One fall, having stored a\nquantity sufficient for home use, he\nthought he could afford to sell a ton\nin New Westminster. There was no\nsale for them at home. Potatoes\nwere the commodity which every\nsettler hid abundance. Accordingly\nhe got his potatoes sacked and loaded on his sleigh the previous after-\nday.

And if $15,\nwith the high cost of living, would\n\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDt go far now, it would not go a\nrther but a shorter distance then.\nThe great difficulty then for a man\nwithout money was the difficulty of\nobtaining employment. 1 mean remunerative employment. Few, if\nany, could afford to hire a mun even\nat a dollar a day.\n\"On coming to Langley he settled\non a bush claim adjoining the eastern boundary of the Hudson Bay\nCompany's farm. Of course, there\nwas no house on it, nor a foot of\ncleared land. At once he proceeded\nto build a small house of split cedar\nand cedar poles. Furniture be could\nnot alford to buy. lt wa.s therefore\nnecessary to make certain articles of\nfurniture which, as I remember,\nwere plain enough and homely\nenough.\n\"After lie had been here for about\na year 1 went one evening to baptise\nhis first child, Samuel. When I got\nthere he and Mrs. Larmon were at\ntheir evening meal, which consisted\nof potatoes and. 1 think, milk. 1\nsaw no bread, no butter, no tea.\nBlessed with uninterrupted good\nhealth he worked steadily on, gathering around him some stock, pigs,\nhens nnd a cow.\n\"Of all things, he dreaded debt,\nand fought hard and successfully to\nkeep clear of it. Deeming store\nprovisions not really necessary to a\nsubstantial, wholesome diet, and living mainly 1111 the produce of their\nland, his store hill was always light,\nand never contracted till tbey could\nsec their way clear to pay it. But\nwithout going further into details\nupon that matter, let me say, he\nstruggled on and up, assisted in the\ncourse of time by bis family, clearing and Improving land, erecting a\nnew, commodious dwelling and out-\nhouses, until in 18li5 he sent us,\nthen living at Whonnock. an Invitation to come down on n certain day\nand visit tbem, arranging to meet us\nut Fort Langley. . We went, and\ncult enough to cross with an empty\nsleigh. At different points he was\nobliged to partially unload, and\npack the sacks a distance till firm\ngTound was reached, then return for\nhis team and reload. So exhausting\nand disspiriting was the work that\nat times he thought the Westminster\nend of the road he would never see.\nHow often be thought of the splendid roads around Belfast, which he\nhad left only a few years, I cannot\ntell; be was not the man to spend\nmuch time In vain regrets. At tbe\n\"long last\" Brown's Landing was\nreached, both man and beasts being\nthoroughly fagged out. The first\nthing to be done was to find a boat\nto ferry his potatoes across the river\nwhich, having obtained, he managed\nto do at two trips. The next thing\nwas (and now the critical anxious\nmoment had come) to find a buyer.\nHe spent several hours in interviewing the merchants of the town as\nwell as a number of private citizens,\nwithout success, the merchants declaring that a sloop had just been\nIn from the American side with \"a\nwhole lot of potatoes.\" What was\nhe to do? He must either take them\nback home or empty them into the\nFraser-River. The former he could\nnot think of attempting, the latter,\nexpedient,, from moral considerations, he hated to do. In his perplexity he met Charlie McDbnough\non Front street, who cheerfully gave\nhim leave to store them in his cellar, volunteered to do his best to get\na buyer, and gave him a few dollars\nwith which to defray the expenses or\nthe trip. His heart sore, the kindness of McDonbugh to him in his extremity he never ofrgot. The experience of Larmon was the experience\nof many, both on the Langley and\nMaple Rldge sides of the river.\nOne night in the winter of '76-\n'77, there was in the Larmon home\na -erious case of illness, where a\nphysician's skill was deemed essential at the earliest possible moment.\nIn those days there was no physician outside New Westminster, and\nNew Went mi nster was 21 miles distant. .Mr. Larmon seized his coat\nand set out. Over the worst kind\nOi road, without a lantern, he made\nfor Fort Langley, walking at his\nhighest rate of speed, and running\nwhenever possible. Once there, he\nsoon gained the sympathetic ear of\nHenry Wark, of the Hudson's Bay\nCompany's store.

At\nthe northerly end one of the original bearing trees still remains. Between these points which are commonly accepted as correct, many surveys have been made and many different re-establishments of the section lines have resulted. There are\nalso several posts new and old which\nare claimed as correct in position by\nsome and which are said by others\nto have been moved when the road\nwas built. It Is however unnecessary for us lo enter upon the history of the ense, for you are already\nweil informed In regard to these\ndisputes.\n\"Two plans are being forwarded\nto you under separate cover, one\nI marked a, being a section outline\nplan on n scale of 20 chains to one\nim li. and the other marked B, being\na road plan on a scale of 2nn fee\nto one inch.

