"TWO GIVEN LONG TERM FOR THEFT," North Bay Nugget. December 14, 1942. Page 9. ---- Five Years in Penitentiary for Entering Stores at Englehart ---- Haileybury, Dec. 14 - Convicted here Saturday by Magistrate Atkinson on two charges of breaking and entering Englehart stores in the early hours of November 25, Emile Dumais [TOP] and Robert Chauvette [BOTTOM], both with prison records and both out of St. Vincent de Paul Penitentiary a few months, were sentenced to five years in Portsmouth penitentiary. Five other counts, four of them. similar in nature to those in which they were found guilty and the other one of being in illegal possession of house-breaking instruments, were not pressed by the crown.

Druggist Lauded After sentencing accused, the magistrate congratulated John Litster, Englehart druggist, on the part he had played in the case. Mr. Litster told the court how he had gone downstairs from his apartment after hearing sounds in his store below, and recognizing one man as Chauvette and noticing the other, who wore a handkerchief across the lower part of his face, and wearing a brown windbreaker similar to those in which accused were dressed in court, and of accompanying Provincial Constable Walker in search of the car in which the men escaped.

Thirty-one fountain pens, a similar number of pencils and a quantity of cigarettes were taken from the Litster store, and these were found later by Constables McDonald and Ainsley of the Kirkland Lake detachment of the O.P.P. in a dry creek bed not far from where the car in which Chauvette and Dumals were driving had stopped shortly before the officers arrested the pair.

[AL: Dumais had served a single previous term in the St. Vincent de Paul Penitentiary in Laval. He was 21, single, French Canadian, a construction worker in Rouyn, Quebec, where he lived. He was convict #7159 at Kingston Penitentiary and worked in an construction workcrew outside the walls. In March 1944 he was transferred to Manitoba Penitentiary, and participated in a protest later that year against this transfer. He was released by parole in 1946. Chauvette had also served a single previous term in the St. Vincent de Paul Penitentiary in Laval, as well as four terms in the Montreal Jail. He was 21, single, French Canadian, a construction worker as well on the same crew as Dumais, and from Lakenik, Quebec. Interestingly, he was removed to Quebec for a 'religious profanation trial' and given a consecutive six month term! He fought his conviction but his appeal was dismissed in January 1943. He was convict #7223 and worked in a few different workshops at Kingston Penitentiary. He was transferred with Dumais in 1944, becoming inmate #4286 at Saskatchewan Penitentiary. He took part in a strike in the tailor shop in August 1944 at that prison. He was eventually released in 1947.]
