It was Friday, the night when | members of the Montreal Cot- ! tons Company staff returned to make up the pay.In Valley- | field there was a young man who had lived in the town for [a year or more.Recently he had been relieved of his duties, twenties, \"in this same office.Although 1 | Valentine Shortis had lost his: job, he remained in town, because he was madly in love with one of the attractive young | ladies of the community.The re to his contemplated | n wonderful customers and we take this opportunity to say, \u201cThank you!\u201d g¥ matrimany had been worsened by the fact that the generous remittance from his well-to-do parents in Ireland had been cut off.As he took leave of his young lady at the usual strict hour of 10.30, on this Friday night, he had seemed more mysteriously assured than ever that he would find a solution to the money problem upon which their marriage.as he thought, depended.His half-gay manner, did not disclose however what was deep in his evil mind.After Shortis left the home of his lady-friend, he walked over to the Textile office where four of the staff, all in their mid- and all known intimately to Shortis, were completing the making-up of the ray envelopes.After chatting amicably with them for a time, he suddenly lurched across the table, seized A C.LABELLE TRANSPORT VALLEYFIELD OT à Ÿ à Ÿ à 6 & 8B £9 & 9 J.T.QUENNEVILLE

when an accurately auned second shot from Shorts fatally struck Loy down.Jack Lowe, realizing the hopelessness of fighting a frenzied man with a gun, grabbed the money and, followed by Arthur Leboeuf, the fourth young man in the office, dashed into the vault.To the ring of shots on steel, one of which struck the prostrate Wilson, Jack Lowe pulled the heavy door shut, The frantic Shortis realizing that he had committed murder and that the whole object of his mad escapade was behind the vaulted door, pleaded with Lowe and Leboeuf to give him the combination to open the vault.Lowe told him to

of the Le- boeuf imprisoned in the vault.The police were on the scene by this time and Shortis was taken to the local firestation which also held the town jail, then{on the site of ile present fire- \u2018station adjacent vo the City Hall on Market Square.As daylight came upon Val- leytield tnat bleak morning, \"citizens swuirred in their beas vaguely wondering why the mill r@histie had sounaed auring une very early morning hours, Word ot the tragic happenings of the midnight - hour traveled like wildfire throughout the town.Soon angry citizens were milling about the wind-swept streets.Only by the firm insistence of Mayor George Loy, the grief striken father of the murdered young man, were the citizens persuaded to maintain law and order and let the preliminary trial be conducted with Court Justice, The main trial was held at Beauharnois( for that was the seat of the court, for the district then) and proceeded only after 7 or 8 months had elapsed, during which time the Superior Court had appointed a Roga- tory Commission which travelled to Ireland, gleaning information on the family history of the prisoner at the bar.The plea of the Defence Counsel, on behalf of the prisoner, was that of insanity.The trial lasted for a month during which time the whole proceedings were given front page prominence in the daily newspapers.At the end, the twelve-man jury brought in a verdict of guilty, and e presiding Judge sentenced Shor- tis to be hanged on the Third of January 1898.The people, satisfied that Justice was to be & rendered, went about their pre- patallens LOF

coulrnuted Shortis\u2019 sentence vo that of life imprisomnent.Trouble and tension among the populace arose again, but with a new sinister threat of mob violence in the communities of Beauharnois and Valiey- neid.The authorities at the Beauharnois jail, even then erecting the scaftolding for the January hanging, were faced with the new problem of how to get their prisoner out of the district before the intended march on the Court House and jail where Shortis was awaiting death.The feeling was so intense and fraught with so much danger that one of the large railway companies, of its own accord, cancelled all trains to Beauharnois for a few days un- ul tempers had somewhat subsided.In the meantime, Sheriff La- Berge spirited his prisoner away.Being a paddler of ability, he loaded Shortis into a canoe and crossed the swiftly flowing River St.Lawrence somewhere in the vicinity of Caughnawaga, from where the prisoner was lodged 11 a penitentiary.The next forty years or more Shortis spent behind the heavy doors of that penitentiary.Released about 1937, he died two or three years later.The commutation of the death sentence to life imprisonment by the Governor-General, divided the Cabinet at Ottawa and caused the resignation of the Prime Minister.When the nation-wide Federal election was called the following July, the unfortunate dramatic climax to the Shortis\u2019 murder case played not a little part in bringing about the defeat of the government, Thus closed a case the like of which has seldom, if ever, been duplicated in the court annals of the land.Christmas Elf Concerned With Well-Being Of Cattle Jule-Nisse was not exactly a Danish version of Santa Claus.He was an elfish little old man who lived in the attic and was primarily concerned with the well-being of the cattle, keeping them quiet and contented, caring for them if the stable-hands neglected their duties.Nisse\u2019s name and assoclation with Christmas probably stems from his legendary tenancy of houses where peace and contentment prevailed.'Tis said he either avoided homes where contention ruled or played all sorts of gremlin-like tricks upon the occupants thereof.Danish youngsters, mindful of Nisse\u2019s long memory and watchful eye, put themselves upon their good behaviour as Christmas approaches.MARC H.VIAU Division of Ideal Petroleum (1959) Ltd.VALLE YFIELD Merry
