fThree years ago I bu-ht a
poultry farm near Ontorla."
f'Hard work made the poultry
fajem pay and I had 900 laying
hehs in addition to hundreds of
tfier birds.
"Winn!e commenced to have
trouble, at home In Saskatoon and
was compelled to-work in order
to support the family. SJTe wanted
mother to take the. children. '
, J'l . drove froiu Califorala to
Saskatoon and when I returned to
the United Slates I bronght San
ford with me. I erred in de
claring I took him across the
boundary by saying that he was
only going into the country for a
short time. The statements that
I kidnaped him are ridiculous.
He came of his own accord and
with the fall knowledgefand con
sent o his mother, my sisSVln
nie. T should have got inSfcneb
with the immigration. authorities
when It was decided that he was
to stay, on the poultry farm- with
us.-
DirCcnlrtes Told
"San ford was a stupid boy and
one extremely hard .to handle. I
never abused htm though. I did
nnnish him at- times but then In a
mild war. The la-f was a source
of continuous trouble-' and one
rime disappeared and I had to
make- an extensive -search for
him." .
"About this time I had trouble
with neighbors. As a result of
this trouble some of them were
Jailed.. This did not make me at
all popular in the district. The
Police records will show of this
trouble.
"Diseased hens were put among
by own fowls and as a result I
lost msny of them."
