Joseph Bowler, under examin- ation by Crown Attorney Hays, stated that he lived alone as his mother had been in hospital for a year. He missed the money on February 23. It was in a back upstairs room in a locked tool chest in his mother's trunk. He last saw the money, approximately $700 on February 19. It was in bills of denomination from one to 20 dollars. Among there were four $20 American bills which he had ,for 30 years; six wider' and longer old $10 bills issued by the Bank of Montreal, which he had 10 years and six $10 Bank of Com- merce bills.

It is the first such V8 to reach an 8.5 to 1 compression ratio, and the first with- a dynamic flow - muffler that cuts' power loss to zero. It is the first V8 to utilize vertical valves together with a 12 -volt electrical system instead of the usual 6. It is also the first designed with new "T" type intake manifold to replace the "Y" type conventionally used in•V8s. h is, quite simply, the first V8 Fire- ball Engine—the engine that' brings electrifying performance to the greatest Buicks in fifty great years --e the engine that powers the 1953 Buick Roadmaster with 188 hp, and the 1953 Buick Super with up to 170. Naturally, this spectacular new V8 has been proved—by eight years of developing, testing, improving, perfecting—and more than a million miles of driving through desert, mountains, cities and plains. Only then did Buick engineers mark it: Released for. production. But these hard -to -please engineers gave these Golden. Anniversary Buicks far more than new power. They gave them, too, a still finer ride, more superb comfort, - dew braking power and handling ease—and a sen- sational new Twin -Turbine Dynaflow Drive* that adds new quiet and whip - fast getaway to absolute smoothness.
