From the London, Ontario, Free
Press, we CLEAN some interesting facts
relative to Francis II. West, a young
man who attended the Institute at
| this place about four years ago, and
who, for some time conducted meat
market in Prescott, where he was
well, and we believe fayorably known.
1t appears from his own confessions
as witness, that he has been engaged
in petty thieyery in different parts of
Canada and at one time agreed to as
sist in burning a barn, which for some
reason was abandoned. For the at
tempted burning of large mill. two
parties were arrested. West being
called as witness, in his examination
disclosed having participated in crimes
for which he has since been arrested,
and which are likely to lead to his
incarceration after his. trial, soon to be
held. In his testimony referring to
his business in Prescott, he said:
/ failed in bushes and left creditors
behind; / have never received any
letters from Wisconsin, nor have
written home. / told people in Lucan
that / had absconded: came to Lucan
to see man named Leng, and to visit
the Donnely homestead; / had 800
when | came there, 300 of which |
received from my father and $50 from
a half sister; $500 | had collected on
old debts; / had pawned my watch and
sold coat and pair of boots, and b0r-
rowed money for the purpose of lead
ing people to believe that | was poor;
| carried this 800 around in my pock-
ct all the time; from November to
January | bummed around with the
boys, drinking, and having a goo0
time; | cannot remember whom
bummed with; after that / taught in
strumental music.
Further examination showed that
he had stolen two rifles from the Lu-
can armory, and several hens and a
COW from farmer. West was dis
covered boring holes in the mill and
pouring in oil, previous to setting fire
to it, but in some way he had his ac-
completes arrested for the deed. Upon
examination they were discharged.
The article referred to closes rs fol-
lows:
In a mastery address, his Honor
Judge Elliot reviewed the case and
discharged the prisoners. lie charac-
terized West as one of the worst char
acters he had ever met in the witness
box. and his evidence as totally I'M
worthy of belief.
West is now in prison awaiting his
examination.