We\nthink that if the facts In regard to\nthe relative positions of these cor-\n'ners were laid before a Judicial\njmlnd, such would In all probability\nbe supported. We recognize, of\ncourse, that strong evidence would\nbe submitted to prove that the posts\nhave been moved but equally strong\nevidence can be found for the other\nside and we have felt that too much\nreliance has bpon placed upon this\ncontradictory evidence. Should you\nthe reasons for our belief that the\nposts at X and Y are at the true corners, we shall be pleased to submit\nthem.\n\"There were two courses open to\nus in establishing the centre line of\nthe Johnston road; one in which we\nwould accept the posts at X and Y,\nand the other in which we would\nadopt a straight line for the two\nand one-half miles and give each\nquarter section its aliquot part 01\nthe total distance. This latter plan\nwe have adopted in spite of our belief in the former, for the following reasons:\n\"(1). Such a line disregards entirely all intervening posts, which\nare claimed by some as having been\nmoved from their original positions\nand we have treated the posts as of\nno value because of the uncertainty\nregarding them.\n\"(2). By adopting this line we\nhave taken less Improved land from\nthe westerly side.\n\"(3). All the\" owners at one time\nagreed upon such a line and signed\nan agreement to that effect.\n\"(4). A road built upon this line\nIs of more value for road purposes\nthan one determined bv the posts at\nX and Y.\n\"We are fully aware of the opposition which our work Is sure to\narouse and we are submitting it as\nthe fairest and most reasonable\nsolution of all the trouble. It is\nuseless, we believe, to make further\nsurveys, and no other course seems\nopen In case opposition arises than\nto lay the whole matter before the\ncourts. Our recommendation is\nthat you adopt this line and carry\ntho whole matter to a termination\nof the disputes, and we can assure\nyou that, our evidence will be of\nsome value In support of your case.\"\nThis communication was received\nand on motion it was decided that\nthe centre line of the Johnston road,\nas established by Messrs. Cleveland\nand Cameron, be adopted by the\ncouncil, and that all Interested parties be Instructed to move their respective fenceB off the road limits on\nor before July 18, 1914.\nVarious accounts were passed and\nordered paid, and council adjourned to meet again Saturday, July 11,\nat 1:80 p.m., at the municipal hall,\nCloverdale.\nEBURNE SAW MILLS, LIMITED\nManufacturers and Dealers in all kinds of\nFIR, CEDAR AND SPRUCE LUMBER\nShingles, Lath, Sash, Doors, Turnings and House Finishings.\nPhone R14 Bburne.

In addition to this bail it is understood that\nthey are willing to pay the cost of\na guard large enough to make it certain that none of the Hindus would\nescape.\nA message received from Ottawa\nasserts that the Court of Appeal having upheld the validity of the Or-\nders-in-Council, the immigration department proposes that the Hindus\naffected shall now be deported without further ado. Instructions to\nthis effeet have already been sent\nto the immigration offieers at Vancouver in the event of a judgment\nfavorable to he government's contention. The despatch states: \"It\nwill be for the local officers of the\ndepartment and the owners of the\nKomagata Maru to see that the orders are carried out. ln the event\nof trouble it may be necessary to deport the Hindus in batches by different ships, but that is a matter to\nbo arranged by those on the ground.\n\"So far as the department is concerned its position is that all classes\nof labor should be kept out of British Columbia for a stated period. The\nconstitutionality of this order being\nvindicated by the courts, there\nIs nothing to do but to send hack\nhome those who have come over in\ndeliberate violation of it.\n\"Much satisfaction is expressed in\nofficial circles over the outcome of\nthe proceedings and the unanimous\nfinding of the Appellate Court as to\ntheir regularity. It is recognized\nhowever, that the question is not to\nbe settled by the disposition of this\ncase.\"\nIt is understood that an appeai\nwill go forward to the government of\nCanada for very substantial financial assistance towards the Hindus'\nreturn. It is stated that the Hindus\nnow resident in British Columbia\nare at tli\" end of their financial resources and that the passengers of\nthe Komagata Maru are in a destitute condition, A grant of $20,0(11)\nis therefore likely to be sought if it\nhas nol already been appliod for.\nThe Hindus also desired to make it\nvery clear yesterday that they came\nhero not expecting to break the laws\nof the country but with the written\nOpinion of a leading firm of Hong\nKong lawyers that they had a legal\nright to enter Canada. Their port\nof clearance was Hoi g Kong and\nthey understood that no objections\nhad been cabled to their coming by\ntlie department at Ottawa who had\nUean notified days before they sail d.\n\"G'urdit Singh and Ills passengers\ninstead Of desiring to force their\nentry Into Canada against the laws\nof Canada came here in the utmost\npood faith, believing they had a\nright to enter,\" said Mr. Bird yesterday alter being nllownd for the Iirst\ntime aboard the Koma/gata Maru.\n\"Tin's venture has cost In the neigli-\ntorhood of $75,000.\"\n>Ir.

