“PLEADS GUILTY TO THEFT CHARGE,” Brantford Expositor. February 15, 1933. Page 2. ---- Sentence Imposed on L. Earl— Two Elect Higher Court --- Leslie Brewerton and James Andrews and Leonard Earl were before Magistrate S. A. Blake and a large pile of drygoods in the county police court to-day. The drygoods, which are alleged to have been stolen from the stores of P. A. Sprowl and F. F. Balston, Burford, in recent robberies made a large heap in the court room and indicated the thieves were going in business in a wholesale way.

Leonard Earl pleaded guilty and was given a good record by both Crown Attorney W. M. Charlton and Provincial Officer Milligan. The court dealt with this case at once imposing a sentence of not less than three months and not more than two years. 

Brewerton and Andrews elected to go before a higher court and waived examination being committed by His Worship. Both men were convicted of thefts in Norfolk county and were sentenced to serve five years in a recent court held in Simcoe. They also are wanted in Hamilton and were brought from that city to Brantford by Provincial Officer Oliver who will take them back to face charges in that city.

In Town #03

[for Maedhros and Maglor week, hosted by @maedhrosmaglorweek]

“Hello, Laurë,” Maryann said, seeing the barefooted child holding one of her little brother’s hands as they looked at the tins of hard candies kept behind a glass display case in the general store. 

The girl glanced over at her and turned away without answering, hunching her shoulders like she didn’t want to be noticed. She appeared as dirty and boyish as ever, wearing a patched pair of pants and an old linen shirt that Maryann was sure she’d seen the oldest child in when he was her size. 

The town school teacher sighed. She felt disappointed, seeing yet another daughter in the community saddled with chores and childcare at the expense of an education and the chance to find more in life than a husband to care for and more children. There was very little she could do about it, though. 

Laurë’s family lived in the mountains. From what people said in town, the family lived there for several generations as active members of the community, and it wasn’t until the last ten years or so after most of them moved away that the remaining members became more reclusive. The father was a suspicious man and rumor had it he was mad as a child and probably still was. He cared not one whit about any social pressure Maryann exerted over the continued absence of his children from the schoolhouse. The mother, a strong woman named Nerdanel, was something of a folk-healer who could be convinced to help when a doctor proved useless or unavailable. She tried speaking with her, suspecting she benefited from some formal education herself and hoped that would make her more open to discussion. However, she was met with a similar stony refusal. By now there was little hope of ever seeing the girl in one of her classes.

“He’s Maglor.”

She started at a voice so close behind her, bringing a hand up to her chest. She turned around and looked up at Laurë’s older brother. Though he couldn’t be older than fifteen, he was already as tall and broad as most grown men in town.

He glared down at her, arms occupied by two heavy burlap bags filled with some kind of drygood the family needed. “Don’t call him that again.”

Who? She didn’t think that was one of the children’s names and she was almost positive the little boy was named Curufin. Did he mean his sister? That didn’t make any sense.

“My apologies,” She said, noticing how his hands gripped the sacs, knuckles turning white. Stepping back to disengage from whatever was going on, she bid a hasty farewell and walked away, heading to the clerk to make her purchases.

225 Years Ago

As I was reading through the daybook I’m working on, I realized that the entry I was viewing was 225 years old. There are a number of things here that people still buy and sell. Rum, panes of glass, cups and saucers, tea, knitting needles, and butter to name a few. Some, like muslin cravats, have fallen out of fashion.

“Thieves Steal Bolts of Cloth,” Montreal Star. March 13, 1942. Page 3. ---- Burglars Pierce Wall To Enter Shop and Take $4,000 Worth of Goods ---- Burglars who broke a 20-inch square hole through a 12-inch brick wall at the drygoods shop of Harry Fisher, 4129 St. Lawrence boulevard, during the night, removed $4,000 worth of cloth in bolts, and escaped while police were on the way to the store. 

Evidence that the burglars were disturbed in their work was seen in the yard where several bolts of cloth were found abandoned. The automobile used by the burglars was stolen from the garage of R. Goulet, 4161 Laval avenue, 

A citizen who saw the goods being removed from the rear of the premises at 4 o'clock this morning became suspicious and phoned police. Radio Constables R. Jones and J. Theriault investigated and found some of the goods in the yard. The stolen car was later discovered at St. Urbain street and Pine avenue.
