Thurman is more than a great preacher, he is an apostle of the Faith, Hear him, Arrive, early. See the Bible A former Exeter district man received a $1.09 fine in magis- trate's court here Tuesday for failing to remain at the scene of art accident which -took place July 24 on itighwoy 4 about half A mile north of Exeter. Magistrate Glenn Days levied. the penalty against John Boyd, London, who was living with his parents at BR 3 Exeter at the time of the accident, and he also suspended Boyd's driver's. licence for a four-month period. Conviction of a .hit-and-run of- fence brings an automatic three- month suspension. Magistrate Hays told Boyd in handing down his 'sentence: "This is a flagrant action and. if it were not for the actions of the defendant in phoning his friend afterwards, .b elated though, it may be, I would have no other disposition but to im- pose a jail term," Strikes vehicle Norm an Peter s, Stratford, told the magistrate that he had been proceeding north on High- way 4 on the night of the acct.- dent and when he was about a half mile north of Exeter he pulled out to pass a light blue pickup truck. Peters, the first Crown wit- ness, then said, that he was forced to step up his speed In passing the truck because it seemed to him that the truck being passed had also acceler- ated. Peters related: "I managed to get back into my own lane and a second later I noticed a truck passing me on. the left. I thought at the time that it was the same one that I had just passed. I stepped on the brakes to let the truck in and when it cut back in it struck the left front fender of my vehicle," The witness then told the court that his car had rolled over in the ditch, coming to rest on its roof, When he freed himself, a fire had started in the engine and he immediately got a fire extinguisher out of the truck to fight the blaze. He reported that he saw the truck that had hit him driving down the ditch on the right- hand side of the road but he did not recognize the vehicle and wasn't sure of its identifi- cation, Received phone call Peters then narrated to the court the substance of a phone call he had received from Boyd about an hour after the inci- dent after he had arrived at his parents' home in Hensall, Peters indicated that Boyd had opened the conversation with: "Did you get home all right?" Peters replied: "Yes, why?" Boyd: 'I think I had an acci- dent down near Exeter. I think I ran off the road." Peters: "I had an accident down near Exeter too. A truck sideswiped me and rolled me over, It may have been your vehicle," "It might have been, come up and see." When questioned by Crown At- torney W. G. Cochrane, Peters told the court that he and Boyd had been friends for a good many years and he recognized Boyd's voice on the phone, Peters stated that when Boyd did arrive the two men looked at both trucks and Boyd said: "We should go down to the pol- ice station in. Exeter," While driving from Hensall to Exeter Boyd had questioned him about the accident and Peters said that Boyd, had told him: "I don't even reinember hitting you. I have recollections of run- ning through the ditch but I don't know how I could have hit you." Constable testifies OPP Constable Cecil Gibbons, the investigating office r, brought to court a portion of the left front tender of the dam- aged Peters' vehicle and indi4 cated that the green paint marks on the metal were the, same colour as the paint on the Boyd vehicle. The officer also produced a hub cap which he had found at the scene and which was situ. ilar to the type used on the make of the truck driven bY the defendant. Gibbons also read to the court a statement Which he had taken from Boyd the night of the aecident in which Boyd had stated that he 1'We-tottered "swaying a bit and feeling a bump" when he -passed the. Pe- ters' truck but that "the -next: thing I remember was being at home". Boyd takes stand Amnesia plea fails, L• - driver ,00 • • hold because the defendant did, not realize what he was dong. Mr. Bell told the magistrate "All the .evidence here indi- cates that the accused did not leave -the scene ,of the acc ident with intent to escape civil or criminal liability." Hays' remarks In handing down his sentence, Magistrate hays said: "T his is a serious accident, The Peters' vehicle upset .and his actions indicated that he is a very alert and responsible young man, lie impressed me as a very responsible witness," Magistrate hays also stated that he thought Boyd. knew what he was doing the evening of the accident because of his later conversation with Peters in which he bad asked whether Peters had arrived home safe- ly. "My conclusion from the evi, dence, and I trust it is not a matter of goessing. but rather of logical deduction, is that 'the ac- cused very well knew that he struck Peters' vehicle and, aware of the civil and criminal. liability that attended his being charged with the action, pan- icked and drove home to do no other but to escape." The magistrate indicated that he was guided both by the se- rious nature of the accident and also the fact that Boyd had later felt remorse and phoned his friend, in levying the $100 fine against the defendant, Loses licence A Hensall man also lost his licence for a six-month period in court Tuesday when he was convicted of impaired driving as the result of an accident Aug- ust 5 in Hensall. Alden Vanstone, Bensall, re- ceived fines and costs totalling $98 as well, as losing his licence for half a- year after being found guilty of the charge laid when he struck a parked car head on after crossing over to the wrong side of the road. The car, which was owned by Ralph Linen, was parked on the right-hand side of the road in front of the Linstra house. Vanstone, rounding a curve, struck the car in the front. Alexander Turner, Hamilton, said that he noticed the Van- stone vehicle before it had rounded the curve and it was weaving from side to side. La- ter, at the scene of the acci- dent, Turner testified that he smelled alcohol on Vanstone's