J.\n! Gaskell & Co., of this city and Vancouver, and nn eyewitness of the\n.tragedy. Nervously, and under a\ngreat strain, Mr. Gaskell told his\nstory quietly and convincingly. The\nauto driven by Hilstrom came around\nthe curve below Btrathearn avenue\non Riverway nt a terrllic rate of\nspeed, It swerved and the brakes\nwere applied while It was still 75\n'feet from the auto in which Mr. Oas-\n'\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD*!! wns sitting. The application of\nthe brakes threw the rear of the machine Into the air and slewed It\n.1 round. It came nn down the road\nlumping and bobbing in the air at\nftn angle. Mr. Gaskell thought It was\nwoiug lo ?'rike his car and that, they\n'would all be killed He threw himself back and partly around. The\nj oncoming auto did not strike his ma-\nI chine, hut Instead threw over It a\nshower of grave] and small stones\nI torn up from the road. The car\nj passed at a rate of 86 miles or 40\nmiles an hour. Just after lt passed,\nj it dashed Into the sidewalk. Mr.\nand Mrs. Lewis who w-ere walking\ndown the pavement, \"simply disappeared.\"\nAuto Was Beyond Control.\nThe wildly driven auto struck the\nbank across the sidewalk, turned\nand ran up the walk some distance,\nfinally coming back to the road and\nstopping 200 feet away. The auto\nwas not under control.\nMr. Gaskell then described the efforts of himself, his chauffeur and\nMiss Johnston, a trained nurse, to\naid the Injured man and woman. He\nsent the driver to get the number of\nthe car that had struck the people\ndown. When be found Mrs. Lewis\nhe thought she was dying. Mr.\nLewis was nowhere to be seen, but\nlater appeared from on top of the\nbank aJbove the road like an apparition, with blood streaming down his\nface from a cut In the head. He\nI cried: \"Where is my wife? Is she\nIhurt?\"\nGave No Aid.\nMr. Gaskell described how they\ncarried the woman to the car. They\nhad been joined by Mr. Phillips, who\ni lived near, and who assisted. As\nj they were placing Mr. Lewis in the\nj car the men from the other machine\n1 appeared, but did not say anything.\nMr. Gaskell had to ask one of them\nthree times for his name. This was\nHilstrom. They did not assist. They\nwere in no condition to do so. Asked\nwhy they could not help, Mr. Gas-\nkell said one was very much the\nworse for liquor and the other ap-\n' peared stupefied. As the auto start-\n| ed for New Westminster with the Injured people, they were holding on\nj to the sides of the car. Mr. Phillips\npushed one of them away and he fell\nto the ground. The car left the men\nsprawled In a tangled heap beside\n, the road.\nCar Was Coin*? East.\nI William John Hall, Mr. Gaskell's\ndriver, corroborated the testimony\ngiven by his employer. It developed\nduring lhe cross-examination of\nIhis witness that a calf had been\nstruck hy Hilstrom's car just after\nIt passed the Gaskell car, and killed.\nThe witness was of the opinion that\nstriking the calf may have made the\ncar jump to the sidewalk; that it\n1 would not have done so If tho car\nhad not been driven so fast. It was\ngoing at leaBt thirty or thirty-five\nmiles an hour. He did not see the\ncalf or the people struck. He was\nlioking ahead.\nMr. A. J. Phillips testified to hearing the crash and going to the scene\nto render assistance. He said one\nI of the men, Wilson, was drunk;\n::::.'.rc:r. ho did not sac. but he did\nnot need to see him. The smell was\nj enough; It was the fumes of whiskey he smelted.\nArrested in Cnfe.\nChief Parkinson, of Burnaby, testified to receiving the information of\nthe tragedy, and tracing the automobile to an Abbott street gnrage In\nVancouver. There was blood on the\n'tire. He later arrested the men In\nla cafe. They had finished supper\nand were drinking. Wilson was very\ndrunk. Under cross examination the\nchief said Hllstrom did not appear\nintoxicated at that time, but impressed him as having been drinking; he seemed dazed. The witness\ndid not see him drink, though a\nsrlass of wine was In front nf him nn\nthe table; later Wilson ordered\ndrinks, but Hilstrom refused to\ndrink.\nMr. Baird did not allow Wilson or\nHilstrom to testify.\nThe jury added a rider to Its verdict, saying it found the woman\ncame to her death because of reckless and careless driving, but did not\nname the parties responsible.\n\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDt.WCOl'Vl-.t LAND DIVISION.\nNew Westminster District.\nTake Notice that I, Paul Briandt\nof the City of Vancouver, in the\nProvince of British Columbia, engineer, intend to apply for a license\nto prospect for coal, petroleum and\nnatural gas, on the following described lands;\nCommencing at a post marked\n\"No. 7 Northwesterly Corner Post,\"\nat Smith Road, 80 chains in an easterly direction along the shoreline;\n80 chains in a southerly direction;\n80 chains in a westerly direction\nand 80 chains in a northerly direction to the point of commencement,\nbeing submarine lands in the Delt-*,\n.Municipality, New Westminster District, joining Northerly Township\nThree (3), West Coast Meridian,\nSection Twenty-eight (28), in Vancouver Land Division, 'Containing\n640 acres, more or less.\nPAUL BRIANDT.\nCoroners.\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BD\u00EF\u00BF\u00BDDr. A.\nJ.
