Men Charged With
Theft of ;700
Caswell Hackett, Lucknow, and
John Sproul, Goderich, were joint-
ly charged in weekly court last
Thursday with breaking, entering
and theft of $700 at the home of
Joseph Bowler, West Wawanoshi.
After a preliminary hearing, they
were committed for trial at the
next general sessions of the Peace
in June by Magistrate D. E.
Holmes, Q.C.
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.
Week -End in Goderich
He spent the week -end in Gode-
rich and on Monday morning saw
a tool mark on the door and the
steeple of the padlock had been
drawn. The box inside the trunk
was gone. He met Hackett, Sproul
and Mrs- .Margaret Kelly at Jack
Smith's, he said.
To Frank Donnelly, Q.C., the
witness said there were no marks
of identification on any of the
bills.
Other evidence was that Hackett,
Mrs. Kelly, John Smith and Bowler
went to Stratford in Hackett's car.
Hackett had given Smith three $10
bills; one a large one. Smith
passed the bills in Stratford stores
and . two others received from
Hackett, were picked up by the
police.
New Issue in 1935
It was shown in evidence that
chartered bank bills were taken
out of circulation after Bank of
Canada issues in 1935.
Hackett and Sproul were also
charged separately with the of-
fence and elected trial by a higher
court. ,
Bail for Sproul was set at $2,000
cash, and $4,000 property; and for
Hackett, $5,000 property and $3,000
cash.

ago that a clipper called "The
Dreadnqught" which was skippered
by a Captain John Samuels tried-

did it but steam at last got too
fast for him.

bott, died ten years ago. Surviv-
ing are two sons, John, jr., at home
who assisted his father with the
making of the ship models; Neil,
of Toronto; two daughters, Mrs. J.
E. Cameron of Bayfield; Mrs. L.
W. Pullen, of Los Angeles; one
brother, Neil, Goderich, four grand-
children and one great-grandchild.

with amilllonmiles behind it
HEREin literal fact, is the most
,
.advanced V8 engine ever
placed in a standard -production
automobile.
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.
Nothing, we believe, will do more
justice to your automobile dollars --
or to your love of magnificent motor-
ing—than a -visit to us right now.