breath. Hensall police chief Ernie Davis and OPP Constable George Mitchell also testified • i• that the defendant "smelled of alcohol, that be walked Unstead- ily, and his eyes were red. rimmed and bloodshot." Vanstone, in conducting his own defence, Indicated to the magistrate that the reason for his striking the other car on '[lie wrong side of the street was because lie had reached to pick up a pup which had slid off the seat and he didn't get the ear completely straightened out again. However, Vanstone did admit that he had been drinking that morning and the previous af- ternoon and evening but he said that the reason for his actions at the lima was that he had struck a plate in the side of his head in the impact. however, Magistrate If a y s said: "In my mind I think that if you hadn't had the beer, you wouldn't have hit the other ear. Suppose the pup did slide off the seat. It wasn't an emer- gency was it?" "I have tried to look at this as fairly as possible but by your description 1 can't conic to any conclusion than that you were impaired." In lieu of the heavy court costs of $48 the magistrate im- posed the lightest possible fine of $50 on Vanstone• and his li- cence was revoked for an auto- matic six-month period. Three careless drivers Magistrate Hays also heard three careless driving charges during the lengthy court ses- sions and Crown Attorney Coch- rane won convictions on them all. Claude Blanehete, RCAF Sta- tion Clinton, was fined $30 and costs from a charge that re- sulted from a collision on the main Street of Exeter, Greg Willert, Zurich, was fined $15 after being in a one- car accident on Highway 4 north of Exeter, He had just obtained his beginners permit and was driving home when the accident occurred. David Stanley Hunt, RCAF Centralia, was found guilty of careless driving and of having beer :n a place other than his residence. The two fines and costs totalled $50, Gerald Latta, London, was also :ound guilty to having beer it a place other than his residence and received a fine of $25, Si speeding charges A total of 68 charges went 'through the court according to OPP Constable Gibbons and 51. of these were for speeding, mostly on the Civic Holiday weekend. Only 17 cases were heard in court as the majority of the driving tickets had been settled out of court. Magistrate Hays assessed fines and costs of over $200 on the charges. Paul David Frank, 16,year- old farm worker, has been sen- tenced to life imprisonment over the murder of Clandehove farmer, Cecil George Carter, June 26. A supreme court trial jury in. London deliberated for just over three hours last week be- fore returning a verdict of not guilty on a capital charge but guilty on the reduced charge of non.capital murder with a recommendation for leniency. The victim, Cecil 0, Carter, 60, died in London hosPital from severe head injuries after' being found by his wife, com- pletely covered by hay, in the areaba;,nrankof st oftlathefraorym . was ap- prehended in Exeter, the same day of the heating, after a short chase through properties at the south end of town. Frank testified he was em- played as a farm hand by Car- ter and was paid $3 a week for about 14 hours work a day. He said he was working in Carter's barn. June 26 when the farmer began to criticize him for not throwing straw far en'o`Tughile're was a piece of pipe by the shed," Frank told the court. "I took the pipe to the barn with me. Ile seemed to cool down so I threw it in the hay," But, Frank testified, Carter began to criticize him for the way he threw a pitch fork on the ground, "My temper started to come back again," said Frank. "And that's when I hit him, sir, with the piece of pipe that was shown as evidence." Frank said he struck Carter once hut the farmer started to get up. "I got scared so I hit him again," the youth testified, "I realized I was in serious trou- ble, so I took his money and ran away." Heard police radio Frank said he then went into the Carter house, washed up, and cut the telephone wires be- fore starting out to look for a car to get away from the area. Be said he first believed Car- ter was dead when he heard over the police radio after his arrest that "it was a more se• rious charge than assault." He said he was told of Car- ter's death when he was in- formed by Provincial Police in London that a capital murder charge would be laid, Defence lawyer W, R. Poole, QC, argued that Frank took Carter's wallet and money not as part of a plot to rob the dis- trict farmer, but to be used so the accused could get away from the scene, He said there was no evidence to indicate Frank bad committed murder in the course of robbery under which a capital murder charge could be upheld. Mr. Poole said there was an interval between the time when. Frank struck the blows and took the wallet, indicating there had been no intent to commit robbery. Found beneath hay The widow of Carter testified of finding her husband beneath some hay on their farm June 26, and of her failure to seek immediate assistance because of a cut telephone wire, Mrs. Mary Eileen. Carter said that shortly after Frank left the house before noon, "... something told me something was wrong, and I left the house to look for my husband." She said she searched the barn area twice and on the second occasion heard a noise And went around to the east door, from where she saw hay moving up and down between. a granary and the barn, "I pulled the hay back he was completely covered," she said. Mr. Carter, shr said, was face dawn and showed nn move- ment apart from the 'breathing which had attracted her attn. tion, Mrs. Carter said Frank came into the house about 11:30 a.m., and said: "My that's Met-looking pie," She said he mentioned s t i n g Was wrong with the harvester, and that "they were going to have to go to London for parts." she said he washed his bands at the kitchen sink, went up- stairs, returned to the kitchen carrvifig a large brown wallet in his nocket, and went out to. ward Clandeboye Sidernad.
