Parkhill,
----
Rie-AlutisSTED--The recent change
in the statute, which allows a prisoner
charstecl with a felony to give evid-
ence on his own behalf, has been the
indirect cause of getting Sohn Grant,
the Parkhill express office robber, into
further trouble. It will be remember-
ed. that at the last spring assizes Grant
was accused of stealing a valuable pack-
age from the .safe of the Express (Joni-
pany at the Grand Trunk Depot, Park-
hill. He went into the witness box
on his own behalf, and swore that he
had not been guilty of safe breaking.
He admitted taking the package, but
claimed he got it on top oE a truck on
the platform and pleaded as an excuse
that he was drunk. The trial judge
appeared to place considerable .weight
on Grant's evidence, judging from the
lightness of the sentence he imposed.
On Saturday Grant's sentenee expired,
and he was released from the Central
Prison, but had. hardly got Outside of
the tail evalls before he was re -arrested
by Detective Verney, of ' the ,Toronto
staff, on the charge of perjury, in giv-
ing evidence on his OWIl behalf.
