‘SUMMERSIDE BUREAU

OF THE GUARDIAN

W. Chester S. MacDonald, sti- —pendiary—magistrate fer Prince County, yesterday sentenced Wil- liam Wandell Larkin of Charlotte- town to three years in Dorchester Penitentiary. His comparion. Wil- jard Pius Finnan, 17 of Freetown received a two-year term in the same institution. Both men ear-

of jail breaking.

Larkin and Finnan touched off the most intensive manhunt in the history of the province when they escaped from the Prince County jail on October Ist by sawing the bars on the window of their cell and climbing over the bar- rier surrounding the jail.

Following their capture on Oct- ober 5th, they- appeared in cour: here the next afternoon when they both pleaded guilty to the charge and elected trial by mag- istrate. At that time Finnan*en- tered a plea of insanity which was not. accepted by the court.

In passing sentence this morn- ing Magistrate W. Chester S. Mac- Donald stated that this case has caused him a great deal of con-; cern and this sentence would be

the first heavy sentence he would have to hand down since recently being appointed magistrate.

Magistrate MacDonald noted that neither suspended sentence nor a previous term in prisen ap- peared to have done Larkin any good. Such a record left him no choice but to impose the three year term, he added.

Counsel for the defence, J. |Watson MacNaught, Q.C., noted that the accused felt that he was being wrongly kept in jail and that he thought he should be out- side.

Crown prosecutor George Mac- Mahon reviewed the accused’: previous record and requested that the maximum penalty of five years be imposed.

CHARGES WITHDRAWN

Two other charges against the accused, that of breaking and entering MacKenzie’s store at Kensington and of breaking and entering the store of Athol Cot- ton at Kensington, were with- drawn.

In Fimman’s case, Mr. Mac- Mahon noted that the accused was being held in jail on a drunk charge and had no previous re- cord. He also said that Finnan had no respect for the law and should be taught a lesson.:

Mr. MacNaught, who was not appearing for the accused but spoke as a friend of the court, noted that the accused had pre- viously pleaded insanity and that “in view of his actions in court he does not appear to be normal,” 'and requested that this be taken under consideration.

Magistrate MacDonald told the accused that Prince County jail was obviously not the place for him and that his whole trouble stemmed from drinking. He ako said that the accused would re- ceive psychiatric help in prison.
