The craft allegedly had been time-bombed by a Quebec City, Que., jeweler who wanted to get rid of his wife. Parker told police he had de cided "four days ago" to "kill this man." Authorities quoted him that he still plans to seek revenge after his release. The Brown university fresh man faced arraignment on an armed robbery charge in Walpole district court today. He was ar rested Saturday night, 20 min utes after liquor store owner Robert Wilkinson reported he had been robbed at gunpoint. Kevenge Goal "To understand what I did you will have to understand about my family," Parker reportedly said. "We were very close. I loved my father more than anything in the world. "I was very angry to think that a man could take the lives of 23 people, including that of the father I loved so much. I have been thinking it over ever since and I decided that I would kill this man." Police said the youth referred to J. Albert Guay, the jeweler, who allegedly master-minded the time-bomb plot.

"I made up my mind four days ago," Parker told police. "I got a gun but I didn't have any money. My allowance wouldn't get me to Canada.

Parker, a native of London who came to this country several years ago, spoke with a British accent. He said that when he held up the store owner and his wife, "I told them I didn't intend to steal the money from them. I told them I would pay it back as soon as I could get hold of some more." t I 1 SO MUCH... DEPENDS OH 600D BRAKES llf Don't wait until your brakes are dangerous.
