THE ARsON CASE. -DEAR EXPOSITOR,
-Allow us in the columns of your val-
uable paper to contradict a statement
which appeared in the Bluevale items of
the Brussels Post regarding the Jackson
vs. Saugeen Mutual Fire Insurance
Company case. Thos. Jackson, son of
A. Jackson, of Bluevale, was arrested
and brought before Robert Miller, J. P.,
of Wroxeter, on Wednesday last, on a
charge of arson, preferred by the San -
pen Mutual Fire Insurance Company.
In the first place, he says "A young man
working for Jackson, sr." - Allow us to
say it was not a young man, but an in-
nocent boy, abaut 16 years of age, named
Herbert Lightle'who was appreached
by Thomas Jackson, according to evi-
dence, and induced by the paltry con-
sideration of $3 to assist him to bum
an empty house in Gorrie owned by
Jackson, sr., and insured in- the said
company for $300; prevailing on the boy
that the house would not sell for more
than $200 and if burned a mild realize
$300, in which he would participate in
$100. After arriving on the spot, and
Jackson, jr., applying the coal oil by his
awn hand, urged the boy to strike the
fatal match, which was refused, he
struck the match and handed it to the
boy, saying "The property is our own;
we can do as we please. In the second
place, he says the line of defence went
to show that the Lightles and Jacksons
had long been at feud, and the inference
drawn was that the whole story was
concocted, more especially an there was
plenty of evidence to prove that at the
hour of the fire on the 8th of July young
Jackson was at home with his mother
and sisters. Allow us to say, no sach
inference was drawn, as the straight-
forward evidence given by the boy and
uncontradicted convinced all present,
who were open to conviction, that the
prisoner was guilty and deserved the
punishment that Was infliCted ; and, in
reference to the feud that existed be-
tween the Lightles and Jacksons,
the former certifies, that no
ill -feeling exists whatever on his
part. It was considered by all present
that the house was burned purely for
the insurance, and it would be very poor
policy for the boy to -criminate himself
to implicate young Jackson through any
spite, if there was such. He further
states that the trial lasted from 5 p. m.
until 1 a. m., and the facts are -that the
court was dismissed at 11.30 p. in. In
reference to more light on the subject,
there was sufficient to convict the pris-
oner, and convince 99 per cent. of the
audience present that Jackson, jr., was
the guilty party.-WATeliaTAN.

_ THRESHING, EXTRAOPeDINARY.-EDITOR
arosieon.,-In your last issue I no-
ticed a communication from Stanley
stating that Messrs. Harvey_ & Wiley
were on the war path, a,nd were doing
what they considered surprisingly tall
work. Your correspondent gave the
number of acres threshed in a day at
different places, but was careful not to
give the number of bushels threshed in
either of_ the places. He also thinks
-alessi's. Harvey & Wiley have the best
outfit of the season. He evidently has
not heard of the prodigious feats of
Itiessrs. Berry & Swin.erton in the
threshing line, or he would forever after
hold hia peace. Take one of the many
examples of their day's work, and we
find that last week they threshed for
Mr. Frank Coleman 1,200 bushels of
wheat in eleven hours. And if the
number of acres a day is any test of a
big day's work, we may also mention
that a short time ago they started at
Mrs. Ferguson's in the morning, and at
noon they moved. to Mr. Ed. Troyer's, a
distance of two miles, threshing in all
40 acres the same day. Seeing is be-
lieving, and when the farmers see
Messrs. Berry & Swinerton's machine in
operation they conclude that it is sec-
ond to none in the county, and that no
other machine will thresh for them pro-
' vi.ded it can be obtained. -P. H.
