter's expenses and sundries taken into consideration. He allowed $100 a dead weight ton in valuing the "Sankaty“. This worked out to $08,000. Witness stated in regard to the replacement value of that ship that it would be impossible to build it at present. It would be difficult to secure a substitute ship of the nec- essary specifications. he agreed. He qualified this by saying he had not sgarched the country for such a s o. After hearing a description of the "Fisher's Island" he agreed it sound- ed like a ‘nice Ship" and appeared to be a reasonable ship to replace the "Sankaty." He did not kn w anything about the “Erie Is.e" (Prince Nova). To Mr. FogO— "A very substantial sum was spent on the Sankaiy" after it was taken over and before he saw it. Hon. Mr, Campbell objected to this question. This was ordered scratched from the record and al- so a questlcn by Mr. Campbell which asked witness if the boat was fulfilling her purpose.

There's no with that company 13 years and carried on work in England and Canada dealing with ships. Prior to that he was an engineer and sailed for 10 years. Witness said his work was prin- cipally the surveytig of ships. I-le had surveyed both the "Seaborn" and “Ssnketyfl Rflfefflllk to the "Seaborn" he said he made a general survey of her in December 194i and valued her. He had access to infcrmation at his office. The value of the "Seaborn" he arrived at was $76,500 -a depreciated value, and $00,000 as a market value. He also saw the "Sankaty" and valued it at 566.000 without any depreciation due to war. There would be a weak market for inc "Seaborn" type in 1930 because of world conditions. Witness stated tihe usual practice for appraising was to allow a five per cent depreciation on a ship. Cress-examined Hon. Mr. Campbell. witness stated he had not. consulted with Mr. Fletcher in arriving at the figure. He ex- plained how he arrived at the igure given for the “Sarnkat/y." He agreed that it would be difficult to replace the ship. e “Fishers Island" seemed like a good substitute frcm the de- scription given. I-Ie said the "San- katy" was in an "efficient. condi- tion" when he saw her. Ml’. R. l. Mulch Mr. R. E. Mutch was then call- ed to the witness stand for ccntin- uanoe of cross-examination. l-Ie thought Mr. W. N. MacDonald had been voted $1,000 for a salary and also got his expenses. The account given in the morning would not all be expenses but also some disburse- menls. "Dunning" was req tioned on December 3 and the "Sankatv" was purchased on Dec. Crown witnesses then and the first 19 was called. Mr. W. I‘. Fletcher Mr. William 1". Fletcher, consult- ing engineer, engaged as technical director to the Minister of War Transport for the United Kingdom, said he had been doing business in Montreal for over 30 years. He was also a naval architect and ship ap- praiser for brokers. In the course of hi; work he co.- amines ships every day and on many occasions appraised vessels. ‘Mess said. He told of appraising the ships concerned in this case. He visited Halifax and saw the "Seaborn" and inspected her. He made subsequent surveys at a later date. He had sc- cess to all the information possible in regard to the ship and saw one reports of the Canadian Steamship Inspector. Witness got the costs of the ship from the builders in Scot- land and also the cost as she was altered in the United States in 1038. From this he arrived at a valu- (Mr. Fogo said this was not cor- rect and that the seccnd boat had been bought a month before. He was prepared to produce a w.tnese to prove this if necessary.)

Keenan to the secretary of the ccmpany dated November 17. 1939. It had reference to the matter of the pin-chase of the "Snnkaty." Witness said it certainly was not. financed on that dale. It was only an option and he did _ not know when the aPDTOV-ll Was Elven- Mr. MacDonald‘ had est-mated re- pairs on the ship would cost $15,000. Witness could not recall being told that if the proposed super- structure were placed cn the "Ssaborne" it. would float ilDSid€ down. He was familiar with an offer of $71,000 made by Mr. MacDonald to Commander Roy after the second boat was requisitioned. Th‘; would be "a very substant a1 icss" for the "Seabarn." he stated. "It would not begin to let us out and our letter to the government stated that," he said. He denied the suggestion that the company had been ‘generous- treatcd" and slid "we are only locking for fair play." _ To Mr. Camorell-"Durang the course of the transactions I had been in hospital in Montreal and here." witness said.
