Bowman. - Sister Anna Cressman, wife of Pre. Samuel S Bowman, passed peacefully away at her home near Berlin, Ont., Sept. 21, 1908. Sister Bowman was a patient sufferer for about eleven months from a complication of diseases, having heart trouble, dropsy and also an abscess on one of the lungs. During about ten weeks of her sickness her mind was affected to such an extent that she remembered nothing about what occurred during that time. Two weeks before the end came her mind was fully restored. It was like waking from a long sleep. From that time on she was perfectly conscious until death relieved her of all earthly cares and sorrows. Sister Bowman realized that her end was drawing near and expressed her desire to depart this life and be with the Lord. She left a bright hope for the future. She was a consistent member of the Mennonite Church for many years. She leaves a sorrowing husband, three step-children, seven brothers and three sisters to mourn her departure. The funeral was held Aug 31, at the Berlin Church. The services at the home were conducted by Urias Weber and at the church by Bishops Daniel Wismer and Jonas Snider, who spoke from the texts, Rev. 14: 13 and Rom. 6: 23. She was aged 64 y. 7 m. 13

_______________

Amid every sign of respect from town and country alike, the body of Harry Cressman was interred on Sunday in the Didsbury cemetery, The deceased was in his forty-second year, having been born in Baden, Ontario, and owing to his long residence in the Didsbury district was well known by almost every resident. For some time he was associated with his two brothers, Bert and Eluid, local merchants, and his cheerfulness and good nature whilst so engaged won him a host of friends. His temperament indeed together with the integrity of his character were often as favorably commented upon his example of a well-spent Christian life. The funeral service was held in the Mennonite Church at three p.m., where an outside gathering of sympathisers swelled the total attendance, it is estimated, to five hundred people. Rev. Hullman, pastor of the church, officiated, and delivered a very comforting and helpful address. A quartette consisting of J. and H. Stickley and Gordon and Russell Sherick also materially assisted in the service by their singing, that old favorite "Shall we meet beyond the river" being rendered by them very appropriately. The pallbearers included--W. Liphardt, D. Tholman, J. Schantz, N. Swalm and M. Shantz. Among the relatives at the funeral, in addition to the mother of the deceased, there were six brothers present, Bruce (Bearberry, Alta.), Millo (Stavely), Douglas (Delia), and Bert, Eluid and Morgan (Didsbury). There were also present Mrs. Millo Cressman and R.D. Curdy. Upon and surrounding the casket the large number of floral offerings mutely testitfied to the respect and esteem in which deceased was held, and as a further expression of this feeling it was noted that nearly ninety cars followed the remains to their last resting place...

Trial of Hutchinson, son of Dr. William Hutchinson, Hespeler, on two other charges, namely, leaving the scene of an accident, and dangerous driving, will not proceed until after disposition of the criminal negligence count, Magistrate Blake stated.

Prior to the hearing. Magistrate Blake pointed out that he, personally, was not willing to sit in actual judgment of the case "as the accused's father is a personal friend of long standing." "In the interests. of justice it is much better it be tried in a higher court." he stated.

Professor Joslyn Rogers, ananlytical expert at the University of Toronto, told the court that from examination of the fender of the car in which Hutchinson allegedly collided with the deceased, and the clothes which the victim was wearing, he was certain that "it could have been the accused's car which struck him". He pointed out however, that he could not be sure.

"Blue-green paint on the clothing was identical with paint on the fender, but then there are a great many cars of exactly the same colour," he testified.

P.TO. Edward Mitchener told the court that the accused, in company with his father, came to police headquarters in Kitchener the day
following the accident. "Hutchinson told me that he had heard about the accident and said he wanted to tell police that while he was driving between Sunnyside and Kitchener that night, his car struck something, but that he didn't yet know what it was," the constable testifled.

"He said he guessed he hit another car or a trailer, and after stopping a short distance past where the Cressman accident occurred, drove back towards Preston but didn't find anything except a dead cat."

Acting Inspector W. Oliver said he took Cressman's clothes and the bent fender of Hutchinson's car down to Professor Rogers at Toronto. It was not until after Dr. Rogers reported his findings that Hutchinson was charged.

Lincoln Shantz, Cressman's neighbour, said he was resting in his house when he heard a "thud". He rushed out without waiting to put on his shoes and saw Cressman lying in a pool of blood on the pavement.

Mrs. Cressman said her husband out of the house to go to the nearby store at 10.30 Saturday might. "I saw him to the door and then sat down waiting for him to return. I noticed a lull in the traffic on the highway, then heard car, apparently coming very quickly. The next thing I heard was a distinct thud. I sensed at once that my husband had been hit," she related. "I was so stunned, sat still in the room until they came to call doctors and an ambulance."

Ironically, Cressman was busy at Sunday School work the evening he was injured, or he would have gone out sooner, Mrs. Cressman
told the court. Summing up the case, Crown Attorney W. P. Clement asserted there are "too many coincidences to all short of identification" of the river of the car which struck Cressman.

"That is a matter for the jury decide," the magistrate replied. Defence Counsel R. Meyer, Galt, ontended that the Crown had failed to prove wanton recklessness.. |

"Thus man was hurled about 40 feet by the impact which certainly implies a degree of violence - or was it just a gentle push?" retorted
the cadi.

In committing the acused for trial, Magistrate Blake declared: "It's one of those borderline cases and it is too important for me to
say there isn't sufficient evidence to try him on."

Hespeler Driver Acquitted In Death Of Sunnyside Man

Charge of Criminal Negligence Against Young Aircraftsman Is Dismissed; Vernon Cressman Died Shortly After He Was Found Lying on Highway.

(By Staff Writer)

Judge E. W. Clement dismissed, a charge of criminal negligence against Aircraftsman Hutchinson in county criminal court here, Tuesday. Charge against Hutchinson, son of Dr. W. G. Hutchinson. Hespeler, was sequel to an accident September 28, on the Kitchener-Galt highway, which resulted in the death of Vernon Cressman, Sunnyside.

Police testified Cressman was struck down by a car while walking on the highway in front of his home. Removed to Kitchener-Waterloo hospital, he died a few days later.

In giving judgment, Judge E. W Clement pointed out that the crown, represented by Crown Attorney W. P. Clement had produced no eyewitnesses and no evidence of negligence. He indicated further, that the fact Hutchinson was in charge of the car which struck the deceased, had not been definitely established.

"Even assuming that it was Hutchinson's car which struck Cressman, there is no proof of negligence," he contended.

Crown Attorney Clement admit- ted there was "no direct evidence", but asserted there was sufficient evidence in surrounding circumstances to prove the accident Robert couldn't have happened, except for negligence on the part of the driver of the car.

P. T. O. Edward Mitchener told the court that the accused, in company with his father, came to provincial police headquarters the day after Cressman was found lying in a pool of blood on the highway in front of his home.

"Hutchinson said he had heard about the accident and said he wanted to tell plice that while he was driving between Sunnyside and Kitchener that night, his car struck something but that he didn't know what it was," Constable Mitchener related.

Evidence by Prof. Joslyn Rogers of the University of Toronto analytical division testified that his examination of the victim's clothes and a dented fender of the Hutchinson car proved "It could have been Hutchinson's car which struck Cressman".

Crown Attorney Clement said he would "rest the crown's case on inferences that may be logically drawn from the evidence".
